Explanation: This word is a present active participle, meaning 'gathering together' or 'assembling'. It describes an action that is ongoing or habitual. It is a compound word formed from the preposition 'σύν' (syn), meaning 'with' or 'together', and the verb 'κροτέω' (kroteō), meaning 'to strike, beat, clap'. Thus, it literally means 'to strike together' or 'to beat together', which evolved to mean 'to bring together' or 'to assemble'. It is used to describe the act of collecting people, forces, or resources.
