Convenery

/kənˈvenəri/ noun

Definition

An assembly, gathering, or convocation that has been formally convened or called together (archaic formal term).

Etymology

Derived from 'convene' plus the suffix '-ery' (denoting a place, practice, or collection of things), creating a formal noun for an assembled group.

Kelly Says

The suffix '-ery' (like in 'bakery' or 'embroidery') turns 'convene' into 'convenery'—a beautiful example of how English builds words by describing what happens in a place or practice!
