>That's "oporaviti se", i.e. recover from general weakness caused by ilness. You get well, and then you need a few more days to recuperate. At least that's how I understand the word. I've also heard it used in context of "recuperate from the long travel" or "recuperate after a few sleepless nights".

Sure it has more than one connotation and more than one meaning, but one of it's main meanings is to recover from illness.

Just about anything can be nit picked to death, but in fact, it does mean that. Actually, now that I think about it, 'recover' does too. Have you ever heard, "How's his fever?" "He's recovering."
