Koosolek

Koosolek is an Estonian noun that denotes a gathering of people for discussion, decision-making, or social interaction. It is commonly translated into English as “meeting,” “assembly,” or “conference.”

In contemporary usage, koosolek refers to organized gatherings, including corporate meetings, school or university committee sessions, nonprofit association meetings, and governmental or municipal assemblies. The term implies some level of planning and a agenda-driven or semi-formal character, though it can also describe informal meetups with a focus on conversation and coordination.

The word is of Estonian origin and is composed to convey the sense of people coming together. In English-language contexts, koosolek is typically rendered simply as “meeting,” with context providing the appropriate nuance of formality or purpose.
