Avoir verb Rencontrer
The verb Rencontrer is an Avoir verb. So is it correct to use it with être in passé composé ?
Nous nous sommes rencontrés en janvier 2008.
Merci

Yes it is correct. You must use être in this case because the object of the verb is the same as its subject.
Then the usage is referred to as a "reflexive verb".
Other examples might be ""nous nous sommes demandé" , "ils se sont battus" and"ne vous inquiétez -pas" .
