Common mistakes
After ten years apart, the two friends reunited together.After ten years apart, the two friends reunited.
“reunite”本身已含“再次相聚、重新联合”的意思，再加“together”会造成语义重复。去掉“together”后句子依然完整，且更自然。
I reunited my old classmates at the party.I reunited with my old classmates at the party.
当表示“与某人重聚”时，reunite 是不及物动词，需用 “reunite with”。原句 “reunited my old classmates” 会被理解为“使同学们重新联合”，而不是“我和同学们重聚”，因此要加介词 with。
She reunited to her mother after the concert.She reunited with her mother after the concert.
“reunite with somebody” 是固定搭配，表示“与某人重聚”；介词 to 不能表示这种对象关系。将 to 改为 with 才能表达正确含义。

Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：meeting family or friends again、attending a class or group reunion、reuniting a divided country or organization reunite 通常属于中性用词，在亲友重逢、团体重聚等日常场景中很常见；正式语境中也可使用，如谈到国家统一或组织合并。没有明显的口语化或俚语色彩。
Pronunciation & Spelling
unite、ignite、night 与 reunite 的韵尾相同，都读 /naɪt/；invite、site 分别读 /vaɪt/、/saɪt/，韵母 /aɪt/ 相同，也押韵。注意 finite 拼写中含 -nite，但重音在第一个音节，读 /ˈfaɪnaɪt/，与 reunite 不押韵。
