- 1三代同遊、揪團旅行(一大家子或一群朋友一起出遊的度假方式);英文裡是旅遊業的新造詞,日常對話少用。
Togethering means going on holiday as one big group — not just you and your partner, but , aunts, cousins, or a whole circle of friends, all travelling and staying together. It is a fairly new word, made by treating together as if it were a verb, and it belongs to travel writing, hotel advertising, and newspaper lifestyle pages rather than to normal speech.
Togethering意思是 means going on holiday大家一起去度假 as one big group當成一個大團體, — not just you and your partner不只是你和伴侶, but grandparents, aunts, cousins而是祖父母、阿姨、表親, or a whole circle of friends或一整圈朋友, all travelling and staying together全部一起旅行、一起住. It is這 a fairly new word是個相當新的字, made by treating together是把together當成 as if it were a verb動詞來用而造出來的, and it belongs to而且屬於 travel writing, hotel advertising旅遊寫作、飯店廣告, and newspaper lifestyle pages和報紙的生活風格版面 rather than to normal speech而不是日常口語.
Most English speakers have never used it, and some have never met it, so if you say it in conversation you may need to explain. When it does appear it usually sounds slightly commercial — a resort selling large rooms, an airline selling group bookings.
Most English speakers大多數英語使用者 have never used it從來沒用過它, and some有些人 have never met it甚至沒遇過它, so if you say it所以如果你在對話裡 in conversation說出它 you may need to explain你可能需要解釋一下. When it does appear當它真的出現時 it usually sounds slightly commercial通常聽起來有點商業味 — a resort一間度假村 selling large rooms在賣大房間, an airline一間航空公司 selling group bookings在賣團體訂位.
If you simply want to say the ordinary thing, English speakers say a family holiday, a group trip, or a family reunion. Keep togethering for when you are reading about the travel industry, or when you want the specific idea of the multi-generation holiday as a trend.

core核心畫面
組成together + -ing. The -ing ending normally turns a verb into the name of an activity — swimming, shopping — so this word treats together as though you could "together" as an action. That playfulness is why it still feels invented rather than settled.
