Italian word

ritiro

withdrawal, retreat, pickup (of a parcel)

Looks like

retire

to stop working at the end of one's career

⚠️ The trap

'Ritiro' covers withdrawal, retreat, or collection of items. It does NOT mean retirement from work. Say 'andare in pensione' for retiring from a career.

To say "to stop working at the end of one's career" in Italian:

andare in pensione (for to retire from work)

"ritiro" in English means:

withdrawal, retreat, pickup (of a parcel)

Example

"Il ritiro del pacco è disponibile dal lunedì al venerdì."

"Package pickup is available Monday to Friday."
