Chatting— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Faut que tu évites les hésitations pis les répétitions. Essaie de faire des phrases plus courtes pis claires, pis utilise des mots justes sans erreurs. Par exemple, dis "I love chatting with my friends" au lieu de "I love to have a chatting". Aussi, évite de répéter "uh" trop souvent.

Example: Yes, I love chatting with my friends. Since we are busy on weekdays, we usually talk through apps like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Snapchat during the weekends.

Suggestion: Faut que tu sois plus précis pis que tu évites les erreurs grammaticales. Par exemple, "bell wing" n'est pas correct, peut-être tu voulais dire "well-being". Aussi, organise tes idées avec des mots de liaison pour que ça soit plus fluide.

Example: I usually chat about various topics like how we are feeling, what happened during the day, our families, careers, studies, and work opportunities. It really depends on the situation.

Suggestion: Essaie de faire des phrases plus naturelles et évite les expressions comme "more messed up" qui ne sont pas très formelles. Aussi, utilise des mots de liaison pour connecter tes idées, par exemple "because" ou "so".

Example: I prefer chatting with my best friend, Ria, because I can share personal things with her. Talking in a group can be confusing sometimes, so I like one-on-one conversations better.

Suggestion: Faut que tu corriges les erreurs grammaticales et évites les répétitions comme "to to". Aussi, organise mieux tes phrases pour que ce soit plus clair et naturel.

Example: I definitely prefer face-to-face meetings. However, since everyone is busy, including me, I sometimes use social media apps like WhatsApp to call my friends. But whenever I have free time, I prefer to meet them in person.

Suggestion: Essaie d'éviter les hésitations comme "uh" et les phrases un peu maladroites. Sois plus direct et utilise des phrases simples et claires pour exprimer tes idées.

Example: I don't like arguing with anyone, including my friends. I am patient, and if a situation might cause an argument, I calmly explain my point of view instead of arguing.

× I love to have a chatting with my friends.

✓ I love to have a chat with my friends.

The word 'chatting' is a gerund and cannot be used with the indefinite article 'a'. Instead, the noun 'chat' should be used here to express a conversation. So, 'a chatting' is incorrect; it should be 'a chat'.

× usually my friends uh, works on weekdays and off on weekends

✓ usually my friends uh, work on weekdays and are off on weekends

The subject 'my friends' is plural, so the verb should be 'work' instead of 'works'. Also, 'off on weekends' needs a verb to be grammatically correct, so 'are off on weekends' is appropriate.

× in weekdays we cannot meet each other.

✓ on weekdays we cannot meet each other.

The correct preposition to use with days or parts of the week is 'on', not 'in'. Therefore, it should be 'on weekdays'.

× we usually chat on the different kinds of apps the such as WhatsApp, Instagram and Snapchat.

✓ we usually chat on different kinds of apps such as WhatsApp, Instagram and Snapchat.

The phrase 'the different kinds of apps the such as' is incorrect. The article 'the' before 'different kinds' is unnecessary here, and 'the such as' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'different kinds of apps such as'.

× There is no any specific topic that I chat with my friends.

✓ There is no specific topic that I chat about with my friends.

The phrase 'no any' is incorrect; 'no' or 'any' should be used alone. Also, 'chat' is usually followed by 'about' when referring to topics. So, the correct sentence is 'There is no specific topic that I chat about with my friends.'

× It's just about, uh, their, uh, bell wing, whatever happened with me on the day or how's their families going?

✓ It's just about, uh, their well-being, whatever happened to me during the day or how their families are doing.

The word 'bell wing' is a mispronunciation or misspelling of 'well-being'. Also, 'whatever happened with me on the day' should be 'whatever happened to me during the day'. 'How's their families going?' should be 'how their families are doing' for correct grammar and clarity.

× I ask them about their carriers family, umm, and uh, their studies and work opportunities.

✓ I ask them about their careers, family, studies, and work opportunities.

The phrase 'carriers family' is incorrect; it should be 'careers, family'. Also, the list should be separated properly with commas for clarity.

× I only have a few friends in which I have a one best friend.

✓ I only have a few friends, and I have one best friend.

The phrase 'a one best friend' is incorrect because 'one' already indicates singularity, so 'a' is unnecessary. Also, the sentence structure is improved by separating the ideas with 'and'.

× I want to discuss all of my life things going on with her.

✓ I want to discuss all the things going on in my life with her.

The phrase 'all of my life things going on' is awkward and incorrect. The correct phrase is 'all the things going on in my life'.

× Rather than talking with a group of people.

✓ Rather than talking with a group of people,

This is a sentence fragment lacking a main verb or connection to the previous sentence. It should be connected to the previous sentence with a comma to complete the thought.

× I think it will be more messed up with the group of people.

✓ I think it will be more confusing with a group of people.

The phrase 'more messed up' is informal and unclear in this context. 'More confusing' is a clearer and more appropriate adjective to describe the situation.

× Definitely I prefer face to face meeting.

✓ Definitely, I prefer face-to-face meetings.

'Face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as an adjective. Also, 'meeting' should be plural 'meetings' to generalize the preference.

× I work short of hours per day the whole week.

✓ I work a short number of hours per day throughout the whole week.

The phrase 'work short of hours' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'work a short number of hours'. Also, 'the whole week' is better expressed as 'throughout the whole week'.

× I have to use social media apps such as WhatsApp to to call with my friends.

✓ I have to use social media apps such as WhatsApp to call my friends.

The phrase 'to call with my friends' is incorrect. The correct form is 'to call my friends'. Also, there is a repeated 'to' which should be removed.

× But I prefer face to face meeting whenever we I have off to meet.

✓ But I prefer face-to-face meetings whenever I have time off to meet.

'Face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face'. The phrase 'whenever we I have off to meet' is incorrect; it should be 'whenever I have time off to meet'.

× I don't like arguing with any of a person in my life, so I don't like to argue with my friends.

✓ I don't like arguing with any person in my life, so I don't like to argue with my friends.

The phrase 'any of a person' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'any person'.

× Also, I always have patience.

✓ Also, I am always patient.

'Have patience' is correct but less natural here. Using the adjective 'patient' with 'am always' is more natural in this context.

× If there is any situation that it will lead to, uh, arguments with my friends, I will uh, calmly tell my friends the situation about it, but I don't argue with them.

✓ If there is any situation that might lead to arguments with my friends, I calmly explain the situation to them, but I don't argue with them.

The original sentence is awkward and contains unnecessary words like 'it will lead to' and 'the situation about it'. The corrected sentence is clearer and more concise.
