concord
concord, concordance

An ergative language of the type described above is a weak type one because just before the establishment of the nominative the verb showed concordance to the agent whereas in ergative languages of the strong type the verb shows concordance to the subject - members.pgv.at/homer/INDOEURO/syntax.htm
There appears to be something called \'semantic concordance\' (www.nyu.edu/its/humanities/ach_allc2001/posters/bentivogli/... but I\'m not too sure it is relevant here.
Merriam-Webster – concordance
1 : an alphabetical index of the principal words in a book or the works of an author with their immediate contexts
2 : concord, agreement
