× my booster friend is a small we've shared a strong bond for several years to be exact
✓ my best friend is someone with whom I've shared a strong bond for several years to be exact
The phrase 'booster friend is a small' is incorrect and unclear. 'Booster' is likely a mispronunciation or misuse of 'best'. Also, 'we've shared' requires a clear subject. The correction clarifies the singular noun 'friend' and the plural verb agreement with 'we've shared'.
× So it's, it's a sense, so it's since, uh, 2016.
✓ So it's been since 2016.
The phrase 'it's a sense' is incorrect and redundant. The correct preposition to indicate time from a point in the past is 'since'. The sentence is simplified to express the duration correctly.
× She's very supportive, helpful and reliable person and I can't help.
✓ She's a very supportive, helpful, and reliable person, and I can't help but appreciate her.
The sentence lacks the article 'a' before 'person'. Also, 'I can't help' is incomplete; it should be 'I can't help but appreciate her' to convey the intended meaning. Commas are added for correct listing.
× I usually support my friends when they face a challenge or a difficulty task.
✓ I usually support my friends when they face a challenging or difficult task.
The phrase 'a difficulty task' is incorrect; the adjective form 'difficult' should be used. Also, 'a challenge' is correct, but 'challenging' is more natural when paired with 'task'.
× I love to be a reliable person so they can just depend on me whenever they need me.
✓ I love to be a reliable person so they can depend on me whenever they need me.
The word 'just' is unnecessary and can be omitted for clarity and formality in this context.
× For example, during difficult situations, I like to encourage them by.
✓ For example, during difficult situations, I like to encourage them.
The sentence ends abruptly with 'by' without completing the thought. Removing 'by' completes the sentence properly.
× It depends actually on the activity, on the activity that we have to do together.
✓ It actually depends on the activity that we have to do together.
The phrase 'depends actually on' is awkward; 'actually depends on' is the correct word order. Also, the repetition of 'on the activity' is unnecessary.
× if we want to talk about gossips in the gossips in the, in the about the work, about work.
✓ if we want to talk about gossip at work.
The phrase is repetitive and confusing. 'Gossip' is uncountable and does not take 'gossips'. The preposition 'at' is appropriate for 'work' in this context.
× We often meet together outside to strength our bond and then to to speak about the gossips in the in the work area and to address the elephant in the room, which means to address the elephant in the room to discuss.
✓ We often meet outside to strengthen our bond and to talk about gossip at work and to address the elephant in the room, which means to discuss an obvious issue.
'Strength' should be the verb 'strengthen'. 'Gossips' should be 'gossip' as it is uncountable. 'In the work area' is better expressed as 'at work'. The phrase 'address the elephant in the room' is repeated unnecessarily; the explanation is added for clarity.
× whenever I'm dressed, I rely on them to think with me or to think with me and.
✓ whenever I'm stressed, I rely on them to think with me.
The word 'dressed' is incorrect; the intended word is likely 'stressed'. The sentence ends abruptly; the correction completes it properly.
× if we plan to do something that something we are interested in, so I prefer meeting with the group of friends,
✓ if we plan to do something that we are interested in, I prefer meeting with a group of friends,
The phrase 'something that something' is redundant. Also, 'the group of friends' should be 'a group of friends' to indicate any group, not a specific one.
× to speak about personal issues so I prefer to meet one friend in order just to focus more on the.
✓ to speak about personal issues, so I prefer to meet one friend in order to focus more on them.
The sentence is incomplete and lacks the object of 'focus on'. Adding 'them' completes the thought. A comma is added for clarity.
× From my perspective, gathering in a home is is special because it's quieter than public places and less noisy, so we can speak freely and act normally without worrying about the rules and restrictions.
✓ From my perspective, gathering at home is special because it's quieter than public places and less noisy, so we can speak freely and act normally without worrying about rules and restrictions.
The preposition 'in a home' is better expressed as 'at home' when referring to gathering. The repeated 'is is' is corrected to 'is'. The article 'the' before 'rules and restrictions' is unnecessary and removed.
