Apostrophe usage in this sentence

let's meet/lets meet?

We don't need to substitute for 'is' here, then what is that apostrophe for?

2. When to use square and when to use round brackets?

Could someone please help me with this? thanx.

In let's meet , the apostrophe replaces the u in us . Therefore, when we say: let's meet, what we are really saying is let us meet . When writing, we use round brackets, square brackets are used in Mathematics and Computer language.
