× Even if we uh, meet once a year, they are still my close friends.

✓ Even if we uh, meet once a year, they are still my close friend.

The pronoun 'they' is plural, but the subject refers to a single friend. To maintain singular agreement, 'they' should be changed to 'my close friend'.

× I like I like meet my friends and have a lunch or drink coffee and chat.

✓ I like to meet my friends and have lunch or drink coffee and chat.

The verb 'like' should be followed by the infinitive form 'to meet'. Also, 'a lunch' is incorrect because 'lunch' is an uncountable noun and does not need an article here.

× or I have a friends who likes skiing or hiking.

✓ or I have friends who like skiing or hiking.

'A friends' is incorrect because 'friends' is plural and cannot be preceded by 'a'. Also, 'likes' should be 'like' to agree with the plural subject 'friends'.

× I have a friends which UMM and UMM with my friend.

✓ I have friends who UMM and UMM with my friend.

Again, 'a friends' is incorrect; 'friends' is plural and should not have the article 'a'. Also, 'which' should be 'who' when referring to people.

× I prefer to do some activities like long walk or hiking or skiing or a swimming.

✓ I prefer to do some activities like long walks or hiking or skiing or swimming.

'Long walk' should be plural 'long walks' to match the plural 'activities'. Also, 'a swimming' is incorrect because 'swimming' is an uncountable noun and does not need an article.
