× I had a bike when I was a child because I want to ride my bike with my father.
✓ I had a bike when I was a child because I wanted to ride my bike with my father.
The sentence mixes past tense ('had') with present tense ('want'). Use past tense throughout to maintain consistent time reference. Change 'want' to 'wanted'. Also consider using 'to ride my bike with my father' is fine. Suggestion: keep verbs in the same time frame when referring to past events.
× It was a good memory to me.
✓ It was a good memory for me.
The phrase 'memory to me' is unnatural in English. Use the preposition 'for' with 'memory' to indicate who experienced it: 'a good memory for me.' Alternatively, use 'I have good memories of it.' Maintain past reference if describing childhood.
× Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, especially Salt or in Salt or Korea.
✓ Yes, I think bikes are popular in my country, especially in Salt or in Korea.
The original repeats 'in Salt or' and misplaces prepositions. Use 'especially in Salt or in Korea' to list places correctly. Ensure preposition 'in' precedes each location or is placed before the list: 'especially in Salt or Korea.'
× There are so many traffic congestion nowadays, so everyone has their own bike to go to their work.
✓ There is so much traffic congestion nowadays, so many people have their own bikes to go to work.
'Traffic congestion' is an uncountable noun, so use 'is' (singular) and 'so much' rather than 'so many.' Also 'everyone has their own bike' is acceptable, but 'many people have their own bikes' is more natural. Use plural 'bikes' when referring to individuals owning bikes, and use 'go to work' without 'their' for natural phrasing. Maintain present tense for current situation.
