When Theias shot an arrow into the tree â or when a boar used its tusks to rend the tree's bark â Adonis was born from the tree. This myth fits both Adonis' nature as a vegetation god and his origins from the hot foreign desert lands where the myrrh tree grew.
intrinsic. adj. 1. of or relating to the essential nature of a thing; inherent. 2. (Anatomy) anatomy situated within or peculiar to a part: intrinsic muscles. [C15: from Late Latin intrinsecus from Latin, inwardly, from intrÄ within + secus alongside; related to sequÄ« to follow].
Use the adjective inherent for qualities that are considered permanent or cannot be separated from an essential character. We use the adjective inherent to describe attributes that are part of the essential nature of something. It's different from you being tall, rather than being a description, it has to be a quality and this quality is unchangeable.
