How it's used
Focuses on the active role taken to ensure a specific outcome or agreement happens. It is frequently used in formal or business contexts, such as negotiations or partnerships, rather than casual daily interactions. Unlike general verbs for helping, it implies a successful push toward a final result.
Examples
They worked very hard to bring about this deal.
Is there any way to facilitate a reconciliation between the two of them?
Related words
Common phrases
to facilitate cooperation
to bring about a transaction
Common mistake
Learners often confuse this with 促進, which means to promote or accelerate a process or development. While 促進 is about improving the speed or quality of something already in motion, 促成 is specifically about making a deal or event actually occur.
