it’s hard for older people to learn new things or change habits
年を取った人が新しいことを学んだり習慣を変えたりするのは難しい (toshi o totta hito ga atarashii koto o manandari shuukan o kaetari suru no wa muzukashii)
"My dad refuses to use a smartphone — you can’t teach an old dog new tricks."
"父はスマートフォンを使うのを拒んでいます — 年寄りの犬に新しい芸は教えられない。" (chichi wa sumaatofon o tsukau no o kobandeimasu toshiyori no inu ni atarashii gei wa oshierarenai)
keep silent about a secret
to be likely to become successful in the future
to leave a message or opinion on a social media post
to finish something before the deadline
a strong and intense wish to achieve something
to make a sincere promise
