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

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

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