Hi Chantal,

This doesn't sound very natural
The syntax is awkward.
Is the line being addressed to Mrs. Semra?

What is the real meaning of the line in different words?

Yes it's quite weird in Turkish too.. it seems more like a conversation than a 'formal text' in an e-mail:

semra hanım pazar günü lütfen buluşalım toplantımız var

hanim is a formal way of saying 'mrs/miss', pazar gunu is sunday, lutfen is 'please', bulusalim - let's meet, toplantimiz var - we've got a meeting.

maybe: Let's meet on Sunday please, we've got a meeting. But the 'lutfen' should then be after 'bulusalim', which is why I translated it like this, as if it's more pleading?

Hum... let's set a poll and see what the community offers to help

I'll just edit Sunday and change the punctuation a bit, OK?

Before:
"Mrs. Semra let's please meet on sunday, we've got a meeting.

I agree with merdogan.
It should be: we will have a meeting.
