Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Give a clear preference in the first sentence and then provide a specific, natural reason. Avoid filler words (uh) and awkward phrasing ("feels me very mentally unwind"). Use linking words like "because" or "so" correctly. Keep to two sentences maximum.

× I like purchasing different shorts of shoes quite frequently.
✓ I like purchasing different sorts of shoes quite frequently.
The word 'shorts' is incorrect; the correct noun is 'sorts' meaning types or kinds. Use 'sorts of shoes' to indicate different kinds. Also 'purchasing' and 'quite frequently' are fine. Suggestion: replace 'shorts' with 'sorts'.
× Most recently I purchased a shoes like which is Nike and it is very convenient to.
✓ Most recently I purchased a pair of shoes that are Nike, and they are very comfortable.
'a shoes' is incorrect because 'shoes' is plural; use 'a pair of shoes' for singular purchase. 'like which is Nike' is ungrammatical; use a relative clause 'that are Nike'. 'convenient to' is incorrect collocation for footwear; 'comfortable' is appropriate. Suggestion: use 'a pair of shoes' and match pronouns/plural verbs accordingly. Grammar problem types applied: singular/plural and adjective use.
× Last month I ordered a shoes in online because the shoes was of a discount which I found very appealing.
✓ Last month I ordered a pair of shoes online because they were on discount, which I found very appealing.
Use 'a pair of shoes' not 'a shoes'. 'in online' is incorrect preposition; use 'online' without a preposition. 'the shoes was' has subject-verb agreement error and should be 'they were' or 'the shoes were'. Use 'on discount' or 'at a discount' rather than 'of a discount'. Suggestion: rephrase to 'ordered a pair of shoes online because they were on discount.'
× Usually I spend 1 to 2K for purchasing different kinds of shoes in a month and I think it is a suitable price range to spend on shoes.
✓ Usually I spend 1 to 2K a month on buying different kinds of shoes, and I think that is a suitable price range.
Preposition and wording: use 'spend X a month on buying' rather than 'spend 1 to 2K for purchasing ... in a month'. 'different kinds of shoes' is fine. Avoid repeating 'spend on shoes' at end; concise phrasing improves clarity. Suggestion: 'I spend 1 to 2K a month on buying different kinds of shoes.'
× I prefer comfortable shoes because it uh, lifts my mood and feels me very mentally unwind, so I feel very comfortable with uh shoes.
✓ I prefer comfortable shoes because they lift my mood and help me relax mentally, so I feel very comfortable wearing shoes like that.
Pronoun 'it' does not agree with plural 'shoes'; use 'they'. 'lifts' should be 'lift' to match plural subject. 'feels me very mentally unwind' is ungrammatical; use 'help me relax mentally' or 'make me feel mentally relaxed'. 'with uh shoes' is unclear; 'wearing shoes like that' is clearer. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement and use natural collocations like 'help me relax'.
