× I have so many friends, but from them I have one train window, uh, whom I've lo known for a long time.
✓ I have so many friends, but among them I have one friend whom I've known for a long time.
The phrase 'one train window' is incorrect and likely a mishearing or mispronunciation of 'one friend'. Also, 'from them' should be 'among them' to correctly refer to a subset of friends. The plural 'friends' is correct, but the singular 'friend' is needed here.
× I, we are friends only for almost 10 years.
✓ We have been friends for almost 10 years.
The present perfect tense 'have been' is required to express an action that started in the past and continues to the present. 'Are friends only for almost 10 years' is incorrect because 'are' is present tense and does not express duration.
× Usually we, it's fun together, uh, and we travel together also, uh, also, uh, gossip a lot.
✓ Usually we have fun together, and we also travel and gossip a lot.
'It's fun together' is incorrect; 'we have fun together' is the correct expression. Also, the sentence structure is improved by combining activities with proper conjunctions.
× And this is the one friend I tell everything in, in my, from, in my India day.
✓ And this is the one friend I tell everything to, from my days in India.
The verb 'tell' requires the preposition 'to' when indicating the person being told. Also, 'in my India day' is incorrect; it should be 'from my days in India' to indicate the time period.
× Well, uh, me and my friend study in same university, so, uh, almost every day will get a chance to meet each other in the university and also the weekend we can we travel new places together.
✓ Well, my friend and I study at the same university, so almost every day we get a chance to meet each other at the university, and on weekends we can travel to new places together.
The pronoun order should be 'my friend and I'. The preposition 'at' is used with 'university'. 'The weekend' should be 'on weekends' for habitual action. Also, 'travel new places' needs the preposition 'to'.
× Yes, yes, I often go out with my friends as I am an integrated person, so I don't have so much friends.
✓ Yes, yes, I often go out with my friends as I am an introverted person, so I don't have many friends.
'Integrated' is incorrect here; likely 'introverted' is intended. 'So much friends' is incorrect; 'many friends' is the correct quantifier for countable nouns.
× Uh, I have a little group of friends so, so in weekend or whenever I get time, I go out with my friends.
✓ I have a small group of friends, so on weekends or whenever I get time, I go out with my friends.
'A little group' is incorrect; 'a small group' is the correct expression. Also, 'in weekend' should be 'on weekends'.
× We had fun and uh, we also eat together.
✓ We have fun and also eat together.
The question is about habitual action, so present tense 'have' and 'eat' should be used instead of past tense 'had'.
× Friends are very important in my life. Uh, in, they are the person I can share everything and, uh, and, and they are the only person that can make my son more into a good mood.
✓ Friends are very important in my life. They are the people I can share everything with, and they are the only ones who can put me in a good mood.
'They are the person' is incorrect; 'they are the people' is correct for plural. 'Make my son more into a good mood' is incorrect and likely meant 'put me in a good mood'.
× So friend are very important in my life.
✓ So friends are very important in my life.
The plural noun 'friends' requires the plural verb 'are'. 'Friend are' is incorrect.
× Uh, it depends. Umm, as I mentioned before that I don't have so many friends, so I have a little, uh, so, so uh, little amount of friends, but uh, uh, whenever I'm sad or I'm my situation is not good, I prefer to spend time with my one friend, one and best friend.
✓ It depends. As I mentioned before, I don't have many friends, so I have a small number of friends. But whenever I'm sad or my situation is not good, I prefer to spend time with my one best friend.
'A little amount of friends' is incorrect; 'a small number of friends' is correct for countable nouns. 'One and best friend' should be 'one best friend'.
× Yes, often I invite my friends at my home because there at home I can spend a lot of time with my friends in restaurants and cafeteria.
✓ Yes, I often invite my friends to my home because at home I can spend a lot of time with them, unlike in restaurants and cafeterias.
The correct preposition is 'to my home' not 'at my home' when inviting. Also, 'there at home' is redundant. 'Restaurants and cafeteria' should be pluralized consistently.
× Whenever when your meal is finished, you have to came from there.
✓ Whenever your meal is finished, you have to leave from there.
'Have to came' is incorrect; the base form 'leave' should be used after 'have to'. Also, 'whenever when' is redundant; 'whenever' alone is sufficient.
