To meet

Question

I ai utilisé "se réunir" au lieu de "se retrouver" ou "se rejoindre" mais ce choix n'était pas accepté ? Pourquoi ?

Accepted Answer

se réunir has a bit of a different flavor, more like to "hold a meeting". The standard word in French would be one of the given options.

Answer

Hi Frank,We really need one of the French ladies to comment here because there are subtle nuances.Se réunir  --> reassemble / amalgamate (or re. Chris above)Se retrouver --> get together / meet (perhaps previously agreed between friends)Se rejoindre -->  converge / coincideHope this helps.Jim

Answer

Bonjour à tous,
Chris is right that "se réunir" is mostly used in a work/formal context, like a meeting. If you are talking about meeting with friends (informal context), as per the context of this writing exercise, then you will use "se retrouver" or "se rejoindre". 
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
