Etymology: "Congruities" is simply the plural of "congruity," so it is the form you use when speaking of several points of agreement at once. The singular "congruity" came into English from Old French "congruité," which in turn descends from the Latin "congruitas," a noun built on "congruere," meaning "to come together" or "to agree." That Latin verb is the same root behind "congruent" and "congruous," so the word's core idea has always been things meeting or fitting together neatly.
