@ASKER Este vorba despre un program al acestei intalniri? Mai mult context ar fi util.
Lara Barnett Aug 5, 2013:
Grammatical construction I think you need to consider what verb form you are going to use for this phrase:
You would be able to use the gerund as a noun in this case. I would suggest a gerund which can be used as a noun as beginning with an imperative, adjective, or other verb form may risk distorting the sense of the Romanian source phrase.

"The gerund always has the same function as a noun (although it looks like a verb), ..."

Conducting a meeting

I would use this construction to suit the more official register of the text.

You could use the construction
"THE CONDUCTING of a meeting in order to establish ... etc"
i.e. You would be able to use the gerund as a noun in this case.

"The gerund always has the same function as a noun (although it looks like a verb), ..."

Example sentence:

"1: Firstly to edit & complete the script for the film. Conducting a meeting to establish who wants to get involved and what dates people are free to produce the film."
