The act or process of coming together or converging; a meeting point or state of having converged.
From converge + -ment (Latin suffix forming nouns from verbs, indicating action or result). This less common noun form emphasizes the process itself rather than the final point of convergence.
Though 'convergence' is the modern standard form, 'convergement' appears in older scientific and philosophical texts where writers valued the suffix '-ment' for emphasizing the action itself—the slow, gradual process of coming together.
