× Those twos are my main favorite music type.
✓ Those two are my main favorite music types.
The word 'twos' is incorrect; the plural of 'two' is 'two' when referring to items, and 'music type' should be plural as 'music types' because it refers to more than one genre.
× Whenever we gathered with friends go to karaoke.
✓ Whenever we gather with friends, we go to karaoke.
The sentence lacks proper verb tense consistency and structure. 'Gathered' should be present tense 'gather' to match habitual action, and the sentence needs a subject for 'go to karaoke' and a comma for clarity.
× No, I have never learned before, but if I could have an opportunity to learn, I would love to.
✓ No, I have never learned before, but if I had an opportunity to learn, I would love to.
The conditional clause requires past tense 'had' to express a hypothetical situation, not 'could have' which is incorrect here.
× The same for me, singing is be one of just my hobbies and to be honest I don't want to be heard for anyone.
✓ The same for me, singing is one of my hobbies and to be honest I don't want to be heard by anyone.
'Is be' is incorrect; it should be 'is'. 'Just' is misplaced and unnecessary. Also, 'heard for anyone' should be 'heard by anyone' to use the correct preposition.
× Yes I do. I believe singing makes bad sad things forget.
✓ Yes, I do. I believe singing makes us forget bad and sad things.
The original sentence lacks a subject for 'forget' and the adjective order is incorrect. Adding 'us' clarifies who forgets, and 'bad and sad things' is the correct adjective order.
× And by singing I can, we can forget the bad things.
✓ By singing, I can forget bad things; we can forget bad things.
The sentence is awkward and unclear. Separating the ideas and adding commas improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
