Example: Yes, bicycles are very popular in my country because they are affordable and convenient for short trips. For example, many people ride to work or the market, and I often see elderly people cycling in parks for exercise.
× I used to have a bike when I was child.
✓ I used to have a bike when I was a child.
The noun 'child' requires the indefinite article 'a' in this context because it is singular and unspecified. Add 'a' to form the correct phrase 'a child'. This sentence correctly uses the past habit form 'used to', so keep the tense. Suggestion: include articles with singular countable nouns (a/an/the) where appropriate.
× It's obviously popular in my country.
✓ They're obviously popular in my country.
The original sentence uses 'It's' (it is) to refer to 'bikes' from the question, but 'bikes' is plural, so the pronoun and verb must be plural: 'they're' (they are). Alternatively, you could say 'Bikes are obviously popular in my country.' Suggestion: make sure pronouns agree in number with their antecedents.
× People who lives in my country are like physical exercise and I even saw old people who ride on a bike.
✓ People who live in my country like physical exercise, and I even saw old people who ride bikes.
There are multiple errors: 'who lives' should be 'who live' to agree with plural subject 'people' (subject-verb agreement). The verb 'are like physical exercise' is incorrect; 'like' should be used without 'are' to mean 'enjoy' and must follow the plural subject: 'people ... like physical exercise.' Also 'ride on a bike' is unnatural; use 'ride bikes' or 'ride a bike.' Keep consistent plural/singular: 'old people who ride bikes.' Suggestions: match verb forms to plural subjects, use 'like' (not 'are like') for preferences, and prefer 'ride bikes' for general statements.
