× I love eating chocolate, but not like usually.
✓ I love eating chocolate, but not usually.
The adverb 'usually' should be placed directly after the verb or at the end of the sentence for correct word order. 'Not like usually' is incorrect; it should be 'not usually'. This improves sentence clarity and grammatical correctness.
× I eat chocolate frequently.
✓ I eat chocolate frequently.
This sentence is grammatically correct and requires no correction.
× Umm, well that's because the chocolate is so sweet for me and that's why I eat it frequently and not usually.
✓ Umm, well that's because the chocolate is so sweet for me and that's why I eat it frequently and not usually.
The phrase 'not usually' is correctly placed here to contrast with 'frequently'. No correction needed.
× Probably once in three months, I guess because I'm not a fan of sweets.
✓ Probably once every three months, I guess, because I'm not a fan of sweets.
The phrase 'once in three months' is less natural than 'once every three months' when expressing frequency. Adding commas improves sentence clarity.
× No, as I said, I hated the sweets.
✓ No, as I said, I hated sweets.
The definite article 'the' is unnecessary before 'sweets' when speaking generally. Removing 'the' makes the sentence more natural.
× I ate it like once in three months.
✓ I ate it like once every three months.
Similar to previous, 'once in three months' should be 'once every three months' for natural frequency expression.
× And yeah, as a kid the situation was same.
✓ And yeah, as a kid, the situation was the same.
The phrase 'was same' is incorrect; it should be 'was the same' with the definite article 'the'. Also, commas improve readability.
× Because it's sweet, it's so delicious, by the way.
✓ Because it's sweet, it's also very delicious.
Starting a sentence with 'Because' is acceptable if followed by a main clause. 'By the way' is informal and unnecessary here. Using 'also' connects the ideas more smoothly.
× And some of the people like the sweetness in the chocolate and I don't know also it could be a design that they like or the ingredients like the mixture in the chocolates.
✓ And some people like the sweetness in chocolate, and I don't know, it could also be the design they like or the ingredients, like the mixture in chocolates.
'Some of the people' is better as 'some people' for generalization. Added commas improve clarity. 'I don't know also' is better as 'I don't know, it could also be'. Removed unnecessary 'the' before 'chocolate' and 'chocolates'.
× And I can't explain that because it's too hard for me to explain.
✓ I can't explain that because it's too hard for me.
The phrase 'can't explain that because it's too hard for me to explain' is redundant. Removing the second 'to explain' improves sentence flow.
× Well, sometimes I like the white ones which has nuts and sometimes I like the black ones which has nuts as well.
✓ Well, sometimes I like the white ones which have nuts, and sometimes I like the black ones which have nuts as well.
'Ones' is plural, so the verb should be 'have' not 'has' to agree in number.
× And I don't know, it depends on my mood.
✓ And I don't know, it depends on my mood.
This sentence is correct and requires no correction.
× Well, if there's someone is obsessed with chocolates and sweets, yes, this will be like the biggest treasure they are getting from someone.
✓ Well, if there is someone who is obsessed with chocolates and sweets, yes, this will be like the biggest treasure they are getting from someone.
The phrase 'if there's someone is obsessed' is incorrect. It should be 'if there is someone who is obsessed' to correctly combine 'there is' with a relative clause.
× And if like someone doesn't like it, I don't think that that's a great idea.
✓ And if someone doesn't like it, I don't think that's a great idea.
The word 'like' is unnecessary and incorrect here. Removing it makes the sentence grammatically correct and clearer.
