(Regarding 0:56) Could you also say, "Wo ming tian bu yong gongzuo." I learned "gongzuo" in one of my books.

Your videos are really good. I came across them a couple of weeks ago - the one about syntax was quite helpful.

Take care!

@spicykimchi1

Yes, you can say that. shang4 ban1 is just a lot more colloquial.

Please - when do i have to use '' wo bu de bu'' or '' wo bixu

By the Gong zuo also means ''work ' right?

I'm trying to learn but I always end up having to masturbate to her

[Penisland369]

If I took private lessons with her I'm pretty sure it would be called rape.

@YoYoSmileALot yep,不用and 不必means the same literally, but we always use 不用 more often than use 不必 in daily life, the second expression is sort of formal:)

[YoYoSmileALot]

I read in a textbook that you could also say 不必 instead of 不用. I was just wondering if this is true? Is one form more formal than the other?

Thanks!

(And by the way you have an amazing English accent!)
