我们重归于好。

Friends! Let help me improve this translation of the joke.

- Why your crockery is brocken?
- We quarreled.
- So, and why sofa is brocken?
- We made peace.

- 为什么你的器皿是打碎的? 为什么你的罐子打坏了?
- 我们吵架了。
- 但为什么沙发是打碎的? 那为什么沙发坏了?
- 我们重归于好。

 

评价:the translation off the last sentence is quite good, but there are some mistakes in the first three sentence. this is a conversation, so you need to use oral chinese.

first sentence: although the word crockery has a meaning 器皿, you'd better use another meaning 罐子,a common 器皿, cuz you should say specificlly. That is just like you will not say I broke furniture but say I broke sofa.

second sentence: this event has happened, so you can use 了 to express this meaning 

Third:here so is a discourse markers, therefore I use 那 to express the same emotion.
