Metting

Metting is not a standard term in English and is most commonly encountered as a misspelling of meeting. A meeting is a gathering of two or more people brought together for a specific purpose, such as discussing work, making decisions, or sharing information. Meetings can be formal or informal, scheduled regularly or arranged as needed, and they may occur in person or through virtual platforms. Typical features include an agenda, assigned roles (such as chair or facilitator), attendees, and minutes that record decisions and action items. Effective meetings aim to have a clear objective, start and end on time, and produce tangible outcomes, such as decisions, plans, or assigned responsibilities. Common types include team stand-ups, project meetings, board meetings, and committee gatherings.

Apart from being a likely misspelling, metting also corresponds to a related but distinct word: meting. Meting is the gerund form of the verb mete, meaning to distribute or allot something, often used in the phrase “the meting out of punishment.” In legal or literary contexts, meting out refers to the administration or measurement of a penalty or punishment, rather than a gathering of people.

In addition, metting can appear as a surname or a place name in some cases, though such uses are rare and not tied to a single, widely recognized concept. For most discussions, the intended meaning is either meeting (the gathering) or meting (the act of distributing).
