뜻
To establish a specific time limit for completion.
문화적 배경
In Spanish administrative culture, 'plazos' are often strictly defined by law (días hábiles vs. naturales). Failing to meet a 'plazo' with the government can lead to losing rights. In Mexican business, 'fijar un plazo' is common, but there is often a 'colchón' (cushion) expected. Deadlines are sometimes seen as goals rather than hard stops. Argentine business culture can be very direct. 'Fijar un plazo' is used to demand accountability in a volatile economy where timing is everything. Colombians often use very polite language around deadlines. Instead of just 'fijar un plazo', they might say '¿Le parece si fijamos un plazo?'.
Use with Adjectives
To sound more native, add adjectives like 'razonable' (reasonable) or 'improrrogable' (non-extendable) after 'plazo'.
Avoid 'Hacer'
Never say 'hacer un plazo'. It's the most common giveaway that you are translating from English.
