用法說明
How is "Meet" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Meet"?
meet with vs meet up with vs meet
- meet 通常指與某人初次見面、認識，或指參加一個預先安排好的會議或約會。
- meet with 在美式英語中常用來表示「與某人會面（通常是為了討論事情）」，帶有正式或商務的意味。
- meet up with 則強調「與某人碰面、聚會」，通常是非正式、社交性質的，且雙方是約好時間地點見面。 EN: I will meet my new colleagues at the orientation tomorrow. 翻譯: 我明天會在迎新會上認識我的新同事。
EN:The manager will meet with the client to discuss the contract.
翻譯:經理將會與客戶會面，討論合約事宜。
EN:Let's meet up with some friends for dinner this weekend.
翻譯:我們這週末和朋友碰個面一起吃晚餐吧。
總結建議
在正式或商務場合討論會面時，使用 meet with；若是非正式的社交聚會，則使用 meet up with；而單純指初次認識或參加會議時，用 meet 即可。

正式書寫注意：在正式書信、報告或學術寫作中，應避免上述口語用法。請使用更完整、結構清晰的句子來表達會面安排，例如 "arrange a meeting"、"schedule an appointment" 或 "convene"，並避免使用引述對話或填充停頓的結構。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Meet"?Which "Meet" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I will meet you at the station tomorrow.
✓I will meet you at the station tomorrow.
雖然句子本身正確，但許多學習者會將 'meet' 誤用為 'meet with'。'Meet' 通常用於初次見面或約定見面；'meet with' 則多用於正式會議或討論。此處為一般見面，用 'meet' 即可。
×I want to meet with my new colleague.
✓I want to meet my new colleague.
初次見面某人時，應使用 'meet' 而非 'meet with'。'Meet with' 通常用於已認識的人之間進行正式討論或會議。
×We are going to meet together at the park.
✓We are going to meet at the park.
'Meet' 已包含 'together'（一起）的含義，因此 'meet together' 是冗詞。直接使用 'meet' 即可。
×I met a accident on my way home.
✓I had an accident on my way home.
'Meet' 不能用於表示「遭遇」意外或壞事。應用 'have' 或 'encounter'。'Meet' 主要用於見人或滿足要求。
×I will meet you in next week.
✓I will meet you next week.
表示未來時間（如 next week, tomorrow, on Monday）時，前面不需加介系詞 'in' 或 'on'，直接使用時間副詞即可。
×Nice to meet you. (在第二次見面時使用)
✓Nice to see you again.
'Nice to meet you' 僅用於初次見面。第二次或之後見面，應說 'Nice to see you (again)' 或 'Good to see you'。
