Characteristic; emblematic (7)
I believe the answer is:
typical
I believe this is a double definition.
'characteristic' is the first definition.
(associated in meaning)
'emblematic' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)
(Other definitions for typical that I've seen before include "Characteristic (of someone/something)" , "Average" , "Stock" , "Characteristic of a particular person or thing" , "Representative, standard" .)
