Eine geplante Zusammenkunft von Personen, um über ein Thema zu sprechen oder etwas zu entscheiden.

The word "Meeting" in German is a borrowed noun from English, meaning a "meeting" or "gathering," typically for business or official purposes. Unlike purely German compounds, "Meeting" does not break down into separate German words.

Similar words in German include:

  • Besprechung (discussion, meeting)
  • Sitzung (session, meeting)
  • Treffen (meeting, informal gathering)

Differences:

  • Meeting is often used in business or international contexts, sometimes sounding more modern or formal.
  • Besprechung is typically used for work-related or formal discussions within organizations.
  • Sitzung often refers to formal sessions like committee meetings.
  • Treffen is broader and can refer to any kind of meeting, including informal social gatherings.
