Appointment – cita

(Pronounced see-tah)

To remember that appointment is pronounced see-tah (cita) in Latin American Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

I had an appointment with the doctor to see how this fake tan (cita) could be removed.

Cita is feminine, so it's la cita. Imagine a lady being late for an appointment.
