Sparing and Appreciating

This morning, IN THE DREAM,

I was near by Kitasenri-Station
I was trying to teach young people “Differentiation between sparing(ケチる) and appreciating (大切にする) ”.
But the young people couldn't understand that , because I had not understood.
So I started thinking about the se differentiations.


After w aking up, I checked the meaning of sparing and appreciating .


Spare v
 To use with out wasting.
 To be free from an obligation or duty.
 To treat with inordinate(exceeding normal limit) gentleness and care.

Old English sparian
 To make oneself free from harming.
 To allow to go free.



Appreciate v.
 To recognize the quality, significance.
 To be fully aware of or sensitive to.

Late Latin appretiatus
 To esteem or value highly.

Late Latin appretiare
 Value, estimate



The differentiation is knowing or not the real value of the things .
