What does this sentence mean? In what situation do you use this phrase?
"More or less is fine."

I know I can use this in a situation like, "To make cookie dough, put 100 grams of sugar into the melted butter. But more or less is fine."

My question is if I can also say this phrase, for example, when I ask someone the date and time she/he would available to have a meeting?

Answer

This is not something you would say about time. Plus or minus (or give or take) XXX minutes is more or less fine. ;)

Answer

No, I don't think it would work. You should probably say something using earlier or later.
