From Latin 'concurrere' meaning 'to run together,' composed of 'con-' (together) and 'currere' (to run). The suffix '-ent' (being in a state) was added to form the adjective, then '-ly' to create the adverb.
Breakdown
con- (together) + curr (run) + -ent (being in a state) + -ly (adverb suffix) = concurrently
