× Yes, I definitely like to buy shoes on my birthday and also on special occasions like on our weddings and the school orientations.

✓ Yes, I definitely like to buy shoes on my birthday and also on special occasions like our weddings and the school orientations.

The preposition 'on' is incorrectly repeated before 'our weddings' and 'the school orientations'. In English, when listing examples after 'like', the preposition is usually omitted before each item. Therefore, removing 'on' before 'our weddings' makes the sentence grammatically correct and more natural.

× Yes, I remember that uh, last year I bought a online shoes which is of from a Nike website.

✓ Yes, I remember that uh, last year I bought some online shoes from a Nike website.

The phrase 'a online shoes' is incorrect because 'shoes' is plural and cannot be preceded by the singular article 'a'. Also, 'which is of from' is incorrect and unnecessary. The correct quantifier for plural countable nouns is 'some'. The preposition 'from' is sufficient to indicate the source. Therefore, the corrected sentence uses 'some online shoes from a Nike website'.

× Uh, I only spend $150.00 to $200 on these shoes.

✓ Uh, I usually spend $150.00 to $200 on shoes.

The verb 'spend' in present tense is correct, but the adverb 'only' is awkward here and 'these shoes' is unclear because the context is general spending habits. Using 'usually' better expresses habitual action, and 'shoes' without 'these' is more natural when speaking generally.

× I think that both shoes are a very important, but I mostly prefer a comfortable shoes because when I wear comfortable shoes I feel very relaxed.

✓ I think that both shoes are very important, but I mostly prefer comfortable shoes because when I wear comfortable shoes I feel very relaxed.

The phrase 'a very important' is incorrect because 'important' is an adjective and cannot be preceded by 'a' without a noun. Also, 'a comfortable shoes' is incorrect because 'shoes' is plural and cannot be preceded by the singular article 'a'. Removing 'a' before 'very important' and 'comfortable shoes' corrects the sentence.
