Tips

usage

Three layered senses worth keeping straight: (1) physical — rivers and streams flowing into a larger body; (2) figurative — a person or group merging into a larger whole (a crowd, movement, current of history); (3) technical — software importing data, where 汇入 contrasts with 导出 (dǎochū, 'export').
