Have you ever wanted to talk about an appointment but were not sure hw to address it? In this lesson, we will learn if it is at or on a date.

"At" or "On Date" in the English grammar

Which One Should Be Used?

'On date' is grammatically correct and can be used to refer to a specific engagement on a particular day or time. 'At date' is not typically used in this context, and its use should be avoided.

On date

'On date' is commonly used to talk about planned appointments. Being 'on a date' means that you have a specific romantic or social engagement with someone on a particular day or time. Note that 'on' is usually followed by an article. Have a look:

I am going on a date.

He is currently on a date with the boss.

At date

The preposition 'at' is not typically used to refer to a date or appointment, and its use in this context should be avoided.

I am going at a date.

He is currently at a date with the boss.
