How do you add a point to an acceptable answers? One on one, and person to person meeting: 1. One person listens to other person to know his ideas, suggestions, feedback. A person tries to understand the other person’s expectations, problems and suggestions. One person then moves on to the other person’s personal story for the next one. One of purposes of this one-on-one meeting would be, each person would like to improve the quality of delivery/contribution to the organization/purpose/business.

Facial to face can be meaning there are more than two participants. One-on-one is used in business meetings for years; and yes–there is often a “dominance” factor. One is a “leader” or “manager” and one is subordinate. It’s not necessarily pretty but that’s business.

Both may be correct, so the tie-breaker is local usage and avoidance of confusion. One-to-one is used in math while one a good third often in sports. Similarly, both are used in the same setting. So a meeting might be either. If you talk about a one-to-one meeting, the listener may think you are referring to the hour.

According to the similar phrases and usages used in the database/databases, “man-to-man” and “heart-to-heart” refer to an interaction. What make a similar phrase better?

Meanwhile, “One-on-One” has a sort of domination/subordination sound to it, where one is on top of the other.

At the end of the day, when two people are having a private conversation or face off or meeting, it’s a one-on-one.

One-to-one is more personal, and implies inter-personal communication between two people.

One-on-one is a combat between two people. It is a common practice among such people, and can carry a different

aura than the karate fight.

The term one-to-one is used when talking about a transfer or communication. I want one to one. You may use one-to-one when you can identify source and destination. For example. Sword and words for eg. , one-to-one emails is one sent from a single person to another, i.e. a Facebook id email and a personal email are one sent to the customer. He says, no ccs. no bccs. In maths, a one-to-one mapping maps one element of a set to a unique element in a target set.

One-on-one is the correct adjective in your example. Do you have any experience with Free dictionary? One to one has traditionally been used to facilitate mutual exchange between two people. In this case, it seems that one person is the one behind the whole process because there is no one to share the story.
