rendez-vous
date, appointment, meeting
Pronunciation
/ʁɑ̃.de.vu/
Cultural Note
The French concept of dating differs from American culture. There is no formal equivalent of 'dating' as a stage — French people tend to go from being friends to being in a couple ('en couple') without the intermediate 'dating around' phase. A 'rendez-vous galant' specifically implies a romantic date.
📝 Example Sentences

C'est notre premier rendez-vous amoureux.
This is our first romantic date.
