Root Explanation

Consentaneously → It is formed from "con-" (meaning together) and "sentire" (meaning to feel or perceive) and the suffix "-ously" (meaning in a manner). The word describes the act of feeling or perceiving something together, indicating agreement or harmony in feelings or opinions.

Memory Tip

Think of people 'together' ('con-') who 'feel' ('sentire') the same way — that's why consentaneously means agreeing in feelings.
