意味
Arriving exactly when planned.
文化的背景
Punctuality is a sign of respect. Being 5 minutes late is considered rude. If you are late, always send a text message as soon as you know. Similar to Denmark, Germans value 'Pünktlichkeit'. However, Germans might be even more formal about it in business settings. In countries like Italy or Greece, 'til tiden' can be more flexible. A meeting at 10:00 might actually start at 10:15. Japan has the world's strictest standards for 'at komme til tiden', especially for trains, which apologize for being 30 seconds late.
The 5-Minute Rule
In Denmark, if you are more than 5 minutes late, you are officially 'forsinket' (delayed) and should notify the person you are meeting.
Aim for 5 minutes early
To ensure you 'kommer til tiden', aim to arrive 5 minutes early. This gives you a buffer for finding the right door or parking.

Use it for things, too
Remember you can use this for the mail, your pizza delivery, or a flight—not just people!
