YOU SAID:
I didn't know Pineapple soda was a thing
INTO JAPANESE
私はパイナップルソーダが物であることを知りませんでした
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I didn't know that pineapple soda was a thing
INTO JAPANESE
パイナップルソーダが物だとは知らなかった
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I didn't know that pineapple soda was a thing
That didn't even make that much sense in English.
