Traps and common mistakes

Свидание or дата?

дата

дата ≠ a romantic date: only a calendar date

Don't say «У меня дата». A romantic meeting — свидание; a day on the calendar — дата.

Мы идём на свидание в субботу.

We're going on a date on Saturday.

Дату свадьбы уже назначили.

The wedding date is already set — a calendar date, not a romantic date.
