Agreeing on a workable plan
Dann treffen wir uns vor dem Eingang.
Combine preferences, times and costs, then confirm who does what and where to meet.
A shared plan must work for all participants. First compare availability and preferences. Then choose a meeting place and time, divide tasks and confirm the final version. Ab 15 Uhr means from 15:00 onward; spätestens um 15 Uhr means no later than 15:00. Pro Person is per person, not the group total. In short dialogues, suggestions can change, so use the last explicit agreement. Useful planning questions include Wer besorgt die Karten? and Wo treffen wir uns? A condition such as wenn es regnet gives a backup plan. Before finishing, repeat the essentials rather than assuming everyone understood.
