How it's used
Reserved for formal or professional contexts, this term is rarely used in casual daily conversation. It functions primarily as a verb in written reports or formal announcements rather than in spoken interaction. When speaking, most people prefer using 參加會議 or 開會 to convey the same meaning.
Examples
Many industry representatives have attended the meeting.

Common mistake
Learners often mistakenly use this in casual settings where it sounds overly stiff or pretentious. Stick to 開會 for everyday situations to avoid sounding like a formal document.
