    The word inhere has a Latin origin. It is obtained from the word inhaerēre.
    It is formed from two words: the Latin prefix 'in' and haerēre. The word haerēre means 'to stick'. 'Inhere' means 'to be innate'. Inhered, inhering and inheres are the past tense, continuous tense and present tense (third person singular) of the verb 'inhere'. When something inheres in a certain thing, it is said to exist permanently in the thing of concern. The thing inherent could be an attribute or quality or element of the given thing.
