核心畫面

兩樣東西「一起掉進同一個點」。字根就是這樣拼出來的：co-（一起）+ incidere（落進去），像兩顆石頭同時落進同一格。落進的那個「點」可以是時間上的一刻、可以是想法上的同一個位置、也可以是地圖上的同一條線——所以 coincide 講的不是「像」，而是「剛好落在同一處」。From the word’s history
From Medieval Latin coincidere: con- (together) + in- (into) + cadere (to fall) — literally "to fall together into the same place". That literal picture survives almost untouched in every modern use.
來自法語 coïncider、中世紀拉丁語 coincidere：co-（一起）+ in-（進入）+ cadere（落下）。「一起落下到同一點」這個字面畫面幾乎原封不動留在現代用法裡：無論是兩件事同時發生、兩個人意見相同，還是兩條線重疊，都是「一起落在同一個位置」。
