This is a sentence fragment lacking a main verb. It should be connected to the previous sentence with a comma to form a complete sentence.
× I like traditional Indian Pakistani jewelry, especially the earring pieces that comes out like a bell shape.
✓ I like traditional Indian Pakistani jewelry, especially the earring pieces that come out like a bell shape.
The subject 'earring pieces' is plural, so the verb should be 'come' instead of 'comes' to agree in number.
× I do buy it on special occasion for my wife, for example, on our anniversary for Eid and on her birthday.
✓ I do buy it on special occasions for my wife, for example, on our anniversary, Eid, and her birthday.
The phrase 'on special occasion' should be plural 'on special occasions' to indicate multiple events. Also, 'for Eid' should be 'on Eid' because we use 'on' with specific days or holidays. Commas are added for clarity.
× There could be multiple reason why someone some people wear jewelry a specific jewelry for a long time.
✓ There could be multiple reasons why some people wear a specific piece of jewelry for a long time.
'Reason' should be plural 'reasons' to agree with 'multiple'. The phrase 'someone some people' is redundant; 'some people' is correct. Also, 'a specific jewelry' is incorrect; 'a specific piece of jewelry' is the proper expression.
× It could be it was given by a special person and they want to retain their memory and it reminds them of them.
✓ It could be that it was given by a special person, and they want to retain their memory because it reminds them of that person.
The original sentence is awkward and unclear. Adding 'that' clarifies the clause. Also, 'their memory' is vague; specifying 'that person' clarifies the meaning. The sentence is restructured for clarity and grammatical correctness.
× Or it could also be an expression of themselves. They like a specific piece and they want to.
✓ Or it could also be an expression of themselves. They like a specific piece and want to keep it.
The original sentence ends abruptly with 'they want to.' Completing the sentence with 'keep it' clarifies the intended meaning and corrects the sentence structure.
