Root Explanation

Synchroneity → It is formed from "syn-" (meaning together) and "chronos" (meaning time) and the suffix "-ity" (meaning the state or quality of). The word refers to the state of occurring at the same time or together in time.

Memory Tip

Think of things happening 'together' ('syn-') in 'time' ('chronos') — that's what synchroneity means.
