recollect
recollect: [16] Recollect originated in Latin as recolligere, a compound verb formed from the prefix re- ‘again’ and colligere ‘gather’ (source of English collect). At first it simply meant literally ‘gather again’, but in the post-classical period it was extended metaphorically to ‘recall, remember’. English acquired it through its past participle stem recollect-.
recollect (v.)
"remember, recover knowledge of," 1550s, from Latin recollectus, past participle of recolligere, literally "to collect again," from re- "again" (see re-) + colligere "gather" (see collect). Related: Recollected; recollecting. The pronunciation is based on recollection.
