× I have a best friend, she name is Lily.
✓ I have a best friend, her name is Lily.
The pronoun 'she' is incorrectly used here; it should be 'her' to correctly refer to the possessive form before 'name'. This is a singular and plural issue related to pronoun usage.
× Now we still be best friends and we always go out to eat something together.
✓ Now we are still best friends and we always go out to eat something together.
The verb 'be' should be in the present tense 'are' to agree with the subject 'we' and the present time context.
× When I back to my hometown the first person I always go to meet is her.
✓ When I go back to my hometown, the first person I always go to meet is her.
The verb 'back' is missing the auxiliary verb 'go' to form the correct present tense expression 'go back'. The sentence refers to habitual action, so present tense is appropriate.
× She is a person who know me a lot.
✓ She is a person who knows me a lot.
The verb 'know' should be in third person singular present tense 'knows' to agree with the singular subject 'who' referring to 'she'.
× I always hanging out to eat something with my friends and we always spend time together to talk about the future.
✓ I am always hanging out to eat something with my friends and we always spend time together talking about the future.
The verb 'hanging' needs an auxiliary verb 'am' to form the present continuous tense. Also, 'to talk' should be changed to 'talking' to correctly follow 'spend time'.
× Sometime when I have a problem I always tell her she always help me to solve that old problem.
✓ Sometimes when I have a problem, I always tell her; she always helps me to solve that old problem.
'Sometime' should be 'Sometimes' to indicate frequency. Also, 'help' should be 'helps' to agree with third person singular subject 'she'.
× We always go to the place where we are really memorable place is the river near our home because the place we meet each other from the childhood and now we still go to there to review our past.
✓ We always go to a place that is really memorable; it is the river near our home because it is the place where we met each other since childhood and now we still go there to recall our past.
The sentence has multiple issues: 'place' should be singular and properly introduced with 'a'; 'meet' should be past tense 'met'; 'to there' is incorrect preposition usage; 'review' is better replaced with 'recall' for memory context.
× Sometime I go out with my friends because we rarely meet each other because I'm I'm plumping and see at Kampung Jam we live far away from each other that's why we really free time to meet each other.
✓ Sometimes I go out with my friends because we rarely meet each other since I am working and living in Kampung Jam; we live far away from each other, so we rarely have free time to meet each other.
'Sometime' should be 'Sometimes'; 'I'm plumping and see' is unclear and likely meant 'I am working and living'; 'really free time' should be 'rarely have free time' for correct quantifier and verb usage.
× But when I go back to my hometown I already meet her.
✓ But when I go back to my hometown, I always meet her.
'Already meet' is incorrect in this context; 'always meet' fits habitual action in present tense. 'Go back' is present tense, so the following verb should match.
× The important is having a friend who always by our side is really important because sometimes no one know about us.
✓ The important thing is having a friend who is always by our side because sometimes no one knows about us.
'The important' should be 'The important thing'; 'who always by our side' lacks verb 'is'; 'no one know' should be 'no one knows' for subject-verb agreement.
× We need someone to improves or to live our motivation.
✓ We need someone to improve or to give us motivation.
'Improves' is incorrect after 'to'; the base form 'improve' is needed. 'To live our motivation' is incorrect; 'to give us motivation' is clearer.
× I would prefer to spend time with one friends because I like quit.
✓ I would prefer to spend time with one friend because I like quiet.
'One friends' is incorrect; 'friend' should be singular. 'Quit' is a verb; the adjective 'quiet' is correct here.
× I want Peace of Mind and when I spend time with one friend I think I'm really youthful.
✓ I want peace of mind, and when I spend time with one friend, I think I feel really youthful.
'Peace of Mind' should be lowercase unless a title; adding 'feel' clarifies the state; commas improve sentence flow.
× I have a volleyball but sometime I used to prefer group of friends.
✓ I have a volleyball, but sometimes I used to prefer groups of friends.
'Sometime' should be 'sometimes'; 'group of friends' should be plural 'groups of friends' to indicate multiple groups.
× Yes I would invite my friend to home because I trust her.
✓ Yes, I would invite my friend to my home because I trust her.
'To home' is incorrect; it should be 'to my home' to specify possession.
× No one can change my mind from her, no one can change my belief on her because she know a lot a lot from me and she never judge me, she always stayed by myself.
✓ No one can change my mind about her; no one can change my belief in her because she knows a lot about me and she never judges me; she always stays by my side.
'From her' should be 'about her'; 'belief on her' should be 'belief in her'; 'she know' should be 'she knows'; 'judge' should be 'judges'; 'stayed by myself' is incorrect, should be 'stays by my side'.
× It had a lot of difference because now we are meet each other at a coffee shop and the past we meet each other at the school or to barcode that like that and because now we don't have free time enough.
✓ There is a lot of difference because now we meet each other at a coffee shop, but in the past we met each other at school or other places like that, and now we don't have enough free time.
'It had a lot of difference' should be 'There is a lot of difference'; 'are meet' should be 'meet'; 'the past' should be 'in the past'; 'meet' should be past tense 'met'; 'to barcode that like that' is unclear and replaced with 'other places like that'; 'free time enough' should be 'enough free time'.
× Uh, in my opinion, I think the place, not just the place where we are going to meet each other, but there is the memorable place that we spend together and we go there with the memory and we can spend with your smile and happiness, feel peace and quit.
✓ Uh, in my opinion, I think the place is not just where we meet each other, but a memorable place where we spend time together; we go there with memories and can share smiles and happiness, feeling peace and quiet.
The sentence has preposition misuse: 'spend with your smile' should be 'share smiles'; 'feel peace and quit' should be 'feeling peace and quiet'; sentence structure improved for clarity.
