connect
Bridge two points
Connect means to join or link things together.
Wires connect to terminals, roads connect cities, flights connect through hubs.
People connect when they form relationships or find common ground: We really connected at the conference.
To connect the dots is to perceive relationships between separate facts.
A connecting flight gets you from one leg of a journey to another.
