× Yes, there are three or four flowers in my home and because my wife loves to grow and watch it, she sometimes take photos of them and post it on social media such as Instagram or Tiktok.
✓ Yes, there are three or four flowers in my home and because my wife loves to grow and watch them, she sometimes takes photos of them and posts them on social media such as Instagram or Tiktok.
The word 'flowers' is plural, so the pronoun referring to it should be 'them' instead of 'it'. Also, the verbs 'take' and 'post' need to agree with the third person singular subject 'she', so they should be 'takes' and 'posts'. この文では、'flowers'が複数形なので、それを指す代名詞は単数の'it'ではなく複数の'them'を使うべきです。また、主語が三人称単数の'she'なので、動詞は三人称単数形の'takes'と'posts'にする必要があります。
× When when he was a child, I loved to grow the tree of orange because my grandfather was a farmer of oranges and I loved to go through the farm.
✓ When I was a child, I loved to grow orange trees because my grandfather was an orange farmer and I loved to go through the farm.
The sentence incorrectly uses 'he' instead of 'I' and repeats 'when'. Also, 'the tree of orange' is unnatural; the correct phrase is 'orange trees' (plural). 'Farmer of oranges' is better expressed as 'orange farmer'. この文では、'he'が誤って使われており、'when'が重複しています。また、'the tree of orange'は不自然で、正しくは'orange trees'(複数形)です。'farmer of oranges'は'orange farmer'と表現するのが自然です。
× No, I don't have enough knowledge about growing plants and so I always browse the Internet and get information and my wife sometimes gives me advice of doing it.
✓ No, I don't have enough knowledge about growing plants, so I always browse the Internet to get information, and my wife sometimes gives me advice on doing it.
The phrase 'advice of doing it' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'advice on doing it'. Also, adding commas improves sentence clarity. 'advice of doing it'は誤用で、正しくは'advice on doing it'です。また、文の明瞭さのためにコンマを追加しました。
× Yes, on special occasions such as someone's birthday or anniversaries, Chinese people tend to give a book at the flowers such as rose, Tulip or sunflowers because it is one of the most important cultures in that country.
✓ Yes, on special occasions such as someone's birthday or anniversaries, Chinese people tend to give flowers such as roses, tulips, or sunflowers because it is one of the most important cultural traditions in that country.
The phrase 'give a book at the flowers' is incorrect and unclear; it should be 'give flowers'. Also, flower names should be pluralized ('roses', 'tulips', 'sunflowers'). 'Cultures' should be 'cultural traditions' for clarity. 'give a book at the flowers'は誤りで意味が不明瞭なので、'give flowers'に修正しました。また、花の名前は複数形にし、'cultures'は'cultural traditions'に変更して意味を明確にしました。
