connivancen.

/kəˈnʌɪvəns/

Forms: 1600s–1800s connivence, 1700s– connivance.

Etymology: < French connivence, or < Latin co(n)nīvēntia , < co(n)nīvēnt-em , present participle of co(n)nīvēre : see connive v. and -ence suffix. Originally always written -ence (though often altered in re-editions and dictionary quotations); the spelling connivance is rare before 1689, but has prevailed since c1720. Phillips and Kersey (up to 1721) have connivence, Bailey (1721–), followed by Johnson, connivance; but this is not justified either by Latin or French derivation.

a. The action of conniving; the action of winking at, overlooking or ignoring (an offence, fault, etc.); often implying secret sympathy or approval: tacit permission or sanction; encouragement by forbearing to condemn.
