日本語
A Japanese Phrase for Asking what time a meeting starts: "会議は何時からですか?"
"会議は何時からですか?" means "What time does the meeting start?" and it's the basic Japanese expression used for asking what time a meeting starts. It's very handy at work and in the office. To answer, you can say something like "午後2時からです。" (It starts at two in the afternoon). You can keep the conversation going by reacting with something like "わかりました、資料を準備しておきます。" (Okay, I'll get the materials ready).
