Notifying about a scheduled meeting.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'quarto d'ora accademico' allows for a 15-minute delay in social settings, but for a professional 'appuntamento', being on time is a sign of respect. In cities like Milan, punctuality for an 'appuntamento di lavoro' is strictly enforced. Being late can be seen as a lack of professionalism. Social 'appuntamenti' are often more flexible. If you have an appointment for 'pomeriggio' (afternoon), it might mean anytime between 4 PM and 7 PM. An 'appuntamento' is rarely just about business; it often includes a coffee and small talk to build a personal connection first.
The Article is Key
Always say 'un appuntamento'. Saying 'ho appuntamento' is a very common beginner mistake.
Avoid 'Data'
Never use 'data' for a romantic meeting. It sounds like you are talking about a historical event.

الأسئلة الشائعة
10 أسئلةYes, it is the standard word for both business and personal meetings.
Use 'dal dottore' (at the doctor's place) or 'con il dottore' (with the doctor). Both are correct, but 'dal' is more common.
You say 'Sono in ritardo per l'appuntamento'.
No, it only means a romantic date if the context suggests it. Otherwise, it's just a meeting.
The plural is 'appuntamenti'. Example: 'Ho molti appuntamenti oggi'.
Yes, 'Ho un appuntamento dal parrucchiere' is perfect.
No, 'impegno' is more general. You can have an 'impegno' to clean your house, but an 'appuntamento' requires another person.
Say 'Vorrei prendere un appuntamento'.
It is neutral. You can use it with your best friend or your boss.
Use 'Ci vediamo' or 'Mi vedo con un amico'. 'Appuntamento' sounds a bit too formal for a casual coffee.
