Postpone

 The word postpone means to delay or reschedule something to a later time or date. When you postpone something, you decide to put it off or move it to a different time, usually because the original plan or schedule is no longer feasible or convenient. Postponing can happen in various situations, both personal and professional. For example, if you have a meeting scheduled but something unexpected comes up, you might need to postpone the meeting to a later time. Similarly, if you have plans to go on a trip but there’s a sudden change in circumstances, you might have to postpone the trip to another date.

Postponing can also occur in everyday situations. For instance, if you have a dinner reservation but you’re running late, you might need to call the restaurant and ask to postpone the reservation to a later time. Or if you have a deadline for a project but you encounter unexpected challenges, you might need to request an extension and postpone the deadline.
