'converge' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'convergere,' where 'con-' meant 'together' and 'vergere' meant 'to incline.'

'convergere' transformed into the French word 'converger,' and eventually became the modern English word 'converge' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'to incline together,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to come together from different directions and meet at a point.'
