About This Root
From Latin haerēre (to stick, cling). Produces two distinct word families: physical/abstract attachment (adhere, adherent, adhesive, cohere, coherent, inherent) and the 'stuck/frozen' sense of hesitation (hesitate, hesitant, hesitancy) — literally being stuck and unable to move forward.
