Making plans

Arranging to meet, and getting out of it politely.

Why these go together

These turn a language you can read into a language you have a social life in. Notice how many are about NOT doing something: most arrangements are really rearrangements.

  • On se voit à huit heures ?

    Shall we meet at eight?

    Literally: one sees oneself at eight hours

  • Je t'appelle plus tard.

    I will call you later.

  • Je ne peux pas aujourd'hui.

    I cannot today.

  • Qu'est-ce que tu fais demain ?

    What are you doing tomorrow?

  • Je suis en retard, désolé.

    I am running late, sorry.

  • À bientôt.

    See you soon.
