× My hometown in Surat which is located in southern West side in Gujarat.
✓ My hometown is Surat, which is located in the southwest of Gujarat.
Missing verb and awkward preposition usage. This is a sentence structure error because the verb 'is' is required to link subject and complement, and 'southern West side' is unidiomatic. Use 'southwest of Gujarat' for correct geographic phrasing. Suggestion: include the verb 'is' and use common directional phrase 'southwest of'.
× My hometown is a cleared city in the world and there are lots of park, amusement park, house, hospital, temples.
✓ My hometown is a clean city and there are lots of parks, amusement parks, houses, hospitals, and temples.
The adjective 'cleared' is incorrect; 'clean' conveys the intended meaning. Also plural nouns are required when speaking generally about many items. This is an adjective/adverb and pluralization issue. Suggestion: replace 'cleared' with 'clean' and use plural forms for countable nouns and include 'and' before the last item in a list.
× My hometown is a cleared city in the world and there are lots of park, amusement park, house, hospital, temples.
✓ My hometown is a clean city in the world and there are lots of parks, amusement parks, houses, hospitals, and temples.
The list contains singular nouns where plural forms are needed when referring to many items ('lots of'). This is a singular/plural issue. Suggestion: use plural nouns after quantifiers like 'lots of'.
× So I like my hometown.
✓ So I like my hometown.
This sentence is grammatically correct in present simple to express a general preference. No change needed. Explanation: 'like' correctly expresses a current, general state.
× I have lived in after six years when I got married.
✓ I moved there six years ago when I got married.
Incorrect verb tense and phrasing. 'I have lived in after six years' is ungrammatical. Use simple past 'moved' and time expression 'six years ago' to match the completed action at a specific past time. This is a past tense and sentence structure error. Suggestion: say 'I moved there six years ago when I got married.'
× Yes, my hometown is a good place for young people because there are so many varieties and so many successful hospitals and even companies.
✓ Yes, my hometown is a good place for young people because there is a great variety of services, many successful hospitals, and several companies.
'So many varieties' is vague and unidiomatic; use 'a great variety of' for uncountable/abstract variety. Also article and plural consistency is needed: 'many successful hospitals' and 'several companies'. This is an article and word choice issue. Suggestion: be specific about what 'varieties' refers to and use appropriate quantifiers.
× There are so many opportunities.
✓ There are many opportunities.
While grammatically acceptable, 'so many' is informal and repetitive in context. This is a sentence structure/style suggestion to improve register and avoid redundancy. Suggestion: use 'many opportunities' for clarity and formal tone.
× So I think always the young people, always good place for for young people.
✓ So I think it is always a good place for young people.
Unclear word order, missing subject and verb, and duplicate words ('for for'). This is a sentence structure error. Suggestion: provide a clear subject 'it' (referring to the hometown), verb 'is', and correct adjective phrase 'a good place for young people.'
