In plain English: A connector is something that joins two separate things together so they can work as one.
"The connector fits securely into the wall socket to power the laptop."
Usage: A connector is an object or device used to join two separate items together, such as a plug linking cables or a bridge spanning a gap. Do not use this word to describe a person, even though it literally means "one who connects."
The word connector is formed by adding the suffix -or to the verb connect. This construction follows a standard pattern where the agent or instrument performing an action receives the -or ending.
