regathering
Assembling once more
Regathering is the act of gathering again—reassembling people or things that were previously together, then dispersed.
A family regathering brings relatives back together after time apart.
The word also applies to collecting scattered materials or thoughts: After the interruption, she needed a moment for regathering her concentration.
