Usage Notes
"对接" implies an active, often technical or formal connection rather than casual contact. It differs from "联系" (liánxì), which means to contact or get in touch, by emphasizing the functional or operational linking aspect. Avoid using "对接" in informal social contexts where simple communication is meant.
