معنی
Organizing a formal gathering for discussion.
زمینه فرهنگی
Public meetings (Pothu-kūṭṭam) are a staple of Tamil life. You will often see large stages erected on street corners with loud speakers for political or social meetings. In Chennai's IT corridor, 'கூட்டம் நடத்து' is used in formal emails, but 'மீட்டிங்' (Meeting) is the spoken norm. However, using the Tamil phrase shows high linguistic competence. The 'Gram Sabha' (Village Council) is a mandatory meeting held on specific days like Republic Day. It is the most authentic form of 'கூட்டம் நடத்து' in a democratic sense. The register might be even more formal, often using 'கூடல்' (gathering) or 'அமர்வு' (session) in parliamentary or high-level academic contexts.
Use the Passive in Reports
When writing minutes of a meeting, always use 'கூட்டம் நடத்தப்பட்டது' (The meeting was conducted) to sound professional.
Don't use with 'Friends'
If you say this to a friend, they might think you are going to lecture them or that it's a very serious intervention.

The 'Tea' Factor
In Tamil culture, a 'kūṭṭam' isn't complete without tea and snacks. Mentioning 'தேநீர் இடைவேளை' (tea break) makes your meeting description very realistic.
