Kokoonnutua

Kokoonnutua is a Finnish verb that translates to "to gather," "to assemble," or "to convene" in English. It is used to describe people coming together for a specific purpose or event. The verb is commonly used in everyday conversation as well as in more formal contexts.

The infinitive form of the verb is "kokoonnutua." The present tense conjugation for "minä" (I) is "kokoonnun," for "sinä" (you, singular) is "kokoonnut," for "hän" (he/she) is "kokoonnutuu," for "me" (we) is "kokoonnumme," for "te" (you, plural) is "kokoonnutte," and for "he" (they) is "kokoonnutuvat." The past tense forms follow a similar pattern.

Examples of its usage include "Me kokoonnumme illalliselle" (We are gathering for dinner) or "Poliitikot kokoonnutuvat tänään keskustelemaan uudesta laista" (The politicians are convening today to discuss the new law). The verb implies a deliberate act of coming together, rather than a chance encounter. It can also be used in a more general sense of a group forming or existing. For instance, a crowd could be described as "kokoonnutunut" (gathered). The context usually clarifies the specific meaning.
