Learners sometimes use "repeal" for everyday cancellations (e.g., "repeal a class" or "repeal a meeting"). "Repeal" is mainly used for official laws, rules, and policies. For normal plans, use verbs like "cancel" or "call off." Learners also confuse "repeal" with "appeal": "appeal" means to ask a higher court or authority to change a decision, not to cancel a law.
