Opposite pages

I think a better way would be:

It seems we can't go out, as our schedules overlap.

The phrase "on different pages" doesn't exist in English, the way above is the way it would be said.

Hi.

Thanks for your reply.

But I am sure I have heard similar sentence has been used by a native speaker. I might have dropped a word but the whole structure is the same.

Regards

Trust me, while it may have been used by one particular speaker, it is not in common usage. Obviously, English speakers will understand it, but it comes across as very ethnic - like there are certain phrases commonly used in certain dialects of English, but not used throughout.

Thanks Akshay for your response.

But as for your suggestion, the use of overlap indicates that the two schedules have similar parts.

It shows that the two parties might be free in a specif day.

Thanks for your help and time

There's a common expression "on different pages," which means that you have different opinions or you're at different points in your life.

My relationship with Mark didn't work out. We're on such different pages on so many things. We could hardly agree on anything important.

You could say that you have conflicting schedules.

Hi Hamid,

Adding to what Grammar Geek just said, there exists another expression which is exactly against the mentioned one:

"on the same page" : if a group of people are on the same page, they are working well together and have the same aims
