[Back-formation from Middle English mixt, mixed, mixed, from Anglo-Norman mixte, from Latin mixtus, past participle of miscre, to mix; see meik- in Indo-European roots.]

mixa·ble adj.
Synonyms: mix, blend, mingle, merge, amalgamate, coalesce, fuse2
These verbs mean to put into or come together in one mass so that constituent parts or elements are diffused or commingled. Mix is the least specific: The cook mixed eggs, flour, and sugar. Greed and charity don't mix.
To blend is to mix intimately and harmoniously so that the components lose their original definition: The clerk blended mocha and java coffee beans. Snow-covered mountains blended into the clouds.
Mingle implies combination without loss of individual characteristics: "Respect was mingled with surprise" Sir Walter Scott. "His companions mingled freely and joyously with the natives" Washington Irving.
Merge and amalgamate imply resultant homogeneity: Tradition and innovation are merged in this new composition. Twilight merged into night. "The four sentences of the original are amalgamated into two" William Minto.
Coalesce implies a slow merging: Indigenous peoples and conquerors coalesced into the present-day population.
Fuse emphasizes an enduring union, as that formed by heating metals: "He diffuses a tone and spirit of unity, that blends, and (as it were) fuses, each into each" Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
