× I have a friend who I have met over 13 years since I was 13 years old.

✓ I have a friend whom I have known for over 13 years since I was 13 years old.

The phrase 'have met over 13 years' is incorrect because 'meet' refers to a single event. The correct verb is 'have known' to express a continuous relationship over time. Also, 'who' should be 'whom' as the object of the verb 'have known'.

× I really like him and I.

✓ I really like him and me.

The phrase 'I really like him and I' is incorrect because 'I' is a subject pronoun but here it should be an object pronoun 'me' as the object of 'like'.

× We share our interests a lot.

✓ We share many interests.

The phrase 'our interests a lot' is awkward. Using 'many interests' is clearer and more natural to express multiple shared interests.

× When I meet my friend, we usually, uh, we usually hang out outside and play basketball or video games and sometimes we drink at the pub.

✓ When I meet my friend, we usually hang out outside, play basketball or video games, and sometimes drink at the pub.

The sentence has redundant 'we usually' and lacks proper commas to separate activities. Removing redundancy and adding commas improves clarity.

× After we turn 20 years old, we usually link up at a restaurant or at a pub because our most interesting activities activity is drinking.

✓ After we turn 20 years old, we usually meet at a restaurant or a pub because our most interesting activity is drinking.

'Activities activity' is a repetition error; 'activity' is singular here. Also, 'link up' is informal; 'meet' is more appropriate. 'At a pub' can be simplified to 'a pub'.

× Umm, I think I go out with my friend very often because I have a car so I can drive anywhere with my friends and also I can also I can even pick up my friends and we can go to the other city.

✓ I think I go out with my friends very often because I have a car, so I can drive anywhere with them. I can even pick up my friends and we can go to another city.

The sentence has repetition ('also I can also I can'), inconsistent singular/plural ('my friend' vs 'my friends'), and awkward phrasing ('the other city' should be 'another city'). Breaking into two sentences improves clarity.

× Umm, especially for me, I cannot live without my friends because you know, humanity is umm group animal, which means we have to live on in any community.

✓ Especially for me, I cannot live without my friends because, you know, humanity is a social animal, which means we have to live in a community.

'Group animal' is incorrect; the correct term is 'social animal'. Also, 'live on in any community' is awkward; 'live in a community' is correct. The article 'a' is needed before 'social animal'.

× I can say I definitely prefer to spend time with one friend because it is much more easier than it is much more easier to communicate with the others with the other than to a group.

✓ I can say I definitely prefer to spend time with one friend because it is much easier to communicate with one person than with a group.

'Much more easier' is incorrect; 'much easier' is correct. The sentence is also redundant and confusing; simplifying improves clarity.

× When I was younger, I invited my friends very often because, umm, I think before turning 20, the most interesting activity is sleeping in sleeping at the other friend's house.

✓ When I was younger, I invited my friends very often because, before turning 20, the most interesting activity was sleeping over at a friend's house.

The tense should be past ('was' instead of 'is') to match 'when I was younger'. 'Sleeping in sleeping at' is repetitive; 'sleeping over' is the correct phrase. 'The other friend's house' should be 'a friend's house'.

× When I was a student we usually meet at a park or at a basketball field or PC room, but after turning 20 we usually meet at a pub or restaurant or drinking place.

✓ When I was a student, we usually met at a park, a basketball field, or a PC room, but after turning 20, we usually meet at a pub, restaurant, or drinking place.

The past event 'when I was a student' requires past tense 'met'. The rest of the sentence about current habits can remain present tense 'meet'. Commas improve readability.

× I think that uh, that depends on a mood we have at that day because if he needs some deep conversation, we need to go some quiet places.

✓ I think that depends on the mood we have that day because if we need some deep conversation, we need to go to some quiet places.

'A mood' should be 'the mood' for specificity. 'At that day' should be 'that day'. 'If he needs' is incorrect pronoun; should be 'if we need' to match the subject. 'Go some quiet places' needs preposition 'to'.

× But if we want to enjoy and having have a fun, we usually go to a club.

✓ But if we want to enjoy and have fun, we usually go to a club.

'Having have a fun' is incorrect; the correct form is 'have fun'. 'A fun' is incorrect because 'fun' is uncountable and does not take 'a'.
