Word usage

  • Note
    "交汇" is different from "交会". "交会" means joining at a certain point, and is used for things other than water flow and airflow, especially for traffic, roads, etc.; "交汇" means gathering and mingling, generally used for water flow, airflow, etc. The result of "交汇" is that things melt into one.
