Example: Yes, I think perfumes are quite expensive. For example, I spend about ¥1000 each month on them. Also, I have to work hard to afford the more expensive ones.
× For example, it cost for me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
✓ For example, it costs me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
The pronoun 'it' is used incorrectly here. The sentence intends to express the cost to the speaker, so 'it costs me' is the correct phrase. Also, 'cost' should be in the third person singular present tense 'costs' to agree with the subject 'it'.
× For example, it cost for me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
✓ For example, it costs me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
The verb 'cost' should be in the third person singular present tense 'costs' to agree with the singular subject 'it'.
× For example, it cost for me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
✓ For example, it costs me about ¥1000 a month if I use perfumes.
The preposition 'for' is unnecessary after 'cost' in this context. The correct expression is 'costs me' without 'for'.
× Additionally, in order to use expensive perfumes, I had to work for a long time.
✓ Additionally, in order to use expensive perfumes, I have had to work for a long time.
Since the context implies a continuing or recent experience, the present perfect tense 'have had to' is more appropriate than the simple past 'had to'.
× For example, I often buy perfume about once a month in a store near my house, because this store has a lot of perfume which smell good, and I often buy a blue perfume.
✓ For example, I often buy perfume about once a month in a store near my house, because this store has a lot of perfumes which smell good, and I often buy a blue perfume.
The pronoun 'which' refers to 'perfume' but 'perfume' is uncountable here. To refer to multiple items, 'perfumes' (plural) should be used, and 'which' correctly refers to them.
