Usage notes
- Often used reflexively: rallegrarsi di/per qualcosa = to be glad about something. Learners often forget the reflexive form changes the meaning.
- In everyday speech, tirare su or far sentire meglio can sound more natural for cheering up a person emotionally.
- As a transitive verb, it usually takes avere in compound tenses: ha rallegrato tutti.
