Usage notes
- Use radunare for bringing people, animals, or things together physically; raccogliere is more common for collecting objects or abstract information.
- For troops or supporters, radunare sounds more formal or organized; riunire is broader and often less military.
- Usually takes avere: ho radunato la squadra. Reflexive radunarsi means “to gather” intransitively: ci siamo radunati in piazza.
