Good Morning! I want to tell you about what I did yesterday. The weather wasn't great, but I decided to go out anyway. There's a village not so far from mine where a carnival party is organized every year in the second Sunday of May. "A carnival party in May?!" you'll wonder. Yes exactly! Now i'll tell you why. They always organized the party in February/March as in the rest of the world (i guess?) until 2020. That year they were ready to do the carnival as usual, but we all know what happened then. At the beginning they postponed it, but then canceled it. That year was a mess and the next one wasn't any better. But in May it seems that a bit of normality was ready to come back. So they did it, a carnival party in May 2021. And since then, they do the party every year in May. It's a tradition now! There are several floats that parade through the streets of the town, each with a different theme. For example, some of yesterday's themes where LEGO, Harry Potter, Disney ecc.. The houses were decorated too. There were a lot of people come to enjoy the party, some of them were also dressed up! There were music, fun and a lot of confetti all over the streets! Unfortunately, it started raining at some point, but we opened the umbrellas and kept partying! I had a lot fun!!
So this was my Sunday, I hope you had a nice Sunday too! :)
About yesterday
Good Morning!
I want to tell you about what I did yesterday.
The weather wasn't great, but I decided to go out anyway.
There's a village not so far from mine where a carnival party is organized every year in the second Sunday of May. There's a village not so far from mine where a carnival party is organized every year in the second Sunday of May.
There's a village not so far from mine that hosts an annual carnival party on the second Sunday of May.
"A carnival party in May?!" you'll wonder.
"A carnival in May?!" you'll wonder.
Here we do not use the future tense. Options:
"... you may wonder."
"...you're wondering."
"... one wonders." <----- much more literary/formal.
Another nice way to put this would be:
""A carnival party in May?!" I hear you say...."
then
"Yes, you heard me right/correctly!"
Also note - in English we would tend to just say "carnival" instead of "carnival party".
Yes exactly! Yes exactly!
Another nice way to put this would be:
""A carnival party in May?!" I hear you say...."
then
"Yes, you heard me right/correctly!"
Now iI'll tell you why.
Now I'll tell you why.
Alternative:
"Let me explain:..."
They always used to organized the party in February/March, as in the rest of the world (iI guess?) until 2020.
They always used to organize the party in February/March, as in the rest of the world (I guess) until 2020.
The passive voice is also good for this sentence:
"The party always used to be organised in Feb/March..."
"The carnival always used to happen in Feb/Mar..."
That year they were ready to do the carnival as usual, but we all know what happened then. That year they were ready to do the carnival as usual, but we all know what happened then.
Sounds better:
"That year the carnival had been ready/due to go ahead as usual, but we all know what happened."
At the beginning they postponed it, but then cancelled it. At the beginning they postponed it, but then cancelled it.
"Initially it was postponed, but later cancelled completely for that year."
That year was a mess and the next one wasn't any better.
But in May it seemsed that a bit of normality was ready to come back.
But in May it seemed that a bit of normality was ready to come back.
So they didwent ahead with it, a carnival party in May 2021.
So they went ahead with it, a carnival party in May 2021.
And since then, they do the party in May every year in May.
And since then, they do the party in May every year.
This word order is more correct.
You can also say:
"Every year since then the party is/has been held in May."
It's a tradition now! It's a tradition now!
Slightly better in this context:
"It's the new tradition!"
There are several floats that parade through the streets of the town, each with a different theme.
For example, some of yesterday's themes where LEGO, Harry Potter, Disney ecc.. For example, some of yesterday's themes where LEGO, Harry Potter, Disney ecc..
English -> etcetera , etc.
We like our consonant clusters thank you.
The houses were decorated too.
There were aA lot of people coame to enjoy the party, some of them were also dressed up!
A lot of people came to enjoy the party, some of them were also dressed up!
You can also say:
"... some of them were in fancy-dress!"
There wereas music, fun and a lot of confetti all over the streets!
There was music, fun and a lot of confetti all over the streets!
Not sure why exactly but we use the singular for the verb in this context.
Unfortunately, it started raining at some point, but we opened theour umbrellas and kept partying!
Unfortunately, it started raining at some point, but we opened our umbrellas and kept partying!
I had a lot fun!!
So this was my Sunday, I hope you had a nice Sunday too! :)
Feedback
Generalmente parlando, l'hai scritto molto bene - le correzioni sono piuttosto leggeri. In particolare nella lingua scritta (es. per una storia) credo che usiamo la voce passiva più in inglese che in italiano. Magari provi di usarla per la prossima! E grazie per i tuoi commenti sul mio italiano.

"A carnival party in May?!" you'll may wonder.
"A carnival party in May?!" you may wonder.
"You'll wonder" is a little bit prescriptive. "May wonder" softens the words and lets the viewer 'choose' whether to wonder or not (if that makes any sense)
Yes exactly!
Now i'll tell you why.
They had always organized the party in February/ or March, as in the rest of the world (iI guess?) until 2020.
They had always organized the party in February or March, as in the rest of the world (I guess?) until 2020.
Since this situation was a past situation but isn't currently true, it's better to say "They had always" instead of "They always"
That year they were ready to do the carnival as usual, but we all know what happened then.

So they did it,: a carnival party in May 2021.

And since then, they do the party every year in May.
It's a tradition now!
