commensurate
의미: Corresponding in size, extent, or degree; proportional or in proper proportion.
Commensurate is most often followed by 'with' — 'a salary commensurate with experience.' It indicates that two things are appropriately matched in scale or degree. The word is standard in job advertisements, academic writing, and legal contexts. It carries a formal tone and implies fairness or appropriateness of proportion. 'Incommensurate' (not matching) is its opposite, though 'disproportionate' is more commonly used.
