Diary: January 21, 2019 We had guests two days in a row.
We had guests two days in a row. We served potato salad both days. As an ex-boxer guest of the first day ate a lot, I made a lot of potato salad the next day. But the guest of the second day ate normal amount of it and a lot of potato salad was left. I think we will eat it several days. However, I'm glad we had wonderful time with them.Diary: January 21, 2019 We had guests two days in a row.
We had guests two days in a row. We served potato salad both days. As*1 an ex-boxer guest of the first day ate a lot, I made a lot of potato salad the next day. But the guest of the second day ate (a) normal amount of it and*2 a lot of potato salad was left. I think we will eat it (for) several days. However, I'm glad we had (a) wonderful time with them.You did well! 本当に分かりやすい!
*1 こんなほうがいいと思う;
"-Because- an ex-boxer guest ate a lot -on the first day-"
At the start of a sentence, "because" is better than "as"
Its also best to put -time- and -place- at the end of the sentence
It also sounds a bit better, if you put the sentence with the -explanation- or the -cause-, behind the main sentence;
"I made a lot of potato salad on the second day, because an ex-boxer guest ate a lot on the first day"
*2 "..ount of it, so a lot of potato salad was left over"
"to be left over" means 'to not be fully eaten'. "left-overs" is food you save for the next day!
