Coalescing

“Coalescing” 指原本分散的个体、意见或液滴逐渐合并为一个整体,语气正式,常见于学术、政治与科技语境,如 coalescing around a plan(逐渐团结到一项方案周围)。

  1. “Several small parties are coalescing into a broader coalition.” (几个小党派正合并成更广泛的联盟。)
  2. “Droplets on the window were slowly coalescing into larger streams.” (窗上的水珠正慢慢汇成更大的水流。)
  3. “Ideas from different teams are coalescing into a unified product vision.” (各团队的想法正汇聚成统一的产品愿景。)

来自拉丁语 coalescere,由 co-(一起)与 alescere(成长)组成,意为“一同长成一体”。

“co-” 表示共同;词干 “-alesce” 表合并生长;“-ing” 表示正在合并或汇聚的过程。

政治学中描述派系 coalescing;物理学中描述液滴 coalescing;商业战略讨论里常指资源、标准或团队的整合汇聚。

  • 原形: coalesce
  • 名词: coalescence
  • 固定搭配: “coalescing into” (合并成), “coalescing around” (围绕……凝聚)

“co-” 一起 + “alesce” 长成一体——coalescing 就是分散的东西正在合并到一起。

“Over weeks of debate, opposing views kept coalescing until the committee finally agreed on one proposal.” (经过数周辩论,对立观点逐渐汇聚,委员会终于就一项提案达成一致。)
