Chinese Lunar New Year

Today is a great day for most people from China. The traditional Chinese new year will start tomorrow.

Some children are already waiting for their red envelopes with money in them. They are also waiting for a sumptuous meal tonight, every family is happy to pay for it. Even if they have no money they probably borrow from others to make a nice meal.

I have prepared some red envelopes to give to my daughter, nephew, niece, parents and law-on-parents. My wife is now making a sumptuous supper for us, I took a photo just now and will upload it to the website. Women from China are the best in my eyes, I have to admit that most Chinese women are more excellent than Chinese men.

I remember When I was a child, my parents and some older relatives would give me some money on the eve of the Lunar New Year. My older sister suggested me save money together with hers, she said if we saved together would make us buy more items. I immediately agreed with her without hesitation. She used our money to buy some popular cassettes she enjoyed at that time, although I didn't like them.

After my older sister worked, she also give me some money in such a moment, she never stint money on me.

いつもありがとございます!
I will never forget the word "すごい"、because when I traveled in Japan, I said to a Japanese my Japanese was "すごい". In fact, I wanted to say "すこし"。He immediately asked two of his Japanese to come to me waiting for my "performance in Japanese".

Chinese Lunar New Year

Today is a great day for most people from China.

The traditional Chinese nNew yYear will start tomorrow.

We usually capitalize the phrase "New Year"

Some children are already waiting for their red envelopes with money in them.

They are also waiting for a sumptuous meal tonight, every family is happy to pay for it.

Even if they have no money they probably borrow from others to make a nice meal.

I have prepared some red envelopes to give to my daughter, nephew, niece, parents and inlaw-on-parents.

Strangely, we don't really say "parents-in-law", at least where I'm from. You can use the word "inlaws" to talk about your mother-in-law and father-in-law.

My wife is now making a sumptuous supper for us, I took a photo just now and will upload it to the website.

Women from China are the best in my eyes, I have to admit that most Chinese women are more excellent thansuperior to Chinese men.

Your original sentence is perfectly fine. I think my correction is a bit more natural. We don't usually say "more excellent" in my experience, either something is excellent or it's not.

You can also say
- surpass men in every regard
- outshine men

I remember Wwhen I was a child, my parents and some older relatives would give me some money on the eve of the Lunar New Year.

My older sister suggested meto me to save my money together with hers, she said if we saved together it would make usallow us to buy more items.

I would put it simply "My sister suggested we combine our money together. She said that way we would be able to buy more valuable items."

I immediately agreed with her without hesitation.

She used our money to buy some popular cassettes she enjoyed at thate time, although I didn't like them.

It is fine to use "that time" here, but it's more natural to use "the time". "At the time" is kind of a common English phrase.

After my older sister started workeding, she also giave me some money in such a moment, she never stint. She was never stingy with her money onwith me.

The last sentence in my correction is a bit awkward I think. I tried to match your intention in the original post. You could also say:
- She was generous with her money on my account
- She never spared any expense for me
But these have slightly different meanings.

Typical older sibling behaviour! Glad she paid you back in the end.

'Sumptuous' is not a common word used in English, I would use 'lavish' instead.

Even if they have no money, they probably borrow some from others to make a nice meal.

I have prepared some red envelopes to give to my daughter, nephew, niece, parents and in-law-on-parents.

In English, you would say 'sister-in-law' for example, but for your partner's parents we would usually say 'in-laws'.

I wasn't quite sure what you wanted to say here as 'stint' is not used like that in English, but I have tried my best to work it out.

Maybe as David has corrected it to "Stingy" is better to put it here.

Ah yes, 'stingy' works here! Stingy means she doesn't spend money on you. You would say "She was stingy - she never spent money on me".

I agree, 'stingy' works well. You can say "She is never stingy with me" if you mean that your sister is generous and spends money on you.
