Grammar

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I usually, I usually invite my friends, uh, and my family on my birthday and my birthday on 24th November.

I usually invite my friends and my family to my birthday, which is on 24th November.

The preposition 'on' is incorrectly used with 'invite'. The correct preposition is 'to' when referring to inviting someone to an event. Also, the sentence structure is repetitive and unclear, so it was improved for clarity.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× then on my birthday, I like watching films and, uh, spend time with my family, uh, with my friends and, uh, cooking dinner with my mom, that's all.

Then on my birthday, I like watching films, spending time with my family and friends, and cooking dinner with my mom. That's all.

The verbs after 'like' should be in the gerund form to maintain parallel structure: 'watching', 'spending', 'cooking'. Also, 'with my family, uh, with my friends' is better combined as 'with my family and friends' for clarity.

Past tense issue

× I like it. Spend time alone.

I liked it. I spent time alone.

The question is about past events, so the verbs should be in the past tense: 'liked' and 'spent'. Also, 'Spend time alone' is a sentence fragment and needs a subject 'I'.

Past tense issue

× I don't know why, but uh, I remember when I was uh, turning 16, I went, uh, to the cinema alone.

I don't know why, but I remember when I was turning 16, I went to the cinema alone.

The sentence is mostly correct, but removing unnecessary fillers improves clarity. No major grammar error here.

Modal verb usage

× Uh, actually no, because uh, I don't like celebrate.

Actually, no, because I don't like to celebrate.

After 'like', the verb should be in the infinitive form 'to celebrate' or gerund 'celebrating'. Here, 'to celebrate' fits better. The original sentence misses 'to'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Uh, I prefer umm, on my birthday, uh, spend time alone only with family.

I prefer to spend time alone with my family on my birthday.

The preposition 'on' is incorrectly placed before 'my birthday'. The correct structure is 'spend time ... on my birthday'. Also, 'only with family' is better as 'with my family' for clarity.
