Question about English (US)
Does this sound natural?
"We will stop holding the lesson on Sunday because of students decreasing."
I wonder if I could tell the meaning NOT interrupting and suspending.
Any proper word instead of stop?

Are you putting the class on hold until you have more people? Or are you canceling the Sunday class perminately? It might change how you phrase the sentence.
"Due to a decrease in students, we can no longer offer lessons on Sunday."
Or
"We will no longer be holding lessons on Sunday because of a decrease in attendance." This is a stronger statement, more of a "we will not continue" where the first could be interpreted as a "we are unable to continue."
I hope this helps!
