✕Common Mistakes

  • Il mio appuntamento è ancora domani?

    Using 'ancora' with a future meaning can be confusing; it should refer to a situation that is still true now.

  • Il mio appuntamento sarà per domani?

    Do not use future tense 'sarà' unless you are asking about a future‑only possibility.

  • Il mio appuntamento è ancora domani?

    Avoid omitting the preposition; 'domani' alone can work but changes nuance.
