schedule
When things happen
As a noun, schedule is a list of events aligned with anticipated times that serves as a reference.
A schedule that lists the times at regular intervals, such as a bus schedule, is the same thing as a timetable.
A schedule for things that will happen only once, such a conference schedule, can also be called a program.
As a verb, schedule usually means find a time slot for: Have you scheduled a doctor’s appointment yet?
