Picture Description: ‘Hamburger' I’m going to try to describe the picture below. I would be grateful if you could make a correction as natural as possible. ******* This is a picture of a hamburger. Between the buns, there are crispy bacon, melted cheese, a thick patty, a sliced tomato, lettuce and maybe mayonnaise. I love cheese and love to mix it with any food as well, so melty cheese looks very appetizing and it makes me hungry. The only thing I’m concerned about is that it looks so big that it may be too hard to bite! ******* Thanks for reading my notebook.

Hi Elisa -


Grammatically there is very little wrong with what you wrote and in terms of sounding natural you've done a very good job as well.  The most obvious grammatical error is "....there are crispy bacon...".  It should be:  "...there IS crispy bacon....".  Here is how I might tweak it to sound a little more natural:


I'm going to try to describe the picture below.

I would be grateful for any suggestions that might make it sound more natural.

This is a picture of a hamburger. Between the buns, there is: crispy bacon, melted cheese, a thick patty, a sliced tomato, lettuce and maybe mayonnaise. I love cheese on all kinds of other food as well, so the melty* cheese looks very appetizing and makes me hungry.
The only thing I’m concerned about is that it looks so big that I may not be able to bite into it!!

Thanks for reading my notebook.

* I think 'melty' is kind of an informal word, but one that you would expect to hear in advertising, so I think it sounds good here. 

Nice job :)

This is a picture of a typical hamburger. Between the buns, there is crispy bacon, melted cheese, a thick patty, a sliced of fresh tomato, lettuce and maybe some mustard or mayonnaise. I love cheese and love to (enjoy mixing) mix it with any all kinds/types of food as well, so melted cheese looks very appetizing and it makes me (feel) hungry.
The only thing I’m concerned about is that it looks so big that it may be too hard to eat/bite into!
