Joining Meaning in English
word · lemma: join
释义
The act of becoming part of a group, activity, or organization, or of connecting things together. As a word form, it is often the -ing form of 'join' used after verbs like 'be' or as a noun-like activity word.
用法与细微差别
Most often, 'joining' means becoming a member: 'joining the team', 'joining a class'. In technical contexts, it can mean connecting parts: 'joining two wires'. Learners often confuse it with 'meeting'—'joining' focuses on becoming part of something, not just being present.
