Potluck Party (75)

I threw a potluck party last week.

I invited two Filipinos and two Japanese people.

I asked the two Filipinos to make macaroni salad and tomato sauce spaghetti beforehand.

In March, we went out for lunch together and we talked about their homemade cooking there.

I was very curious about their cooking at the time because they said they use lots condensed milk or sugar for their cooking.

I really wanted to try their sweet macaroni salad and spaghetti.

As promised, they brought them, and we enjoyed their food and also my homemade cooking.

Their cooking was sweet as I expected, but they were very good.

I think I'll try to make Philippine style macaroni salad soon.

I would appreciate it if you could fix my sentences to sound more natural even if you have to fix full sentences.


先週私は、ポットラックパーティーを開きました。

フィリピン人の友達二人と、日本人の友達二人を誘いました。

私は、二人のフィリピン人に、前もってマカロニサラダと、トマトソーススパゲッティーを作って欲しいと頼みました。

三月に、私達は外食に行って、そこで家庭料理について話をしました。

彼らはコンデンスミルクと砂糖をたくさん料理に使うと言っていたので、その時彼らの料理がとても気になりました。

私は、彼らの甘いマカロニサラダとスパゲッティーを食べてみたいと思いました。

約束通り、彼らはその料理を持ってきてくれて、彼らの食べ物と私の家庭料理を楽しみました。

彼らの料理は思った通り甘かったけど、とても美味しかった。

フィリピン風マカロニサラダをすぐ作ってみたいと思う。

Tomato sauce spaghetti sounds a little unusual to me (I’ve never heard it like that, but then again I also only really know about spaghetti bolognaise or spaghetti and meatballs so take this with a grain of salt).

I asked the two Filipinos to make macaroni salad and spaghetti with tomato sauce spaghetti beforehand. I asked the two Filipinos to make macaroni salad and spaghetti with tomato sauce beforehand.

I asked the twomy Filipino guests to make macaroni salad and tomato sauce spaghetti beforehand. I asked my Filipino guests to make macaroni salad and tomato sauce spaghetti beforehand.

Referring to people by nationality alone sounds a little odd and impersonal if they are your guests or friends.

In March, we went out for lunch together and we talked about their homemade cooking there.

In March, we went out for lunch together and w. We talked about their homemade cooking from there. In March, we went out for lunch together. We talked about their homemade cooking from there.

I'm assuming that you're talking about their homemade cooking from the potluck party. I'm unsure what you mean when you talk about their homemade cooking. I'm also unsure who you went out with for lunch in March. Did you eat lunch with the 2 Filipinos and the 2 Japanese people? I'm confused.

In March, we went out for lunch together and we talked about their homemade cooking there. In March, we went out for lunch together and we talked about their homemade cooking.

I think “there” is a little unnecessary here. I might also specify that you asked them to make those dishes because of this. To do that I might delete this sentence. So I would probably say something like “I asked the two Filipinos to make macaroni salad and tomato sauce spaghetti beforehand, as I was very curious about their use of condensed milk and sugar in their cooking following our meeting in March.” Or otherwise you could also delete “following our meeting in March” and say something about having met up with them in March, where you talked about your differing cooking styles.

I'm guessing you're referring to the two Filipinos, but correct me if I'm wrong.

I was very curious about their cooking at the time because they said they use lots of condensed milk orand sugar forin their cooking. I was very curious about their cooking at the time because they said they use lots of condensed milk and sugar in their cooking.

When you say “lots” you usually say that there’s “lots of” something, so lots —> lots of. The “or” made it sound a little like you were unsure of whether they had said condensed milk or sugar, or at least that’s what I thought. The “at the time” part makes sense but the placement of it sounds a little confusing to me.

In addition to my two above corrections, you could replace “also” in the original sentence with “alongside” or “along with”. This is purely for naturalness.

I think “I” is unnecessary there, but it doesn’t really matter. They were —> it was (cooking is singular, so you would use “was” like you did earlier in the sentence. If you still wanted to say it as “they were” then I would specify that you’re talking about the dishes (as in “but the dishes were very good”). You could also add in “also” to say “…but it was also very good”
