Usage Note

Riscossa means a recovery or rallying after a setback — la riscossa della squadra (the team's comeback). In an older, more literary sense it can mean the recapture of territory or freedom. The phrase alla riscossa means 'to the rescue' or 'making a comeback'. Do not confuse it with riscossione (collection, of money).

Examples

"Il cerchione della ruota è ammaccato."

Natural Translation
