Help with Japanese phrases please?

Question:


I'm trying to write 'Now, I live in England, but I am from Ireland'

I'm still learning, and am not sure about using verbs in the middle of a sentence (i.e. another verb comes at the end).

So I've got:

Ima, Igirisu ni sunde imasu, demo Airurando kara kimashita.

Should it be 'sunde iru'? Is there a smoother way to say this?

Answer:


"(watashi wa) ima, igirisu ni sunde imasuga, (jitsu wa) airurando no shusshin desu."
would be a smoother way to say.

*If the first sentense is short one, "ga" is usually used for "but"
*jitsu wa, hontou wa: actually
