Morphology

merging = merge (transparent) = merge + ing

Present-participle/adjectival use of 'merge' forming 'merging' meaning 'coming together', which is directly inferable from the base verb.

Etymology

The adjective merging also comes from the Latin root mergere, meaning 'to dip' or 'to plunge'. A helpful image is two ideas or currents 'plunging' into one, as in submerge or emerge, which is why merging describes parts that come together and flow as one.
