Comments: | Not sure that these glosses capture the nuance correctly. I think this word describes a type of relationship characterized by a high degree of mutual understanding. Something closer to "finishing each other's sentences," "reading each other's minds," "operating on the same wavelength," etc. The current glosses are closer in meaning to something like "being mentally acute / alert / sharp" or "being able to read the room." |
