To come together from different directions and meet at a point, or to tend toward a common result.
From Latin 'convergere', combining 'con-' (together) and 'vergere' (to bend or incline). The mathematical and scientific senses developed in the 17th century, extending the physical meaning to abstract concepts.
Converge captures one of the fundamental patterns of nature and thought - from rivers converging into deltas to ideas converging into solutions. The word embodies the beautiful mathematical concept that different paths can lead to the same destination.
