Mit Phantasie kommt weit bei LEO.

I'd say "has been brought forward". :)

to prepone sth. [do something earlier than planned]: etw. vorziehen [früher erledigen als geplant]

Danke!
prepone und postpone! So einfach kann es also sein.

Schönes Wochenende!

#4: So einfach kann es also sein.

... except that "prepone" is not normal UK English.

Dictionary: prepone

to put forward (to an earlier date); to set an earlier date for ...

I think there was a thread in which "prepone" was said to be Indian English?

useful word though...

Stimme #5 zu. prepone ist wohl aus dem Sprachgebrauch in Indien in den siebziger Jahren wieder zum Leben erweckt worden, klingt aber ,wie Diskussionen im Netz zeigen, in den Ohren vieler Muttersprachler immer noch seltsam.

#5 Ist es eben doch, zumindest zunehmend, siehe auch diese alte Diskussion: related discussion: Why English isn't easy - #23

#7: I think there was a thread in which "prepone" was said to be Indian English?

"Ind." in the LEO entry means "Indian (English)", AFAIK.

#6: to put forward

Doesn't sound idiomatic to me.

Man, you're just not with it! ;-)

@ Kinkyafro

my suggestions are from my Dietl/Lorenz Dictionary (Legal/Commercial/Polical Terms)

@#12: Dietl/Lorenz might be wrong.

#11: Man, you're just not with it! ;-)

"prepone" is of Indian origin, but became British already in 2010:

"Prepone" is now in the Concise Oxford English Dictionary ...
Whenever a new edition of an English dictionary is released, people start commenting on the number of new Hindi words that have got into the lexicon. The 11th edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary added 80 words from Hindi. “Prepone” has been accepted .."

Könnte man in diesem Zusammenhang auch "to move up" sagen?

The appointment has been moved up to Tuesday?

A Brit would rarely, if ever use Prepone. He would be thought very pretentious and a bit of a fool.

your could use: changed to, brought forward to, moved up to, rearranged to, rescheduled to. Never ever Prepone despite what the OED says unless off course you want the person you are speaking to or trying to arrange the meeting with to cancel the meeting for ever.

"prepone" is Hindi? - sounds more like Latin to me :-)

Re #17: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinglish

Re #4:
prepone bei (Süd-)Briten besser nicht benutzen!!!!

Bei Verschiebung über Tage (nicht Stunden) besser reschedule

Prepone isn't AE, either.

Reschedule seems highly idiomatic. "The meeting was rescheduled from Wednesday to Tuesday." (Just because the German uses the verb to indicated in which direction the change went doesn't mean that it has to be forced in English. The direction is indicated by the days -- although it would be clearer if dates were given, as it could also be construed to mean the following Tuesday.)

"moved up to Tuesday from Wednesday" also works.

Slightly OT: #13 zu #12 scheint mir ein Kommentar zu sein, den man zugunsten der Verständlichkeit für deutsche Muttersprachler eventuell lieber ein bisschen weniger rücksichtsvoll formulieren sollte - im preent tense nämlich. :-)

OT re #20: ein Kommentar ... den man ... eventuell lieber ein bisschen weniger rücksichtsvoll formulieren sollte...

I can't help myself, hilfesuch, as the following thread du jour indicates: related discussion: It is a bit of an outrage

;-)

"moved up to Tuesday from Wednesday" also works. 
maybe I'm no longer familiar with BE (business), but I wouldn't be sure whether that could mean to take place eight days later; "bring forward" is what I'd say.

re#14: What the author of that blog (aimed at students in Bangalore, I see) neglects to mention is that "prepone" is marked "Indian" in the Concise Oxford Dictionary.

The date (of the meeting?) has been advanced from Wednesday to Tuesday.
("prepone" is likely to bring tears to my eyes)

#22, no that would be "moved back to the following Tuesday". Das "up" sgat ganz klar, dass es früher als urssprünglich geplant ist.

"bring forward" is the obvious choice, IMO - in BE, at any rate. Is "move up" possibly more AE? I prefer "move forward" if anything.

I agree with Kinky about "bring forward" being the obvious choice, at least in BE. Errm, has anyone mentioned the Leo entry?
"to bring forward - vorziehen zeitlich"
Dictionary: bring forward
