Latin

Etymology

From ad- +‎ colligere (“gather”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /akˈkɔʎʎere/

Verb

*accolligere (Proto-Italo-Western-Romance)

1. gather
2. receive, take in

Reconstruction notes

As with the base-verb colligere, the etymologically-unexpected stress position in Romance (*accólligere for expected *accollígere) presumably reflects a restructuring of the verb based on rhizotonic conjugations such as the 3SG *accólligit (*/akˈkɔʎʎet/ < */akˈkɔl(e)jet/).
