× Umm I won't say that I am big fan of chocolate and I mean I can eat it but it will be OK if umm I want a eat chocolate at all because I'm not the uh sweet tooth person so.
✓ Umm I won't say that I am a big fan of chocolate and I mean I can eat it but it will be OK if umm I don't want to eat chocolate at all because I'm not the uh sweet tooth person so.
The modal verb 'won't' is incorrectly used here; the sentence intends to express a negative preference, so 'don't want to eat' is appropriate. Also, 'a' is missing before 'big fan' which is an article error (ID 22). The phrase 'want a eat' is incorrect; it should be 'want to eat' to correctly use the infinitive form after 'want'.
× Umm I won't say that I am big fan of chocolate and I mean I can eat it but it will be OK if umm I want a eat chocolate at all because I'm not the uh sweet tooth person so.
✓ Umm I won't say that I am a big fan of chocolate and I mean I can eat it but it will be OK if umm I don't want to eat chocolate at all because I'm not the uh sweet tooth person so.
The phrase 'I am big fan' is missing the indefinite article 'a' before 'big fan'. In English, singular countable nouns require an article. This is an article error (ID 22).
× If I'm happy, I can eat chocolate. In uh. Large portions, but if I'm in a bad mood and I don't want to talk with anyone, I don't eat chocolate at all, but I'm OK.
✓ If I'm happy, I can eat chocolate in large portions, but if I'm in a bad mood and I don't want to talk with anyone, I don't eat chocolate at all, but I'm OK.
The phrase 'In uh. Large portions' is fragmented and incorrectly capitalised. It should be combined into the previous sentence as 'in large portions' to correctly use the preposition and maintain sentence flow. This is an incorrect use of prepositions (ID 11) and sentence structure error (ID 26).
× Definitely yes. I ate a lot of chocolate while I was a kid because and umm. Everyone could see that I ate a lot of chocolate because I had, uh, problems with my teeth after this.
✓ Definitely yes. I ate a lot of chocolate while I was a kid because, umm, everyone could see that I ate a lot of chocolate and I had, uh, problems with my teeth after that.
The phrase 'because and umm.' is fragmented and incorrect; 'because' should be followed by a clause, not 'and'. Also, 'after this' is better expressed as 'after that' to refer to a past event. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26) and incorrect use of conjunctions (ID 16).
× I think that chocolate is popular around the world because of its taste, umm, because it's giving like the good Swedish taste and it's really delicious.
✓ I think that chocolate is popular around the world because of its taste, umm, because it gives a good sweet taste and it's really delicious.
The phrase 'it's giving like the good Swedish taste' is incorrect. 'Giving' should be 'gives' (present tense), and 'Swedish' is likely a mishearing or typo for 'sweet'. Also, 'like' is unnecessary here. This is a present tense issue (ID 6) and incorrect use of adjectives (ID 13).
× So yeah, everyone just likes them, umm, especially children.
✓ So yeah, everyone just likes it, umm, especially children.
The pronoun 'them' is incorrectly used to refer to 'chocolate', which is uncountable and singular in this context. The correct pronoun is 'it'. This is an incorrect use of pronouns (ID 12) and singular/plural issue (ID 1).
× My favorite flavor of chocolate is milk chocolate because it has a, umm, very great taste.
✓ My favorite flavor of chocolate is milk chocolate because it has a very good taste.
The phrase 'very great taste' is awkward; 'great' is an absolute adjective and does not usually combine with 'very'. 'Very good' is more natural. This is an incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs (ID 13).
× And umm, personally speaking, the dark chocolate is too. Too much of chocolate and umm, the white chocolate. I just don't.
✓ And umm, personally speaking, dark chocolate is too strong for me, and umm, white chocolate, I just don't like it.
The original sentence is fragmented and incomplete. 'Too much of chocolate' is incorrect; it should specify what is 'too much' about dark chocolate. Also, 'the white chocolate. I just don't.' is incomplete. This is a sentence structure error (ID 26).
× So if you don't know what to give for a person as a gift, uh, you can just buy chocolate and give them and he'll probably like it.
✓ So if you don't know what to give a person as a gift, uh, you can just buy chocolate and give it to them and they'll probably like it.
The pronoun 'them' is used incorrectly as the object of 'give'; 'give it to them' is correct because 'chocolate' is the object being given. Also, 'he'll' assumes gender; 'they'll' is more appropriate. This is an incorrect use of pronouns (ID 12).
× So if you don't know what to give for a person as a gift, uh, you can just buy chocolate and give them and he'll probably like it.
✓ So if you don't know what to give a person as a gift, uh, you can just buy chocolate and give it to them and they'll probably like it.
The preposition 'for' is incorrectly used after 'give'; the correct phrase is 'give a person' without 'for'. Also, 'give them' is incomplete; it should be 'give it to them'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions (ID 11).
