riconsegna

return, redelivery

noun ree-kohn-SEH-nyah Rare

Usage Note

Riconsegna refers specifically to handing something back to its owner — a rented item, a leased vehicle, or a parcel. It is distinct from consegna (delivery) because the 're-' prefix signals the act of giving back. Common in logistics, rental contracts, and postal contexts.

Examples

"La riconsegna dell'auto è prevista per lunedì."

Natural Translation

The return of the car is scheduled for Monday.
