    Как сказать по-русский:

    We enjoyed our stay in England.
    All my friends have left.
    They were absent yesterday.

    ?

    Спасибо большое!

    Вот мои попытки. Они, скорее всего, неправильны.

    Нам понравилось пребывание в Англии.
    Все мои друзья уехали.
    Они вчера отсутствовали.

    they are correct.
    But I would say "Нам понравилось в Англии." (without "пребывание")

    The first one is a little complicated, much better to drop "пребывание" and just say "Нам понравилось в Англии".
