在英语中,朋友家人聚会可以称为"a family and friends gathering"或者"a family reunion".

"Gathering"是指人们聚集在一起的意思,这个词是从中世纪拉丁文"gather"(聚集)衍生而来的。

"Reunion"是指人们回到一起的意思,这个词是从拉丁文"re-"(再次)和"unio"(结合)衍生而来的。

下面是一些例句:

We're having a family and friends gathering at my house this weekend.
My parents are planning a family reunion for next summer.
It's been too long since we had a family gathering.
I'm really looking forward to the family reunion.
