Join with us = Come and be like us. (almost religious in context) Click to expand... Perhaps some people say "join with us", but that makes no grammatical sense to me. Since "join us" means 'be together with us', "join with us" is like saying 'be together with with us'. ("be together" may mean together physically or in spirit.) Last edited: Sep 3, 2008
