Etymology: "Connex" is a rare English noun meaning something with a link or association to another element or concept. It comes from Latin "connexus," the past participle of "connectere," meaning "to bind together," itself built from "com-" ("together") and "nectere" ("to tie" or "to bind"). The same Latin verb gave English "connect," so "connex" is essentially a more compact relative of that familiar word, preserving the older sense of tying things together.
