Etymology

The term 'jelling' derives from the noun 'jell', which comes from the Middle English 'gelle', meaning to congeal or set, acquired during the late 19th century. 'Jell' likely has connections to the Old French 'geler' (to freeze) and the Latin 'gelare'. Over time, its colloquial use grew, particularly in American English, where it evolved to encompass both the literal process of setting a mixture and the metaphorical sense of ideas or teams coming together. The usage has expanded to signify collaboration, synergy, and the effective unification of thoughts or actions, broadening its appeal in various professional and social contexts.
