× Yes of course because Thursday is the only one day in a in a year so it's very special day and the 1st birthday people person should be celebrated by others friends.
✓ Yes, of course, because a birthday is the only special day in a year, so it's a very special day and the first birthday person should be celebrated by other friends.
The original sentence incorrectly uses 'Thursday' instead of 'birthday' and has tense and article errors. 'Thursday' is a specific weekday and does not fit the context. The phrase 'the only one day in a in a year' is awkward and incorrect; it should be 'a birthday is the only special day in a year'. Also, 'others friends' should be 'other friends' as 'other' is the correct determiner here. The sentence needs commas for clarity. The correction aligns the sentence with proper past tense and article usage.

✓ Yes, of course, because a birthday is the only special day in a year, so it's a very special day and the first birthday person should be celebrated by other friends.
The phrase 'the only one day' is incorrect; 'only' already implies singularity, so 'one' is redundant. Also, 'very special day' needs the article 'a' before it. The correction improves adjective usage and article placement for clarity and grammatical correctness.
