🔹 Meeting vs. Appointment

• Meeting = poslovni sastanak, obično više osoba, radi dogovora, odlučivanja ili razmene informacija.
  ✅ We had a meeting with the sales team yesterday.

• Appointment = unapred zakazani termin, uglavnom jedan-na-jedan, često privatne ili formalne prirode.
  ✅ I have a dentist’s appointment at 3 pm.

⚠️ Česta greška:
❌ I had an appointment with the sales team.
✅ I had a meeting with the sales team.

👉 Zapamti:

• Appointment = privatno ili individualno

• Meeting = poslovno i obično grupno

Česte nedoumice

• Book vs. Reserve
  Book a meeting room = zakazati, formalnije.
  Reserve a table = rezervisati, češće za restoran ili hotel.
  👉 U poslu se češće koristi book a room / book a slot.

• Arrange vs. Organize
  Arrange a meeting = dogovoriti termin.
  Organize a meeting = pobrinuti se za logistiku (sala, agenda, učesnici).

• Cancel vs. Postpone
  Cancel = otkazati zauvek.
  Postpone = pomeriti za kasnije.
  👉 Česta greška: We cancelled the meeting to next week ❌
  ✅ We postponed the meeting to next week.
