Episode: Collimate
Description: Collimate is a verb that means to make parallel.
The Latin word collineare (co lynn ee ARE ay) means to ‘align.’ When we collimate things, we put them in line or make them parallel.
I tried to collimate all the items on my desk because I really like order. But all the chaos in the office makes it impossible for things to remain in a straight line.
