“concur” in Latin

The English word concur itself goes back to Latin currō, through concurro.

Riddle & Arnold A Copious and Critical English–Latin Lexicon, 1864

concur
to concur (= agree) with, consentire: not to concur with, dissentire; dissidere; discrepare: to concur with anybody, consentire or congruere cum aliquo; idem sentire cum aliquo (assentiri alicui de aliqua re, Cic., by no means adjicere alicui).
To meet, convenire in unum locum (find themselves in the same place at the same time): (inter se) congruere (agree). (the words are found in this connexion and order.) convenire in unum locum atque inter se congruere (e.g., Cic., Roscius, 22, 62; cum multae causae convenisse unum in locum atque inter se congruere videntur): if two consonants, vowels, concur, si binae consonantes colliduntur (Quint.): *si binae vocales inter se concurrunt (compare with Auct. ad Her., 4, 12, 18).
To forward or favor, alicui rei favere (e.g., illius honori favent omnia, every thing concurs towards his advancement).
