Question
I’m attending my first business meeting in Japan next week and want to make a good impression. How do I ask “Could you please send me the meeting agenda?” in Japanese?

Kaigi no gidai o okutte itadakemasu ka?
Could you please send me the meeting agenda?
This phrase is formal and suitable for business settings. Kaigi means “meeting,” gidai means “agenda,” and Okutte itadakemasu ka is a polite way to request something to be sent to you.
In Japanese business culture, showing consideration and politeness is crucial, especially in written and spoken communications. Using “itadakemasu ka” adds a respectful tone to your request. You can replace “gidai” with other items if you need something else for the meeting.
