English Tip: It is better to say 'does not' than 'does not.' Many Chinese speakers will say a contraction like 'does not' or 'can not' and I do not understand if they are saying 'does not 'Or' can not '. Chinese speakers often will say the last part of a word too softly. So, when speaking, it is better for a Chinese English speaker to not use so many contractions.
That's all for today.
Goodbye for now.
I hope you have a wonderful day!
