    Hello Jim-san!

    It looks like you had some trouble with chapter 17. Your answer to question number 2 is good, but you made some mistakes in question numbers 1 and 3.

    1. A;A;B;A
    →B;A;D;D

    よし子さん:たかし君まだ来てないの?今日は8時からパーティーなのに!
    のぶ子さん:たかし君は、今日は仕事が忙しかった( って )。一旦家に帰っ( て )すぐ来るって言ってたよ。
    よし子さん:早く来る( といい )な。たかし君がいない( と )つまらないよ。

    Yoshiko: Hasn’t Takashi arrived yet? The party will start at 8!
    Nobuko: Takashi said he was busy at work today. He also said that he will come after he stopped by his home.
    Yoshiko: I hope he comes soon. It’s boring without him.

    2. A;C
    →Good!!

    3. A;A;B;C;A
    →A;D;A;C;B

    昨日、家族でAレストランに行ったんですけど、混んでい( るみたい )だったので、代わりにBレストランに行きました。Aレストランに( 行ってみたい )んですが、あそこはいつも混んでいるので、まだ( 行った )事がありません。
    今度は、( 行く前 )に予約を( しておこう )と思います。

    I went to Restaurant A yesterday, but it looked crowded so I went to Restaurant B instead. I want go to Restaurant A someday, but it’s always crowded there so I haven’t been there yet. I think I should reserve a seat before I go next time.

    Your answers were close, but not the best match.
    Let me know if you have any questions!

    I wonder if Japanese St. Patrick’s event vendors sell them. I will look for it next year 🙂

    I haven’t seen an Irish potato before! It does look like a potato. Is it only available on St. Patrick’s Day?

    なるほど!

    私はアメリカにいた時も、友達が宗教に関係なくパーティーをしていましたから、セント パトリックスデーはハロウィーンみたいに誰でもパーティーをするのかと思っていました。

    私は日本のセントパトリックスイベントにも行った事がありますが、St.Patrickについての説明も、お祝いをする理由も、起源も説明はありませんでした。メキシカンフードのお店や、たこ焼き屋さんや日本酒を出す屋台もあって、ユニークなイベントでした。

    I see. When I was in the US, many friends held parties regardless of their religion, so I just assumed St. Patrick’s Day was like Halloween: everyone has a party. I’ve been to Japanese St. Patrick’s Day events before. At the events, there was no explanation of St. Patrick, the reason to celebrate the day, or the origin of the event. I even saw a Mexican food vendor, takoyaki vendor, and sake vendor there, so it was a very unique event.

    ジムさんの話を聞いて、St. Patrick’s dayがアイルランドに関係のある人全員が祝うイベントのようになってしまっていることは少し残念だなと思いました。勉強になりました。ありがとうございます(*^^)v

    When I saw your comment, I realized that nowadays, St. Patrick’s Day is like “the Irish event” but it is not really an Ireland national event. So, it’s a little sad thing that the “fun party” aspect of St. Patrick’s Day has been expanded all over the world.
    It was a nice thing to think about. Thank you Jim-san!

    残念ですが、生魚が入っていますから、2日目には悪くなってしまいます。
    It contains raw fish, so it will go bad by the next day sadly.
