× I think flower has good meanings and also has. Good looking and smells lovely.
✓ I think flowers have good meanings and also look good and smell lovely.
The noun 'flower' should be plural 'flowers' to match the plural verb 'have'. Also, 'has' is incorrect here; 'look' and 'smell' should be used to describe the flowers' appearance and scent. The sentence structure was fragmented and needed correction for clarity.
× One of my friends called Angela, she loves sunflowers so much because it's edible and also luxury, freedom.
✓ One of my friends called Angela loves sunflowers so much because they are edible and also represent luxury and freedom.
The pronoun 'it' is incorrect when referring to 'sunflowers' which is plural; 'they' should be used. Also, 'luxury' and 'freedom' need to be connected properly to the subject; 'represent' is added for clarity.
× Yes, just in the city I live in there's a park full of flowers and every spring there's lots of bees and the whole park is full of flower smells.
✓ Yes, just in the city I live in there's a park full of flowers and every spring there are lots of bees and the whole park is full of flower smells.
The phrase 'there's lots of bees' is incorrect because 'lots of bees' is plural; the correct form is 'there are lots of bees' to agree in number.
× It's like a ocean of colorful flowers.
✓ It's like an ocean of colourful flowers.
The article 'a' should be 'an' before a vowel sound as in 'ocean'. Also, 'colourful' is the British English spelling, which fits the instruction to use English (United Kingdom).
× Yes, I do take photos of flowers in my daily life.
✓ Yes, I take photos of flowers in my daily life.
The auxiliary 'do' is unnecessary here for affirmative statements; 'I take photos' is the correct simple present tense form.
× Well when I was young I thought that's what only old people do.
✓ Well, when I was young, I thought that was something only old people did.
The sentence needed commas for clarity. Also, 'that's what only old people do' is incorrect tense and structure; it should be past tense 'was something only old people did' to match 'when I was young'.
× Yes, we send photos to each other and we also give gifts It there's lots of meanings in all flowers in our country and beliefs and also we have country flowers and sometimes it's a good meaning and in flowers.
✓ Yes, we send flowers to each other and we also give gifts. There are lots of meanings in all flowers in our country and beliefs, and we also have national flowers which sometimes have good meanings.
The original sentence had 'send photos' instead of 'send flowers', which is likely a mistake. 'It there's' is incorrect; it should be 'There are' for plural 'meanings'. The sentence was fragmented and unclear, so it was restructured for clarity and grammatical correctness.
