Gifts— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and correct pronunciation and grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetitions (e.g., "I I"), and replace vague phrases with precise expressions. Use linking words to connect ideas (e.g., "because", "so") and limit to 3–4 sentences. Also correct collocations: say "personal touch" instead of "your hand touch" and "I consider myself a giver."

Ejemplo: Yes, I consider myself good at giving gifts. I especially enjoy handmade or creative presents because a personal touch makes them more meaningful. I like seeing the surprise and happiness on people’s faces when they receive something unexpected, which makes giving very rewarding for me.

Sugerencia: Provide a clear topic sentence saying typical occasions or timing (birthdays, celebrations, or spontaneously). Reduce fillers (uh), use linking words like "usually" and "also," and be specific about examples of biodegradable wrapping and why you choose it. Keep to 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: I usually give gifts on special occasions such as birthdays and festivals, but I also give them spontaneously when I notice someone needs something. I always try to choose something useful for them, and I wrap it in biodegradable paper to be eco-friendly and to add a personal touch.

Sugerencia: Open with a direct topic sentence about main considerations (needs, preferences). Avoid hesitations (umm). Use linking words like "because" and give a specific example (ask about hobbies or look at their wishlist). Clarify what you mean by "seen" (felt appreciated). Keep answers concise and structured.

Ejemplo: When choosing a gift, I focus on the recipient’s needs and preferences because I don’t want to give something they already have. For example, I might ask about their hobbies or check their wish list, so I can choose something useful that will make them feel appreciated.

Sugerencia: Start with a clear statement (yes/no) and give one or two brief examples of handmade gifts you made. Avoid repetition and unclear phrases like "very seen, very hearing." Explain the effect on the recipient with precise words (e.g., "appreciated, valued"). Use linking words such as "for example" or "because."

Ejemplo: Yes, I often give handmade gifts. For example, I have made knitted scarves and hand-painted cards because these items feel personal and show I put time into them, which makes recipients feel appreciated and happy.

Sugerencia: Make a clear opinion sentence and support it with reasons. Correct grammar and word choice ("represent your emotion" -> "represent your feelings", "make them feel seen"). Avoid contradictory fragments and unclear words like "sin" or "hard." Use linking words ("because", "however"). Keep it within 3 sentences.

Ejemplo: I don't think expensive gifts express feelings better because cost does not equal thoughtfulness. Handmade or thoughtful presents often convey more emotion, since they show time and care, and they make the recipient feel valued.

× I love to gift people.

✓ I love gifting people.

When expressing enjoyment of an activity, English commonly uses the gerund (verb + -ing) after 'love' for general habits: 'I love gifting people.' Using 'to gift' is grammatically possible but less natural here; prefer the -ing form for spoken/fluent style.

× I find like whenever your hand touch is there the gift become more expensive.

✓ I find that when your hand touch is there, the gift becomes more special.

Multiple pronoun and verb issues: 'your hand touch is there' is ungrammatical; 'become' should agree with singular 'gift' (becomes). 'More expensive' is likely wrong meaning; replace with 'more special.' Use 'find that when' for clarity and correct subject-verb agreement.

× So whenever I'm gifting something, uh, it's always on my mind that I'm giving something important to them so that they can use it as well as I wrap it with something biodegradable which has a touch of my hand.

✓ So whenever I'm gifting something, it's always on my mind that I'm giving them something important that they can use, and I wrap it in something biodegradable that has a personal touch.

Problems: pronoun order and verb forms. 'Giving something important to them so that they can use it' is wordy; use 'giving them something important that they can use.' 'Wrap it with' should be 'wrap it in.' 'Touch of my hand' is awkward; use 'personal touch.' Also ensure parallel structure with 'and' connecting two actions.

× I try to find out what they need the most.

✓ I try to find out what they need most.

'The most' is unnecessary; with 'need' the adverb 'most' is sufficient and more natural: 'what they need most.'

× So whenever I'm gifting something, uh, it's always on my mind that I'm giving something important to them so that they can use it as well as I wrap it with something biodegradable which has a touch of my hand.

✓ So whenever I'm gifting something, it's always on my mind that I'm giving them something useful, and I wrap it in biodegradable packaging with a personal touch.

Original sentence is long and unclear with awkward clauses. Break into clearer coordinated parts: purpose ('giving them something useful') and method ('I wrap it in biodegradable packaging with a personal touch'). Improves flow and grammatical correctness.

× I try to talk to them a lot just to find out what actually they need instead of giving them something they don't need or they already have something.

✓ I try to talk to them a lot just to find out what they actually need instead of giving them something they don't need or already have.

Word order 'what actually they need' should be 'what they actually need.' Remove redundant 'something' after 'already have.' Streamline for natural English.

× I find it quite umm, unreasonable, so I try to figure it out what they do need at that time.

✓ I find it quite unreasonable, so I try to figure out what they do need at that time.

Incorrect placement of 'out' in 'figure it out' and extra filler 'umm' removed. Use 'figure out what' not 'figure it out what.'

× So I try to give them that thing, uh, it makes them happy as well as umm, seen, which is very important.

✓ So I try to give them that item; it makes them feel seen, which is very important.

'That thing' is vague—'that item' is better. Use a semicolon or split into sentences. 'Makes them happy as well as seen' is awkward; rephrase 'makes them feel seen.' Avoid filler 'umm.'

× A lot, a lot of gift I have given to people were handmade.

✓ A lot of the gifts I have given to people were handmade.

Use plural 'gifts' and proper word order: 'A lot of the gifts I have given...' Also ensure 'have given' matches past participle usage with plural object.

× I love this area or the theme of making handmade gifts.

✓ I love the idea of making handmade gifts.

'Area or the theme' is unnatural; 'the idea of making handmade gifts' conveys intended meaning simply and correctly.

× It gives them the homely feeling I would say.

✓ It gives them a homely feeling, I would say.

Use indefinite article 'a homely feeling.' Add comma before tag 'I would say.'

× And whenever I give someone something handmade, it makes them very seen, very hearing, very happy.

✓ And whenever I give someone something handmade, it makes them feel seen, heard, and very happy.

'Seen' and 'hearing' used as adjectives are incorrect; use 'feel seen' and 'heard.' Put adjectives in parallel order and include commas appropriately.

× Expensive gift comes with obviously with money.

✓ An expensive gift obviously comes with a cost.

Missing article 'An' before 'expensive gift.' Remove duplicated 'with.' 'Comes with money' is odd; better 'comes with a cost' or 'requires money.' Ensure natural collocation.

× I value money a lot.

✓ I value money a lot.

This sentence is grammatical; no change needed. Included for completeness.

× But then again, I feel like handmade gifts are represent your emotion towards them.

✓ But then again, I feel like handmade gifts represent your emotions toward them.

Remove auxiliary 'are' before 'represent.' Use plural 'emotions' and 'toward' (or 'towards') and ensure subject-verb agreement: 'gifts represent.'

× So handmade gifts makes them feel like sin.

✓ So handmade gifts make them feel seen.

Subject 'handmade gifts' is plural so verb should be 'make' not 'makes.' 'Sin' is likely a mispronunciation for 'seen.' Correct to 'seen.'

× And I love to make people feel that they're being seen, they're being hard.

✓ And I love to make people feel that they're being seen and heard.

'Hard' is incorrect; should be 'heard.' Use parallel structure 'seen and heard.' 'They're being' can be 'they are' but contraction is fine in speech.
