Learn Spanish (Latin America): Me gustaría agendar una cita para el lunes. - I would like to schedule an appointment for Monday.

Me gustaría means 'I would like', which is the conditional form of gustar. It is used to make polite requests or talk about things you want to do right now or in the future, whereas me gusta simply means 'I like' as a general, everyday fact.

Why is agendar in its infinitive form (ending in -ar) here?

After me gustaría, you always leave the next verb in its base dictionary form (the infinitive) when you are talking about what you yourself would like to do. Since you are saying 'I would like to schedule', agendar stays in its unchanged infinitive form.

Does una cita mean a romantic date or a business appointment?

It can mean both! In Spanish, una cita is a very common word used for doctors' appointments, business meetings, and romantic dates. The context (like scheduling something for Monday) usually makes it clear which one it is.

Why do we use para instead of por for 'for Monday'?

We use para when talking about deadlines, due dates, or specific target times in the future. Since Monday is the target day for this appointment, para el lunes is the correct choice.
