Combine into one

Mix is about combining things that were separate.

You mix ingredients when cooking, mix colors when painting, mix sounds when producing music.

A mix is the result—a particular combination: a mix of styles, a trail mix.

To mix with people is to socialize: She doesn't mix well at parties.

To mix it up is to fight or compete aggressively.

A mix-up is a confusion or mistake.
