× My hometown is located in Uzbekistan at Angul is pretty small city, but due to many cars our city is very crowded. Also my city.

✓ My hometown is located in Angul, Uzbekistan. It is a pretty small city, but due to many cars, our city is very crowded.

The original sentence is a run-on sentence lacking proper punctuation and conjunctions, causing confusion. Splitting it into two sentences and adding commas improves clarity and grammatical correctness.

× Honestly I don't like anything about my hometown because there's no places to hang out with friends on, just two or three normal cafes and that's all.

✓ Honestly, I don't like anything about my hometown because there are no places to hang out with friends, just two or three normal cafes and that's all.

The phrase 'there's no places' is incorrect because 'places' is plural and requires 'there are'. Also, the preposition 'on' is unnecessary and incorrect in this context.

× Also, uh, pedestrian areas is not that good.

✓ Also, uh, pedestrian areas are not that good.

The subject 'pedestrian areas' is plural, so the verb should be 'are' instead of 'is' to agree in number.

× You can't walk there. Not good conditions to cycle or just to walk.

✓ You can't walk there. There are not good conditions for cycling or just walking.

The phrase 'conditions to cycle or just to walk' is awkward. Using 'conditions for cycling or just walking' is more natural and grammatically correct.

× I've been living here from my childhood, I have many friends and I know my city very well.

✓ I've been living here since my childhood. I have many friends and I know my city very well.

The preposition 'from' is incorrect with 'childhood' in this context; 'since' is the correct preposition to indicate the starting point of an action continuing to the present.

× I knew, I know many places and I've been everywhere in the city, with my friends especially.

✓ I know many places and I've been everywhere in the city, especially with my friends.

The use of 'I knew' is incorrect here because the speaker is referring to current knowledge. Also, the sentence is clearer when 'especially with my friends' is placed at the end.

× Umm honestly no because there is no good conditions to walk or cycle.

✓ Umm, honestly no, because there are no good conditions for walking or cycling.

'There is no good conditions' is incorrect because 'conditions' is plural and requires 'there are'. Also, 'conditions to walk or cycle' should be 'conditions for walking or cycling' for correct prepositional use.

× Umm also just there is no places to hang out with your friends also.

✓ Umm, also, there are no places to hang out with your friends.

'There is no places' is incorrect; it should be 'there are no places' because 'places' is plural. The word 'also' is redundant at the end and can be omitted for clarity.
