Usage Note
Reencontrar is typically used reflexively as reencontrarse con someone: se reencontró con sus amigos de la infancia (he was reunited with his childhood friends). The noun form reencuentro ('reunion') is very common. The initial re- prefix means the finding is a repetition of a previous encounter, distinguishing it from encontrar alone.
Examples
"Por fin se reencontró con su hermano."
Natural Translation
She was finally reunited with her brother.
