Synonyms & nuances
A close synonym is 'יחד עם' (yakhad im), which means 'together with' and emphasizes companionship in a more explicit way. While 'ביחד' can stand alone to signify unity, 'יחד עם' often stresses the inclusion of another person or group, making it more specific in certain contexts.
Culture
'ביחד' has its roots in the Hebrew root 'יחד' which conveys the idea of unity and togetherness.

Fun fact: in modern Hebrew, the concept of 'togetherness' is not just limited to physical proximity but also extends to emotional support and solidarity.
