How it's used
While often seen in news reports regarding public order, this term carries a formal and slightly military or tactical tone. It implies a deliberate gathering for a specific purpose rather than a casual meetup among friends. Use 聚集 or 圍埋 when describing people hanging out or gathering in a more relaxed or everyday context.
Examples
The protesters are assembling in the square.
When will they finish assembling?

Common mistake
Learners often use this for social gatherings, but it sounds too stiff or official for casual events. It is best reserved for organized groups, troops, or crowds in formal or news-related settings.
