Contiguous

from Word of the Day Hosted by Word of the Day

Contiguous is an adjective that means sharing next or together in sequence. The Latin word contiguus (con TEE goose) means ‘touching.’ Our word of the day is derived from this adjective and has been around the English language since the early 16th century. Here’s an example of its use The contiguous businesses had a difficult time getting along. Maybe there was something about two touching buildings that made them too close for comfort.
