× I don't send emails that often.
✓ I don't send emails that often.
No article error; sentence is fine. No correction needed.
× I would only send e-mail if it really necessary and something official.
✓ I would only send an e-mail if it is really necessary or if it is something official.
The original sentence lacks the verb 'is' before 'really necessary' and uses 'and' where 'or' is more appropriate to show alternative conditions. Add the article 'an' before 'e-mail' because it refers to a single instance. Suggestion: include the verb 'is', use 'an e-mail', and use 'or' to list alternatives.
× For example, if I'm having a job interview, I would write an e-mail and ask them for the time.
✓ For example, if I have a job interview, I would write an e-mail and ask for the time.
Use simple present 'have' for scheduled events rather than continuous 'I'm having' in this context. 'Ask them for the time' is redundant; 'ask for the time' is more natural. Keep article 'an' before 'e-mail'.
× I will send e-mail to others if it is a formal matter like for example a job application or if I don't have the WhatsApp contact of the other person, I would write an e-mail.
✓ I send e-mails to others if it is a formal matter, for example a job application, or if I don't have the other person's WhatsApp contact; I would then write an e-mail.
Mixing future and conditional tenses creates inconsistency. Use present simple 'I send e-mails' for habitual actions. Use plural 'e-mails' for general reference. Reorder and punctuate the sentence for clarity; use possessive 'other person's'.
× No sending emails.
✓ No, sending e-mails is not common.
Fragment 'No sending emails.' lacks grammatical structure. Provide a full sentence with a subject and verb. Use 'e-mails' plural and 'is not common' to express the idea.
× Not very popular in China.
✓ It is not very popular in China.
Sentence fragment missing subject and verb. Add 'It is' to form a complete sentence.
× We would usually use the app WeChat.
✓ We usually use the app WeChat.
Use simple present 'usually use' for habitual actions instead of conditional 'would usually'. Remove 'would' to match general statement.
× It's similar to the app WhatsApp.
✓ It's similar to WhatsApp.
Redundant article 'the app' before 'WhatsApp' is unnecessary. Use 'similar to WhatsApp' for natural expression.
× We would usually on only communicate on the app.
✓ We usually only communicate on the app.
Incorrect word order and extra preposition 'on'. Remove 'on' before 'only' and use 'usually only communicate on the app' or better 'usually only communicate via the app'. Recommendation: place adverb 'only' before the verb phrase and use 'via' for means of communication.
× I think sending emails will be less popular in the future because the messaging apps we have, like WeChat or WhatsApp are very multifunctional.
✓ I think sending e-mails will be less popular in the future because the messaging apps we have, like WeChat or WhatsApp, are very multifunctional.
Mostly correct; add commas for clarity and keep 'e-mails' consistent. No tense change needed.
× It's easy to contact.
✓ They make it easy to contact people.
Original sentence is vague and lacks an object. Specify who or what makes contact easy: 'They' (the apps) make it easy to contact people. This supplies the missing object and completes the thought.
