Question

Plan my day around or accordingly?
Texting a friend
Is this message correct and natural?
Hi.
Are we meeting at 4 tomorrow as we said? I need to plan my day around

Thanks

Answer

For that particular text it would naturally be "accordingly"

"If we agree to meet at 4pm, I can plan my day around that (time)" time is optional
"if we can meet at 4pm I can plan my day accordingly"

around and accordingly are both equally used, but accordingly sounds natural for your particular sentence.

Answer

Hi, you can say one of two different things.
1. I need to plan my day around our meeting.
2. I need to plan my day accordingly.

I would also say 'are we meeting tomorrow at 4 pm as discussed?'

Good luck,

Janie
