Grammar

Present tense issue

× I don't often go to the library because I'm I'm not a big fan of a physical book because I think it's quite heavy.

I don't often go to the library because I'm not a big fan of physical books since I think they are quite heavy.

The sentence incorrectly uses 'a physical book' when referring to books in general. Since the speaker talks about books in general, the plural form 'physical books' is appropriate. Also, 'because' is repeated unnecessarily. Using 'since' improves sentence flow.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I usually do my projects in library because umm there is very limited space at home so I would like to go to somewhere quiet and bake to allow me to have a space to work.

I usually do my projects in the library because there is very limited space at home, so I like to go somewhere quiet and back to allow me to have a space to work.

The phrase 'in library' is missing the definite article 'the'. Also, 'go to somewhere' is incorrect; it should be 'go somewhere'. The word 'bake' seems to be a typo or misused word; possibly 'back' or another word was intended. The sentence needs clearer wording for better understanding.

There be issue

× Yes, I love going to the library when I was a kid because there is not much leisure when I was young.

Yes, I loved going to the library when I was a kid because there was not much leisure when I was young.

The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the time frame is in the past ('when I was a kid'), the verb 'is' should be changed to 'was' to maintain tense consistency.

Singular and plural issue

× Umm, I also enjoy reading the comic books and they we can also enjoy free air conditioner there.

Umm, I also enjoyed reading comic books, and we could also enjoy free air conditioning there.

'The comic books' is incorrect; 'comic books' without 'the' is more natural when speaking generally. 'They we can' is a mistake; it should be 'we could' to match past tense. 'Air conditioner' should be 'air conditioning' to refer to the system, not the device.

Singular and plural issue

× I think Chinese kids quite often go to the library because, you know, nowadays it's very competitive for them to know a lot of things and read thousands of books.

I think Chinese kids quite often go to the library because, you know, nowadays it's very competitive for them to learn a lot of things and read thousands of books.

The phrase 'know a lot of things' is awkward; 'learn a lot of things' is more appropriate when referring to acquiring knowledge. The rest of the sentence is correct.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× So, umm, many parents like bringing their child to library to learn more.

So, umm, many parents like bringing their children to the library to learn more.

'To library' is missing the definite article 'the'. Also, 'child' should be plural 'children' to match the general statement about many parents.
