僕の英作文
We all took off our jackets and stopped stiff attitude.
ネイティブからのアドバイス
– Attitudes are not typically said to ‘stop’, but rather to ‘change’, ‘shift’, ‘be lost’, or ‘be shed’. I thought in this context the verb ‘shed’ was particularly apt because this word can also refer to the removal of items of clothing.
– I added the definite article ‘the’ because you are referring to a particular attitude.
shedは知らねえよ。。
