Meeting with former classmates
Contexto cultural
Họp lớp is most common during the 3rd day of Tết. It's a time to show gratitude to teachers and reconnect with childhood friends. Reunions in the North can be quite formal, often starting with a visit to the school or the teacher's house before going to a restaurant. Reunions in the South tend to be more casual, often centered around 'nhậu' (drinking and eating) at a local garden restaurant. Overseas Vietnamese often organize 'Họp lớp' globally, sometimes meeting in a third country or returning to Vietnam together.
The 'Mùng 3' Rule
If you want to sound like a local, mention that you go to 'họp lớp' on 'Mùng 3 Tết'. It's the most traditional day for it.
Don't say 'Họp bạn'
While it makes sense literally, no one says it. Stick to 'họp lớp' or 'gặp mặt bạn bè'.
