How it's used
Formal in nature, this term is primarily reserved for business meetings, conferences, or official seminars. It carries a professional weight that makes it sound out of place in casual social gatherings or informal group hangouts. In everyday speech, people often prefer simpler alternatives like 參加者 or 出席者 to sound less stiff.

Common mistake
Avoid using this in casual contexts, as it sounds overly bureaucratic and detached. It is strictly a noun for people attending a formal event, not for participants in a game or a hobby group.
