## Resource

I have a dentist appointment tomorrow. Jack made a reservation for dinner. Oh, and we're having a meeting at 2:00. Sorry, I already have plans tonight. Appointment, Reservation, Meeting, and Plans. These words all talk about arrangements, usually in the future, right? So why can’t you say, “I have a reservation with my dentist”? Or, “I have plans with my boss at work”? And what about this sentence: “I have a promise with my friend.” Yeah… that doesn’t sound natural. So today, we’re going to clear all of this up and learn how to naturally use appointment, reservation, meeting, and plans in everyday English.
