The Expedition of Humphry Clinker — Page 4

English → Vi SIR, Level 8/10

My wife, who is very fond of toasted cheese, presents her compliments to him, and begs to know if there's any of that kind, which he was so good as to send us last Christmas, to be sold in London.

Vợ tôi, người rất thích phô mai nướng, gửi lời chào hỏi đến ông ấy, và mong muốn biết liệu có còn loại phô mai đó, mà ông ấy đã tốt bụng gửi cho chúng tôi vào Giáng sinh năm ngoái, được bán ở London không.
