converging plate boundaries. continent to continent plate boundary converging if you want to be more specific.
to converge means to bring something together, that's how I always remembered. Transform boundaries move side to side, and are the reason for mainly fault lines, such as the San Andreas Fault in California. All plate boundaries do occur at subduction zones.
