Quick vocab tip - 改天

改天: Another day / someday soon

改天 means sometime in the not-too-distant future. It refers to an unspecific day, but usually means a few days from now.

e.g.
  1. 我今天有事, 咱们改天再说吧: I'm busy today, let's do it another day
  2. 我改天过来看你: I'll come and see you in a few days

But be warned! My landlady uses 改天 all the time, and in her case it usually means in a few weeks or months, or possibly never!
