I'd like to know whether "do meeting/a meeting" "do discussion/a discussion" "do consultation/ a consultation" are natural or not. And if they are natural, what these phrase mean?
I think these words(meeting, discussion,consulatation) are usually used with "have".
For example,
I have a meeting with my supervisor avout my research topic.
They had a discussion about the problem.
We had consultations with her lawyer.
However, I found some sentences using DO.
Do you think these sentences are natural?And do you have any idea of differences between the sentences using "have" and "do"?
(a)Bali is the best place to do a meeting. During your working schedule, you still can be relax and enjoy bali.
(b)The volunteers do a meeting to discuss the results of data collection.
(c)After about a year of not seeing each other in group, we decided to do a meeting again this easter holiday. '
(d)In this video we do a discussion about control statements.
(e)As always, we will begin with the Magnet Book Club at 1pm, where we read from a book and do a discussion about its information, and then we'll go on the the main topic at 2pm.
(f)I also do consultation to gain insight of what you desire and to ensure professional quality.
(g)A doctor with whom you do consultation can decide whether you can take Reductil or not for obesity treatment. You can also find out whether you are eligible by having an online consultation with any licensed online clinic.
(h)You would want to do a consultation to know if the laser will work for your needs.
If you have any idea, please tell me.
