15 espressioni idiomatiche con la parola "denti"

不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样？不可以加动词，可以加是，还可以加形容词（adjective）,但是，没只有加动词和形容词两个，不可以加是，不能说没是。
我们今天只看不加动词和没加动词。不加动词是说现在和将来now and future，没加动词是说以前、过去，是past.
我们看两个句子：
1. 今年我没去旅游。
2.今年我不去旅游。
现在是十二月，今年已经过去了，我可能说“今年我没去旅游。”
现在是一月，今年才刚刚开始，我可能说“我没有钱，今年我不去旅游。”
再看两个句子：
3.我太太今天没来学校。
4.我太太今天不来学校。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太在办公室吗？我要给她一个东西。这时候你说“我太太今天没来学校。”她没来，所以她不在学校，也不在办公室。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太几点来学校？你说“我太太今天不来学校。”你太太今天没有课，她不来，她现在不来，十二点不来，下午也不来。
好，现在你是不是明白不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样了，我们来做一些练习试试吧。

12 dudas frecuentes del español

You've just gotten a new job! That means you'll be earning a bit more — so you go out to celebrate and buy yourself that nice car you've been looking at.

Or perhaps you've finally finished paying off your mortgage, so you let yourself eat at restaurants more often, and start getting a nicer coffee on the way to work every day.

Then you look at your bank account and wonder where all the money went!

Something called "lifestyle creep" might be to blame.

Lifestyle creep, also called "lifestyle inflation," is when you find yourself with some more money — for example, after getting a new job or paying off a mortgage — but then spend more as a result.

You find a new lifestyle creeping up on you like a monster from behind the sofa!

It's easy to do: you feel you've earned the right to enjoy yourself and treat yourself to some small luxuries.

But experts warn that this can quickly get in the way of your financial goals — if you're saving for retirement, for example.

And if you get used to the changes you've made to your lifestyle, you could even end up in a worse position than you were in before.

Of course, we all need to treat ourselves from time to time. But if you find you're not saving any more even as your income has increased, that may be a sign that you need to make a change, according to finance expert Robin Aiken.

The trick is to stick to a budget, even as you begin to earn more.

You can still enjoy nice things, says financial planner Paco de Leon, but try to avoid too much impulse buying — that's buying something without giving it much thought.

With some smart saving, you can make that extra income go a long way — and keep the monster behind the sofa!

Halo semua! Selamat pagi, siang, sore dan malam! Bagaimana akhir minggu kalian? 
Ini adalah podcast pertama saya di Italki. Saya lumayan gugup atau “deg-degan”. Kalian tahu arti kata “deg-degan”? Di Bahasa Jepang artinya “どきどき、緊張する”、di Bahasa Inggris artinya “nervous”. 
Saya pikir kalian juga pernah merasa gugup atau deg-degan waktu berbicara di depan orang banyak. Kalau kalian deg-degan, biasanya kalian melakukan apa? Hmm.. kalau saya, bolak-balik ke toilet ^^;  “Bolak-balik” ini juga ekspresi ya, di Bahasa Jepang artinya “行ったり来たり” , di Bahasa Inggris artinya “back and forth”.
Ok, Hari ini sampai di sini ya! Sampai jumpa di podcast berikutnya! Semoga hari ini kalian tidak deg-degan melakukan sesuatu ya ^^
