Other forms: converges, converged, converging
To converge is to come together towards one point. The roads converge, converge on the square, converging evidence.
It takes on when a place is named. Converging evidence is the strongest kind there is: several independent lines pointing the same way is far better than one line however good. Its opposite is diverge, and the two are exact mirrors.
