× I live in the Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh.
✓ I live in Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh.
In English, we do not use 'the' before city names unless the name includes a common noun like 'city' as part of the name. Here, 'Dhaka city' is a proper noun, so 'the' is unnecessary.
× In here the weather in summer is pretty quite hot, and during winter it's not like freezing, but not less than freezing cold we have.
✓ Here, the weather in summer is quite hot, and during winter it's not freezing, but we do have cold weather that is close to freezing.
The phrase 'pretty quite hot' is redundant; 'quite hot' suffices. 'Not like freezing' is incorrect; it should be 'not freezing'. The sentence structure is awkward and needs rephrasing for clarity.
× Actually I prefer cold rather than hot weather because in summer their temperature reach in very high and when the extreme heat days are started to begin I sweat a lot.
✓ Actually, I prefer cold rather than hot weather because in summer the temperature reaches very high, and when the extreme heat days start, I sweat a lot.
'Their' is incorrect here; it should be 'the' referring to temperature. 'Reach in very high' is incorrect; correct form is 'reaches very high'. Also, verb tense and subject-verb agreement need correction.
× My full body looks like messy so I prefer cold weather.
✓ My whole body feels messy, so I prefer cold weather.
'Full body' is unnatural; 'whole body' is better. 'Looks like messy' is incorrect; 'feels messy' or 'feels uncomfortable' is more appropriate.
× I definitely go for wet weather in dry dried all and everything, but in wet weather the sound of rain helps me remain calm and it excites me and motivated me to do my work with more enthusiasm so I love it, especially rainy days.
✓ I definitely prefer wet weather because in dry weather everything becomes dry and dull, but the sound of rain helps me remain calm and excites and motivates me to work with more enthusiasm, so I love it, especially on rainy days.
'Go for wet weather in dry dried all and everything' is unclear and incorrect. 'Motivated me' should be 'motivates me' to maintain present tense. Sentence structure needs improvement for clarity.
× Actually, I'm not habitat of checking the weather forecast, but if I have to move in different cities, then I definitely check the weather forecast.
✓ Actually, I'm not in the habit of checking the weather forecast, but if I have to travel to different cities, then I definitely check the weather forecast.
'Habitat' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'in the habit of'. 'Move in different cities' should be 'travel to different cities'.
× Or if I have to plan uh for visiting somewhere or going out with my friends, then I check for weather forecast.
✓ Or if I have to plan to visit somewhere or go out with my friends, then I check the weather forecast.
'Plan uh for visiting' is incorrect; it should be 'plan to visit'. Also, 'check for weather forecast' should be 'check the weather forecast'.
× Actually when I need then just I check it.
✓ Actually, when I need to, I just check it.
The sentence structure is awkward. Adding 'to' after 'need' and rearranging the sentence improves clarity.
× In few years earlier there was not extreme heat so neither extreme cold in Bangladesh.
✓ A few years ago, there was neither extreme heat nor extreme cold in Bangladesh.
'In few years earlier' is incorrect; 'A few years ago' is correct. Also, 'neither...so neither' is incorrect; it should be 'neither...nor'.
× But recent years the effect of climate change we can see during the summer and winter both season In summer we can see active heat and temperature goes very high and winter it's becoming freezing cold like.
✓ But in recent years, we can see the effects of climate change during both summer and winter seasons. In summer, the heat is intense and temperatures go very high, and in winter, it is becoming freezing cold.
Sentence structure is awkward and prepositions are missing. 'Active heat' is unnatural; 'intense heat' is better. 'Freezing cold like' is incorrect; 'becoming freezing cold' suffices.
× Yes, definitely. I would love to visit other cities that have different climates from the city I live.
✓ Yes, definitely. I would love to visit other cities that have different climates from the city I live in.
The preposition 'in' is missing at the end of the sentence after 'live' to complete the phrase 'live in'.
× Especially if the cities have snow flowing, I would love to visit there.
✓ Especially if the cities have snow falling, I would love to visit there.
'Snow flowing' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'snow falling'. This is a vocabulary issue but relates to correct verb usage.
× I have never experienced such things in my lifetime, so I would definitely go for the cities where the weather are different from the current city I am living.
✓ I have never experienced such things in my lifetime, so I would definitely go to cities where the weather is different from the current city I am living in.
'Weather are' is incorrect; 'weather' is singular and should be paired with 'is'. Also, 'go for the cities' should be 'go to cities'. The preposition 'in' is needed after 'living'.
