An arrangement to meet someone at an agreed time and place, or a promise to do something on a set date.
Good to know
Same form in the plural, with n class agreement: miadi yetu, miadi hiyo. Kuweka miadi is to make an appointment; kuvunja miadi is to break it. A rather formal word.
Examples
- Nina miadi na daktari saa tatu asubuhi.I have an appointment with the doctor at nine in the morning.
- Aliweka miadi ya kukutana nami kesho.She made an appointment to meet me tomorrow.
- Usivunje miadi yako na mteja.Do not break your appointment with the customer.
