Common Mistakes

  • Yo llamo para confirmar nuestra reunión.

    The pronoun ‘te’ is missing; without it the sentence sounds like you are calling yourself.

  • Te llamo confirmar nuestra reunión.

    The preposition ‘para’ is required before an infinitive to express purpose.

  • Te llamo para confirmar nuestro reunión.

    ‘Reunión’ is feminine, so the possessive must be ‘nuestra’, not ‘nuestro’.

Alternatives

  • Te contacto para confirmar nuestra reunión.

    I’ll contact you to confirm our meeting.

  • Llamo para confirmar nuestra reunión.

    I’m calling to confirm our meeting.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking business cultures, a quick phone call to confirm a meeting is considered courteous and shows professionalism. Using ‘te’ signals a familiar relationship; in a formal context you would switch to the formal indirect object pronoun ‘le’ and say ‘Le llamo para confirmar nuestra reunión.’ Also, ‘reunión’ is the standard term for a work‑related gathering, while ‘cita’ is more informal and often used for personal appointments.
