The verb "postpone" refers to the action of delaying or deferring an event, task, or decision to a later time. It involves rescheduling something that was previously arranged, often due to unforeseen circumstances or the need for more time to prepare. The term is commonly used in various contexts, from informal personal plans to formal business meetings and public events. Postponing is a strategic decision that can help manage time and resources more effectively, although it may also involve considerations about the impact of the delay on others involved.
