Names— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer is generally clear but can be more natural and concise. Avoid repeating words unnecessarily and try to link your ideas smoothly. For example, instead of saying "It's a flower and it is known as Kamal in our country," you can say "Kamal means lotus, a flower commonly known by this name in our country."

Example: My name is a combination of two words: Preet, which means love, and Kamal, which means lotus, a flower commonly known by this name in our country. This meaningful name was given to me by my aunt.

Suggestion: Try to avoid filler words like 'uh' and 'umm' to make your speech more fluent. Also, use linking words to connect your ideas clearly. For example, you can say, "I have decided to combine my name and my husband's name to create a unique name for our future children, which will symbolize our love."

Example: I have decided to combine my name and my husband's name to create a unique name for our future children, which will symbolize our love.

Suggestion: Your answer is a bit unclear and has grammatical errors. Try to structure your answer with a clear topic sentence and supporting details, and use linking words. For example, "No one in my family has exactly the same name as me, but my aunt named me, my sister, and my brother with 'Preet' as a common part of our names. For instance, my sister is Preet Kiran, my brother is Manroop Preet, and even my husband's name is Harpreet."

Example: No one in my family has exactly the same name as me, but my aunt named me, my sister, and my brother with 'Preet' as a common part of our names. For instance, my sister is Preet Kiran, my brother is Manroop Preet, and even my husband's name is Harpreet.

Suggestion: Avoid filler words and try to give a more structured and clear answer. Use linking words to compare past and present naming practices. For example, "I am not exactly sure about the past, but I believe that earlier generations named their children based on spontaneous ideas or suggestions from others. However, nowadays, parents usually decide the names themselves after careful consideration."

Example: I am not exactly sure about the past, but I believe that earlier generations named their children based on spontaneous ideas or suggestions from others. However, nowadays, parents usually decide the names themselves after careful consideration.

Suggestion: Your answer lacks clarity and has many filler words. Try to be more precise and use linking words to explain your point. For example, "As far as I know, 'Jiang' is a very common surname in China. For instance, a friend of mine named Chang Yu told me that many of his classmates share the surname Chang."

Example: As far as I know, 'Jiang' is a very common surname in China. For instance, a friend of mine named Chang Yu told me that many of his classmates share the surname Chang.

× It is a combination of 2 words Preet and Kamal.

✓ It is a combination of 2 words: Preet and Kamal.

The sentence needs a colon after 'words' to correctly introduce the list of words. This is a punctuation issue related to clarity, not strictly grammar, but it improves sentence structure.

× And this name was given to me my by my aunt.

✓ And this name was given to me by my aunt.

The phrase 'my by my aunt' contains an extra 'my' which is incorrect. The correct preposition is 'by' to indicate the agent who gave the name.

× I had decided uh, to give name to my future generation, uh, as a combination of my name and my husband name.

✓ I had decided to give a name to my future generation as a combination of my name and my husband's name.

The phrase 'give name' is missing the article 'a' before 'name'. Also, 'my husband name' should be 'my husband's name' to show possession.

× Not the same name but my aunt has given the names to me, my sister and brother so she had.

✓ Not the same name, but my aunt has given names to me, my sister, and brother.

The phrase 'given the names to me' is awkward; 'given names to me' is better. Also, 'so she had' is incomplete and unclear, so it is omitted for clarity.

× We have a pre common in all her names.

✓ We have a 'Preet' common in all her names.

The phrase 'a pre common' is unclear and likely a mishearing or typo. It should be 'a common element 'Preet' in all her names' to indicate the shared part.

× I think older generation, they used to give a name to their children whatever comes to their mind or even if they read somewhere or they could ask anyone, but now the the parents, they decide themselves.

✓ I think the older generation used to give names to their children whatever came to their mind or even if they read somewhere or asked anyone, but now the parents decide themselves.

'Older generation' needs the definite article 'the'. Also, 'whatever comes' should be past tense 'came' to match 'used to'. 'They could ask' is better as 'asked' for parallel past tense. 'The the parents' has a repeated article.

× I think Jiang is most common name in China because uh I had a friend and uh in my class and his name was Chang Yu and I asked him about this and he told me that most of uh his friends name was Chang in common.

✓ I think Jiang is the most common name in China because I had a friend in my class whose name was Chang Yu, and I asked him about this. He told me that most of his friends' names were Chang.

'Most common name' needs the definite article 'the'. 'His friends name' should be plural possessive 'friends' names'. Also, 'was Chang in common' is awkward; 'were Chang' is correct plural form. Sentence structure is improved for clarity.
