A Museum of Japanese History (99)

There's a large museum called National Museum of Japanese History in my prefecture.

You can learn about Japanese history there.

It consists of six galleries and it takes time to look around all of them.

In the first gallery, you can see very old historical things, and in the second gallery, display items are a little bit newer compared to the first gallery.

In the sixth gallery, you can see the modern items.

For example, you can see inside of Japanese houses or popular magazines or anime things in 1900s.

I like the first and sixth gallery.


私の住んでる所に「国立歴史博物館」という大きな博物館があります。

そこでは、日本の歴史について学ぶことができます。

それは6つの展示室で構成されていて、全部見るのにかなり時間がかかります。

1番目の展示室では、とても古いものが見られます、そして2番目の展示室では、1番目の展示物に比べると少し新しい物が展示してあります。

6番目の展示室では、一番新しいものが見られます。

例えば1900年代の日本の家の中の様子とか、人気のあった雑誌やマンガなど。

私は、1番目と6番目の展示室がすきです。

Corrections

There's a large museum called the National Museum of Japanese History (国立歴史民俗博物館) in my prefecture, just north of Tokyo.

NOTE: Many readers might want to *where* the museum is.

You can learn about Japanese history there.

MORE PRECISELY: It consists of six galleries and it takes timeat least ** hours to look around all of them.

The original was vague; a more precise is better.

In the first gallery, you can see very old historical things, and in the second gallery, display items are a little bit newer compared to the first gallery.

In the sixth gallery, you can see the[some] modern items.

For example, you can see inside of Japanese houses or popular magazines or anime things infrom the 1900s.

I [paricularily] like the first and sixth galleryies.

Hope to visit there someday.

It consists of six galleries and it takes tima while to look athroundgh all of them.

Suggests that it's a long time. You can also say it "takes some time" or "quite a bit of time" to look through them

In tThe first gallery, you can see displays very old historical thingitems, and in the second gallery, displays items that are a little bit newer (compared to the first gallery).

Parallel sentence structure to make it flow better.

In the sixth gallery, you can see the most modern items.

For example, you can see the inside of a 1900s Japanese houses, or popular magazines or anime things in 1900s.

I like the first and sixth gallery.

I like your corrections and explanations.

A Museum of Japanese History Museum

"Japanese history museum" sounds more general, which is good because you used the determiner "a" here instead of "the" which is a lot more general. This is a pretty minor correction, but I feel like its good.

If there was one specific main japanese history museum that everyone knew about or was the main place people went to though, "The Museum of Japanese History" or "The National Museum of Japanese History" etc. could be good.

There's a large museum called The National Museum of Japanese History in my prefecture.

It consists of six galleries and ithat takes time to look around all of them a while to get through.

or maybe "It consists of six galleries that each take a fair amount of time to get through."

Your sentence is not inherently wrong. These are just some nice alternative ways of saying it that I feel flow better.

In tThe first gallery, you can see features (replicas/models of) very old historical thingobjects, and in the second gallery, display items are a little bit newer compared to the first gallery has (models of) slightly more recent items.

this is really hard to correct, its not your fault though, just, as the corrector many assumptions have to be made.

In the sixth gallery, you can see'll find exhibits from the modern itemsera.

For example, you can see insidethe interior of Japanese houses, or popular magazines orand anime things in, all from the 1900s.

I like the first and sixth gallery.

This could be interpreted as you only liking the first and sixth gallery and not any of the other ones. You might consider putting "the most" on the end, so "I liked the first and sixth gallery the most."

I think just in general I would have written this a bit differently. It might have been more concise to just say something like "As you progress from the first gallery to the sixth, you'll encounter many significant artifacts from Japanese history, with each gallery bringing you closer to the modern era." The way you wrote it wasn't inherently wrong or anything though.

Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations. And thank you for giving me natural sentences. I appreciate your help.

"As you progress from the first gallery to the sixth, you'll encounter many significant artifacts from Japanese history, with each gallery bringing you closer to the modern era." <ーThis is exactly what I wanted to say.

It consists of six galleries and it takes (a lot of / quite some) time to look around all of them.

In the first gallery, you can see very oldancient historical things, and in the second gallery, display items are a little bit newer compared to the first gallerymore recent in comparison.

In the sixth gallery, you can see thmore modern items.

In this sentence "more" doesn't mean "additional".

Instead, it is being used as a comparison word with the previous sentence.

Sort of like this:
"The sixth galley has items which are 「more modern」 than the first gallery"

For example, you can see inside of Japanese houses or popular magazines or anime things infrom the 1900s.

I like the first and sixth gallery best.

In Japanese, you wrote 1900年代の日本の家の中の様子とか, so I think you mean only the houses are from the 1900s. If 1900s is at the end of sentence, it sounds like you're saying that the houses, magazines, and anime things are all from the 1900s. But I think you're talking just about the houses from the 1900s, so I changed it.

I also changed "popular" to "used to be popular" because you're talking about magazines and anime that were popular in the historical past.

I like the first and sixth galleryies.

Sounds very interesting! I'd love to go to the National Museum of Japanese History and other places in Chiba like Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea. The only place I've been to in Chiba is Narita Airport, and that was three years ago when I first came to Japan.

Thank you so much as always.
I'll try again.
I wanted to write "In the sixth gallery, you can see the lifestyles and trends from the 1900s. The exhibits are interior of Japanese houses, everyday items and publications." Does it make sense?

The museum is very good because in April, you can enjoy cherry blossom viewing outside as well. The garden is quite big, so you can enjoy walking, too.

Oooh, I see! That makes sense. I would just change a few small things in those two sentences, but it looks good! Here's how I would write it:

"In the sixth gallery, you can see lifestyles and trends from the 1900s. The exhibits include interiors of Japanese houses, everyday items, and publications."

And nice, I'd like to go there sometime in the spring. :)
