How does recontrer mean meet for the first time if the prefix RE means to do something again 😭 French is crazy

This confuses me every time, because the "re" always makes me think this should be a repeated action 😅

And what about "retrouver"? Is it alright to say it or should I say "voir"?

eyesofwacka :
so this isn't all that correct. rencontrer means to find yourself in the presence of/before someone on purpose per the dictionary. a synonym is croiser for example, to cross paths.
the reason it's often used for "to meet someone for the first time" is because basically rencontrer is about making yourself known to someone else, which is a definition that could be interpreted for meeting someone for the first time

j'ai retrouvé mes amis - I'm sure this is what we were told was "I met my friends"

Thank you for sharing this content. It’s amazing specially with the way you break it down with your beautiful accent in English and French. It’s just wish there was a place we could get more of it.🙏

When I speak French I notice that I switch between voir and “se reunir”. No rhyme or reason, I’ve just been doing it forever haha
