The New Year holiday is one of those special times when family can gather together. It is wonderful to meet your relatives whom you may not have seen in a long time. There are stories to tell and smiles to be had when spending time with relatives. If you want to express this idea of your whole family coming together to celebrate something we say:
'family reunion' or, 'family get-together'
"For New Years's my parents held a family get-together so we could all welcome in the New Year."
"Each year at New Year's Eve, we have a family reunion at my house."
Alternatively, you can express your family gathering together to celebrate the New Year by saying:
"All my family gathers round to celebrate the New Year together."
to gather round= this means to 'come together'.
If you want to express this idea of your whole family coming together to celebrate something we say:お正月は家族が一緒に集まる特別な時のひとつです。長い間会っていない親戚に会うの素晴らしいことです。親戚と一緒に過ごす時間には伝えたい話や笑顔があるでしょう。このような何かをお祝いするための親族の集まりは、 'family reunion'や'family get-together'と表現できます。
【例文】
"For New Years's my parents held a family get-together so we could all welcome in the New Year."(お正月には私の両親が親族を集めて、みんなで新年を祝います)
"Each year at New Year's Eve, we have a family reunion at my house."
(毎年大晦日には私の家で親族が集まります)
代わりに、お正月を親族で一緒にお祝いすることを以下のように表現することもできます。
【例文】
"All my family gathers round to celebrate the New Year together."
(私の親戚全員が集まってお正月を一緒にお祝します)
to gather round= これは'come together'という意味です。
