意味
Missing a scheduled meeting.
文化的背景
The 'Agenda' is a cultural icon. Most Dutch people carry one (digital or paper) and forgetting an appointment is seen as a failure of 'afspraak is afspraak' (an agreement is an agreement). While also punctual, Flemish culture can be slightly more flexible than Northern Dutch culture, but 'een afspraak vergeten' is still considered quite rude in professional settings. In Surinamese-Dutch culture, time can sometimes be more fluid ('Surinaamse tijd'), but in official Dutch-language contexts, the phrase 'een afspraak vergeten' remains the standard for missing a scheduled event. Efficiency is key. Forgetting an appointment is often linked to a lack of 'betrouwbaarheid' (reliability).
Use 'Helemaal'
Always add 'helemaal' (completely) when apologizing. It makes you sound more sincere and less like you just didn't care.
The 'Zijn' Rule
Remember: 'Ik BEN vergeten'. Using 'heb' is the number one mistake for English speakers.

よくある質問
3 問It is technically heard in some regions, but for an A2 learner, 'Ik ben de afspraak vergeten' is the only correct version you should use.
No, it is used for everything: doctors, friends, dates, and business meetings.
'Vergeten' is the general word. 'Ontschoten' is more idiomatic and sounds like it 'slipped' away from you—it's a bit more polite.
