用法How to use 约会
约会 usually means a romantic date, or to go out on a date with someone; it can also refer to an arranged meeting or appointment. It is used as both a noun (一个约会, 今晚有约会) and a verb, but the person you date or meet is introduced with 跟/和, never as a direct object. Typical patterns are (跟/和 + someone) + 约会, or 有一个约会.
