Congregabo

Congregabo is a Latin verb meaning “I will gather” or “I shall bring together.” It is the first person singular future active indicative form of congregare, a regular verb of the first conjugation meaning to assemble, collect, or bring together. Congregare is transitive and commonly takes a direct object in the accusative, often with an accompanying phrase indicating where or to whom the gathering takes place.

Etymology and principal parts: Congregare derives from con- “together” and greg- “flock, crowd,” reflecting the sense of bringing together a group. The principal parts are congregare (to gather), congregavi (I gathered), congregatum (gathered). The present stem for the future active is congregabo, with the standard first-conjugation endings: -abo, -abis, -abit, -abimus, -abitis, -abunt.

Usage and examples: Congregabo is used to express a future act of gathering. It takes a direct object in the accusative and can be complemented by location or destination phrases. Examples: “Congregabo turbam ante ianuam” (I will gather a crowd before the door), “Congregabo eos in urbem” (I will gather them into the city), or “Congregabo discipulos in scholā” (I will gather the students in the school). The verb forms the basis for related constructions such as the imperfect, perfect, and pluperfect tenses in the same conjugation pattern.

See also: Related forms include the present indicative “congrego” (I gather) and the passive forms of congregare. The root greg- connects to other Latin words in the same semantic field, such as congregation and disaggregate through different affixes.
