<p>最近我对《打算》和《计划》有问题。如果我同事问我《这周末你有什么计划吗？》的话这有《你有什么打算吗？》的意思吗？如果不一样这两个句子有什么不同？</p>

<p>I am a little bit confused on when to use 计划 and when to use 打算. My understanding is that both mean "plan" but they seem to be entirely interchangeable. In what situations would I want to use one over the other?</p>

Kind of ```plan``` and ```planning```. ```计划``` is probably a bit formal. Also check [this similar Q](https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/28516/what-is-the-difference-between-%E6%89%93%E7%AE%97-d%C7%8E-su%C3%A0n-and-%E8%AE%A1%E5%88%92-j%C3%AC-hu%C3%A0)

最近我对《打算》和《计划》有问题。如果我同事问我《这周末你有什么计划吗？》的话这有《你有什么打算吗？》的意思吗？如果不一样这两个句子有什么不同？

I am a little bit confused on when to use 计划 and when to use 打算. My understanding is that both mean "plan" but they seem to be entirely interchangeable. In what situations would I want to use one over the other?

If you want to say or mean "a definite plan" has been formulated or decided upon then 计划 is more suitable.

If you want to mean "some kind of decision" has been made, then 打算 is better.

Thus:-

你有什么计划吗？ -- Have you made any plans?

你有什么打算吗？ -- Have you made a decision?
