Bedeutung
To form new friendships with people.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Spain, making friends often involves 'el tapeo' (going for tapas). It is common to make friends with coworkers by going out for a beer immediately after work. The term 'amigo' is used very broadly in Mexico, sometimes even for strangers (like 'buddy' or 'mate'). However, 'hacer amigos' still implies a real connection. Argentina celebrates 'Día del Amigo' (Friend's Day) on July 20th. It is a massive event where everyone goes out to celebrate the friends they have 'made' over the years.
Use the plural
Even if you only met one person, saying 'hice amigos' sounds more natural and less desperate than 'hice un amigo'.
Silent H
Never pronounce the 'H' in hacer. It's not 'Hacer', it's 'A-cer'.
