Understanding Contemporaneous: Definition and Examples

Contemporaneous means something that exists or happens at the same time as something else. It can refer to two or more events, objects, or people that are concurrent or coexistent.

For example:

* The two politicians were contemporaneous, meaning they were both active in politics during the same time period.
* The novel and the film adaptation of it were contemporaneous, meaning they were both released at the same time.

In this context, "contemporaneous" is used to emphasize that the two things being compared are from the same time period, and not from different times.
