× It was such a good memory. It is sorry.
✓ It was such a good memory. I'm sorry.
The phrase 'It is sorry' is incorrect because 'sorry' is an adjective used to express apology and requires a subject like 'I' to be grammatically correct. The correct form is 'I'm sorry.'
× I often do puzzles when I am together with my university colleagues.
✓ I often do puzzles when I am with my university colleagues.
The phrase 'together with' is redundant here. 'Together' and 'with' both indicate companionship, so using both is unnecessary. The correct phrase is 'I am with my university colleagues.'
× and of course the most difficult one are the words puzz puzzles.
✓ and of course the most difficult ones are the word puzzles.
The phrase 'the most difficult one are' mixes singular and plural forms incorrectly. 'One' is singular, 'are' is plural. Also, 'words puzz puzzles' is incorrect; it should be 'word puzzles.' The correct sentence uses plural 'ones' to match 'are' and correct noun form 'word puzzles.'
× As old old people, normally they don't use their mind with new challenges and I think that doing puzzles with for them would put their minds working and yes it would.
✓ As old people, normally they don't use their minds with new challenges and I think that doing puzzles for them would put their minds to work and yes it would.
The phrase 'old old people' is repetitive; one 'old' is sufficient. 'Mind' should be plural 'minds' to agree with 'people.' The phrase 'doing puzzles with for them' is incorrect; 'with' should be removed. 'Put their minds working' is better expressed as 'put their minds to work.'
× I think that doing puzzles with for them would put their minds working and yes it would.
✓ I think that doing puzzles for them would put their minds to work and yes it would.
The preposition 'with' is incorrectly used before 'for them.' The correct preposition is 'for' to indicate the benefit to 'them.' Also, 'put their minds working' is better expressed as 'put their minds to work.'
