A quick definition of convene:

Term: CONVENE

Definition: Convene means to call people together or gather them in one place. It can also mean to bring a legal case against someone or to ask them to respond to a legal action. For example, if you want to have a meeting with your friends, you can convene them by sending them an invitation. If you want to take someone to court, you can convene them by serving them with legal papers.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To call together or cause to assemble. It can also mean to summon someone to respond to an action.

Examples:

  • The principal convened a meeting with all the teachers to discuss the new curriculum.
  • The board of directors will convene next week to discuss the company's financial performance.
  • The judge convened a hearing to listen to both sides of the case.

The first two examples illustrate the first definition of convene, which means to call together or cause to assemble. In the first example, the principal called all the teachers to a meeting to discuss the new curriculum. In the second example, the board of directors will come together to discuss the company's financial performance.

The third example illustrates the second definition of convene, which means to summon someone to respond to an action. In this case, the judge summoned both sides of the case to a hearing to listen to their arguments.
