Mou tsuitenai yo - Beginner Lesson 155

[Ed]

In Beginner Lesson 155, "Bad day," the phrase "Mou tsuitenai yo" seems to be translated as "It's not my day" in the audio. Can anyone explain this? Doesn't tsuitenai mean something like "not attached"?

Thanks for any help,
Ed

It's the negative form of the expression ついて(い) る, which means to be lucky. Try not to associate it with 付く, it just sounds the same.

Thanks! That helps.
