✕Common Mistakes
¿La reunión está en pie hoy?
Using 'está' with 'en pie' is not idiomatic; the correct verb is 'seguir' or 'estar' without the idiom.
¿La reunión todavía sigue en pie hoy?
Do not add an extra 'todavía' before the idiom; it becomes redundant.
¿Hoy la reunión sigue en pie?
Placing 'hoy' before the verb can sound unnatural; keep it at the end of the question.

Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking workplaces, confirming a meeting with a short question like this is considered courteous, especially if there have been recent changes or if the meeting is informal. Avoid overly formal phrasing (e.g., '¿Se mantiene la convocatoria?') unless you are speaking with senior executives. Also, note that 'en pie' is an idiom; using the literal verb 'estar' (e.g., *¿La reunión está en pie?*) sounds odd to native ears.
