Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Always use "inherent in" instead of "inherent of". For example, say "The risk is inherent in the process" instead of "The risk is inherent of the process".
Common error
Avoid using "of" after "inherent". The correct preposition is "in". "Inherent" describes something that is an essential or permanent part of something else, and it requires the preposition "in" to connect it properly.
