A more thorough explanation: In legal English, the term “cognate” refers to a word that is derived from the same root as another word, or is related to another word by virtue of having a common origin. In the context of law, cognate terms may be used to describe related concepts or provisions within a legal document or statute.
Example: The court considered the cognate relationship between the two parties when determining the extent of their liability in the contract dispute.
