adv. in or into one group, gathering, or place

The word "together" originates from Old English tōgædere, combining the preposition tō ("to") and gædere (an early form of "gather"). The term literally meant "to a gathering" or "into union," reflecting the idea of collective action or proximity. Over time, gædere evolved into "gather," while the fused form tōgædere simplified into "together," retaining its core meaning of unity or simultaneity.
