“Don’t procrastinate and put off your homework until the last minute.”

Procrastinating is ignoring something you need to do and spending time on something else. When a teacher gives students a lot of time for a big project, it’s a sure bet that most students will procrastinate and do the project right before the deadline!

「ぐずぐずと宿題を後回しにしないで!」

「Procrastinate」という動詞は、やるべき事を先送りにして他の事に時間を費やすことです。先生が時間に余裕を持って大きな課題を出すと、多くの生徒が締切ぎりぎりで取りかかるはずです!
