More About Solidary
What does solidary mean?
Solidary is used to describe things or situations involving multiple people being united in responsibility or a shared interest.
For example, in the context of finance, a solidary debt is one that multiple people share the responsibility for repaying. The person who is owed the debt can demand repayment from any or all of the debtors.
Solidary is rarely used. When you see it in text, there’s a good chance it’s a misspelling of a more common word, such as solitary (which means alone or done without others, making it nearly an opposite of solidary) or the related noun solidarity (meaning a state of unity or community due to common responsibilities or interests).
Example: Interest groups provide solidary benefits to members, such as networking opportunities and companionship.
Where does solidary come from?
The first records of solidary come from around the 1810s. It ultimately comes from the Old French solide, meaning “solid” or “compact.”
