Synonym Chooser

Some common synonyms of coincident are coeval, contemporaneous, contemporary, simultaneous, and synchronous. While all these words mean "existing or occurring at the same time," coincident is applied to events and may be used in order to avoid implication of causal relationship.

The meanings of coeval and coincident largely overlap; however, coeval refers usually to periods, ages, eras, eons.

The words contemporaneous and coincident are synonyms, but do differ in nuance. Specifically, contemporaneous is more often applied to events than to people.

contemporaneous accounts of the kidnapping

While in some cases nearly identical to coincident, contemporary is likely to apply to people and what relates to them.

Abraham Lincoln was contemporary with Charles Darwin

In some situations, the words simultaneous and coincident are roughly equivalent. However, simultaneous implies correspondence in a moment of time.
