Grammar Quiz No.19

N2Reading Comprehension〜わけではない

日本料理が嫌いなわけではないが、毎日は食べたくない。

Q. What does the speaker mean?

Translation

It's not that I dislike Japanese food, but I don't want to eat it every day.

Explanation

〜わけではない partially denies an assumption: 'it's not that ...'. The speaker denies disliking Japanese food while still expressing a limit (not every day). Choice A misses the partial negation; C contradicts the second clause.
