The Airplane Burning (9)

I saw an airplane burning on the news yesterday.

There was a big earthquake on January 1st in Japan, and there was a horrible thing happening on the January 2nd in Japan again.

That's too sad.

I'm wondering what will happen today?

By the way I wanted to write 飛行機炎上 in the title.

what should I have written? Could you please teach me?


昨日飛行機が炎上しているニュースをみました。

一月一日に大きな地震があって、一月二日にまた恐ろしいことが起こって悲しすぎます。

今日は何が起こるのかなあ?

ところで、タイトルに「飛行機炎上」と書きたかったんですがどう書いたら良かったですか?教えてもらえますか。

Feedback

I would write 飛行機炎上 as ”Airplane in Flames" (for a title). If you had written in a sentence, e.g., 飛行機は炎上した, I would say, "The airplane went up in flames."

Ooh, Airplane in Flames. Thank you so much for teaching me. I'll remember that.

The Airplane is Burning / The Airplane is on Fire

These are 2 ways you could write your title.

I saw an airplane burning on the news yesterday.

There was a big earthquake in Japan on January 1st in Japan, and there was another horrible thing that happening on theed on January 2nd in Japan again.

As a general rule I would introduce “where” (Japan) the event/subject is before “when” (January 1st, 2nd). Then, in order to explain that a different, equally bad event happened at a different time you can use the word “another” to introduce that different event. When you use “another” at the front of the clause you do not need to add “again” at the end of the clause.

That's tooIt’s all very sad.

“That’s too sad” is grammatically correct, but isn’t conveying the emotion correctly. To refer to these multiple, different events you can say “It’s all…” to reference the overall state of emotions coming from these events.

I'm wondering what will happen today?. / I’m wondering, “What will happen today?”.

This could be handled in two different fashions. The first option is as a statement which you’re making, so no question mark is needed. The second option styles the same idea, but as a hypothetical conversation you’re having with yourself. In English you’ll denote the thoughts you’re speaking in your head with double quotation marks around the words which you’re speaking to yourself. Inside that internal quotation you can place a question mark. Then you end the entire sentence with a period.

By the way I wanted to write 飛行機炎上 in the title.

Unfortunately I don’t understand your native language here, but I did use a translator to try to see what you wanted to write in the title.

Thank you so much for your correction and explaining in detail.

The AI saw an airplane Bburning on the news yesterday.

The title isn't really clear and doesn't have correct grammar. Putting something resembling your first sentence in the title would be better.

Dates are written in writing like "third of March". "And" in this use never directly follows after a comma. It is more appropriate to separate this piece of writing into two sentences.

That's too sadWhich is really tragic.

Unfortunate events are described as tragic usually, not sad.

I can't help you with your translation request, but I have provided you with feedback on your writing. Overall, this is pretty good. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for your collection.

Can I say "Another horrible thing happened again on the second of January, which is really tragic"? or is it better to divide into two sentences?

I would say it is better to divide into two or find ways to connect the two sentences into one. Maybe you can for example replace horrible with tragic while removing the part of the sentence coming after the comma. In this way you can be more concise while not leaving out your post's message. Good work and keep it up!
