"Mam spotkanie o piątej."

Translation: I have a meeting at five.

[laurahya]

I had already learned 'wizyta' for 'appointment'. Can anyone clarify the difference between 'wizyta' and 'spotkanie'?

[CJ101-TG]

Spotkanie is like 'meating' in English.

[laurahya]

Thanks. So for example you would have a 'spotkanie' at work, and a 'wizyta' with the doctor?

[Jellei]

Yes, I would say so. Changed the main translation to "meeting", although "appointment" will still be accepted, and so will be "wizyta".

I am surprised to see "o" used to mean "at". I thought "o" meant "about " and in English in time at and about are very different At five is a precise time about five is approximate. Are Polish times more flexibeor is tis a special meaning of "o"?

[alik1989]

No, it's not more flexible. The preposition o has at least six different meanings.

And "o piątej" definitely doesn't mean "about/around 5" but exactly "at 5".

[domnelson]

Would "about/around 5" be "około piątej"?

[alik1989]

Yes, exactly.

[Jellei]

Or "koło piątej".
