• Structure: 召集, read しょうしゅう, means assembling people by official authority or order.
• Basic usage: It appears in formal contexts such as summoning soldiers or convening a parliament.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Difference from 招集
  • 招集 has the same pronunciation and is widely used for calling people together. 召集 carries the sense of a summons under official authority, so identical pronunciation does not make the spellings freely interchangeable.
