Chatting— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and direct: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (um, uh) and repetitions, and give a specific example to support your point. Also correct small grammatical issues (e.g., "cheer each other up" and "face life" -> "face life’s challenges").

Ejemplo: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends because they are supportive. For example, when I felt stressed about exams, my friends encouraged me and gave practical study tips, which helped me feel more confident.

Sugerencia: Give a clear topic sentence and organize details with linking words. Avoid repetition and small grammatical errors (e.g., "we we", "the enjoy"). Be specific about topics and include an example or brief reason.

Ejemplo: We usually talk about daily life, such as work or study challenges and happy events. For instance, last week we discussed a job interview one friend had and later shared funny cat videos to relax.

Sugerencia: Begin with a direct answer, then give two concise supporting reasons with linking words. Reduce fillers and correct phrasing ("I feel exhausted"; "deep conversation").

Ejemplo: I prefer chatting with one friend because it is less distracting and more intimate. For example, in a one-on-one conversation I can focus on the other person’s feelings and have a deeper discussion about personal issues.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and give clear reasons using linking words. Fix grammar ("face-to-face", "they are hungry") and avoid vague metaphors like "talk with robot"—explain what you mean. Provide a short example illustrating the advantage of face-to-face interaction.

Ejemplo: I prefer face-to-face communication because you can read facial expressions and tone of voice. For instance, during a difficult conversation with a friend, their body language helped me understand their true feelings, which a text message would not convey.

Sugerencia: Clarify your meaning and correct grammar. Start with a clear statement, then explain briefly how you handle disagreements. Avoid contradictory or confusing sentences ("You need to argue"). Use linking words to show cause and effect.

Ejemplo: No, I rarely argue with my friends because we prefer to resolve disagreements calmly. If a problem arises, we discuss it openly and try to find a compromise so the relationship stays strong.

× I do love to chat with my friends as my friends are very kind people and sometimes we just talk about gossips and umm, most of the time we will uh, cheer up each other to face to life.

✓ I do love to chat with my friends because they are very kind and sometimes we just talk about gossip, and most of the time we cheer each other up to face life.

'Gossips' is incorrect here; 'gossip' is an uncountable noun when referring to idle talk. 'Cheer up each other' has incorrect word order; the correct phrase is 'cheer each other up.' 'To face to life' includes an unnecessary 'to'; use 'face life.' Also 'as my friends are' is wordy; 'because they are' is clearer.

× Basically we we often talk about everyday gossip and also like different challenge and happiness in our life.

✓ Basically we often talk about everyday gossip and also about different challenges and happy moments in our lives.

'Different challenge' should be plural 'different challenges' to match general meaning (quantifier/plural). 'Happiness in our life' is awkward; use 'happy moments in our lives.' Also remove duplicated 'we'.

× Sometimes we just simply share the cat videos and the enjoy the time.

✓ Sometimes we simply share cat videos and enjoy the time.

'The cat videos' is unnecessary definite article; use 'cat videos' generally. 'The enjoy the time' is ungrammatical because of extra 'the' before the verb; remove it. Also 'just simply' is redundant; 'simply' alone is sufficient.

× I prefer to chat with only one friend because when I talk with a group of people, I have to split my attention and I will feel exhausting very soon.

✓ I prefer to chat with only one friend because when I talk with a group of people, I have to split my attention and I get exhausted very soon.

'I will feel exhausting' is wrong: 'exhausting' is an adjective meaning causing tiredness. The correct reflexive state is 'I get exhausted' or 'I feel exhausted.' Use present simple 'get' to match habitual situation.

× When I chat with uh, only one person, we can have very deeply conversation and uh, uh, enjoy the time.

✓ When I chat with only one person, we can have a very deep conversation and enjoy our time.

'Deeply' is an adverb, but a noun 'conversation' needs an adjective 'deep.' Add article 'a' before 'very deep conversation.' 'Enjoy the time' is awkward; 'enjoy our time' is more natural.

× I prefer to communicate face to face because when I talk with people via social media, sometimes I feel like I talk with robot.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because when I talk with people via social media, sometimes I feel like I'm talking to a robot.

'Talk with robot' is incorrect: use 'talk to a robot' and include the article 'a.' Also use continuous 'I'm talking' to match the feeling. 'Talk with' is acceptable but 'talk to' is more natural here.

× I can't see their real face and their real reaction.

✓ I can't see their real faces or their real reactions.

'Their real face' and 'their real reaction' refer to multiple people, so plural 'faces' and 'reactions' are appropriate. Also use 'or' to connect the two items more naturally.

× Even when they hungry, they still can send the smile to me.

✓ Even when they are hungry, they can still send a smile to me.

Missing verb 'are' after 'they' (be-verb). 'Can still' is the natural word order. Use 'send a smile' rather than 'send the smile.' Also 'to me' can be kept but 'at me' is another option; 'to me' is acceptable.

× No, I don't argue with my friends. I don't think we have any questions. You need to argue.

✓ No, I don't argue with my friends. I don't think we have any reason to argue.

'We have any questions. You need to argue.' is incoherent. The intended meaning is likely 'no reason to argue.' Replace with 'any reason to argue.' This fixes sentence structure and meaning.

× When we face to challenge, we just, uh, help each other and work together.

✓ When we face challenges, we just help each other and work together.

'Face to challenge' is incorrect; 'face a challenge' or 'face challenges' is correct. Remove filler 'uh' and use plural 'challenges' for general situations.
