The Nuance Difference: "毎年" vs "集める"

In Japanese, both 毎年 and 集める are often translated to English but have distinct usages. 毎年 (まいとし (maitoshi)) represents "every year" (Level: N5) and typically represents Indicates an action or event that occurs yearly. 「毎年」 can also be read 'mainen', but 'maitoshi' is more common in N5 level spoken Japanese.. On the other hand, 集める (あつめる (atsumeru)) translates to "to collect, to gather (transitive)" (Level: N4) and is used for To gather things or people together. The subject performs the action of gathering an object. Mixing these up can sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers!
