Common Mistakes

  • Ist mein Termin morgen noch?

    While grammatically correct, *ist* sounds less idiomatic for appointments; native speakers prefer *steht* in this context.

  • Steht mein Termin morgen?

    Missing *noch* removes the nuance of “still” and turns the question into a simple inquiry whether an appointment exists.

  • Steht morgen mein Termin noch?

    If you place *morgen* before *mein Termin* (e.g., *Steht morgen mein Termin noch?*), the sentence sounds awkward; the usual order is subject‑verb‑object‑time‑adverb.

Alternatives

Cultural Tip

In German business and medical contexts it is common to confirm appointments a day in advance. Using *noch* signals that you are aware the schedule could have changed. Keep the tone courteous – a simple *Danke* after the answer is appreciated. In southern Germany you might also hear *Geht mein Termin morgen noch?* which uses *gehen* in a similar sense.
