× I usually go on a shopping before my birthday coming
✓ I usually go shopping before my birthday comes
The phrase 'go on a shopping' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'go shopping'. Also, 'my birthday coming' should be 'my birthday comes' to use the correct verb form and tense.
× we are we were used to celebrate birthday at home to just cutting a cake
✓ we used to celebrate birthdays at home by just cutting a cake
The phrase 'are we were used to' is incorrect; 'used to' is sufficient to indicate past habitual action. Also, 'celebrate birthday' should be plural 'birthdays' and 'to just cutting a cake' should be 'by just cutting a cake' to use the correct preposition and verb form.
× I usually spend a birthday with my friends and family members
✓ I usually spent my birthday with my friends and family members
Since the question refers to the past ('when you were young'), the verb should be in the past tense 'spent' instead of present tense 'spend'. Also, 'a birthday' should be 'my birthday' to specify the occasion.
× we used to dress, uh, different from the other people
✓ we used to dress differently from other people
The adverb 'differently' should be used instead of the adjective 'different' to modify the verb 'dress'. Also, 'the other people' is better as 'other people' in this context.
× And we can we can give a chocolate to a.
✓ And we could give chocolates to others
The sentence is incomplete and repetitive ('we can we can'). It should be corrected to 'we could give chocolates to others' to make it grammatically correct and meaningful.
× it comes, uh, it comes in once in a year
✓ it comes once a year
The phrase 'comes in once in a year' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'comes once a year'. The modal verb is not necessary here.
× my close friends also invited at my home
✓ my close friends are also invited to my home
The verb 'invited' needs the auxiliary 'are' to form the passive voice, and the correct preposition is 'to' instead of 'at' when referring to being invited to a place.
× just we spent time with
✓ we just spend time together
The sentence is incomplete and awkward. It should be 'we just spend time together' to be grammatically correct and clear.
× individuals have a on their special day
✓ individuals have a special day
The phrase 'have a on their special day' is incomplete and incorrect. It should be 'have a special day'.
× it gives us to time to spend quality time with friends
✓ it gives us time to spend quality time with friends
The phrase 'gives us to time' is incorrect; the preposition 'to' should be removed to correctly say 'gives us time'.
