Part 1

What languages can you speak?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Be more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct errors, and avoid unnecessary words. Use linking words if adding details. Pronunciation/grammar: replace 'free language' with 'three languages', and reorder: 'I'm a native Cantonese speaker; I also speak Mandarin and English.'

Example: I'm a native Cantonese speaker and I also speak Mandarin and English. I learned Mandarin at school and studied English through classes and practice, so I can use all three languages comfortably.

Do you think it is difficult to learn a new language?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Give a concise direct response then support it with specific reasons using linking words. Fix sentence fragments and repetition. Use varied vocabulary (e.g., 'benefit' instead of repeating 'learn').

Example: No, I don't think it's difficult for me because I grew up in a multilingual environment. For example, I studied English and Mandarin at primary school, so I developed listening and speaking habits early, which makes picking up new languages easier.

Will you learn other languages in the future?

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Be concise and avoid repetition. State intention, then give specific reasons with linking words. Correct grammar ('travel to Spain', 'I love the culture').

Example: Yes, I plan to learn Spanish. I want to learn it because I love Spanish culture and food, and I hope to travel to Spain in the future to experience them firsthand.

Why do you learn English?

Score: 52.0

Suggestion: Make a clear topic sentence and avoid repetition and filler words. Explain specific practical reasons and benefits. Use correct grammar and vocabulary: 'English is widely used worldwide' and give concise examples of use (study, work, travel).

Example: I study English because it is widely used around the world. For instance, it helps me communicate with people when I travel, access academic resources, and find job opportunities internationally.

Grammar

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I can speak free language fluently as I'm a native Cantonese and I know how to speak Mandarin and English also.

I can speak my native language fluently because I'm a native Cantonese speaker, and I also speak Mandarin and English.

The original uses 'free language' (incorrect adjective) and 'native Cantonese' as a noun. Change to 'my native language' and 'native Cantonese speaker'. Also move 'also' to correct position. Use 'because' to show reason and commas to separate clauses.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× I love learning new language and I think it's easy for me to learn a new language as I'm already a multilingual speaker.

I love learning new languages and I think it's easy for me to learn a new language since I'm already multilingual.

'New language' should be plural when speaking generally: 'new languages'. 'As' is acceptable but 'since' is clearer for reason. 'Multilingual speaker' can be simplified to 'multilingual'.

Sentence structure errors

× Since I was young. I've been learning English and Mandarin in primary school and I'm also a native Cantonese speaker, so the multilingual environment helps me to learn.

Since I was young, I've been learning English and Mandarin in primary school, and being a native Cantonese speaker in a multilingual environment has helped me learn.

Original had a sentence fragment 'Since I was young.' and awkward clause order. Combine into one sentence, use present perfect 'I've been learning', and use 'has helped' to match the time frame. 'Being a native Cantonese speaker' clarifies subject.

Future tense issue

× Yes I do, I'm planning to learn Spanish in the future as I love the cultures and I love the food in Spain and I would like to travel and Spain for for my future plans.

Yes, I am. I'm planning to learn Spanish in the future because I love the culture and food in Spain, and I would like to travel to Spain as part of my future plans.

Use 'I am' for short answer. 'Cultures' should be 'culture' (referring to Spanish culture). Remove repeated 'for' and use 'travel to Spain'. 'Because' is clearer for reason; commas improve readability.

Incorrect use of articles

× I learn English because it is one of the most important language there are wide widely used in the world now and using English and communicate with different people from many countries and I don't have to learn their own language.

I learn English because it is one of the most important languages and is widely used around the world, so I can use English to communicate with people from many countries and I don't have to learn each country's language.

Change 'language' to plural 'languages'. Remove redundant words 'there are wide widely'. Use 'is widely used around the world'. Replace 'using English and communicate' with 'use English to communicate'. Clarify 'their own language' to 'each country's language'.

Sentence structure errors

× English is already a wide worldwide language for us to dis uh this.

English is already a worldwide language that we can use for this.

Original has filler 'dis uh' and awkward phrasing 'wide worldwide'. Simplify to 'a worldwide language' and 'that we can use for this' to complete the thought.
