Synchronization is the process of making things happen at the same time or work together in the same rhythm or speed. It can refer to clocks, computers, music, or movements.
From 'synchronize' plus the noun suffix '-ation'. 'Synchronize' comes from Greek 'synchronos' meaning 'happening at the same time', from 'syn-' (together) and 'khronos' (time).
When you walk with a friend and your steps slowly match, that’s natural synchronization. From fireflies flashing together to phones syncing data, the universe seems strangely eager to line things up in time.
