Flowers— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Make small grammar corrections and slightly expand with one clear supporting detail. Use a topic sentence, then one linked reason. Keep within 3–4 sentences and avoid repetition.

Ejemplo: Yes, I do. Flowers are beautiful and make me feel relaxed, especially sunflowers because their large yellow heads look bright and cheerful. For example, seeing them in a field always lifts my mood.

Sugerencia: Correct verb forms and word choice, and make the sequence clearer with a linking word. Use one topic sentence and one or two supporting details with specific example.

Ejemplo: Yes, my mother loves flowers and spends a lot of time in her small garden. Because she waters and prunes them every evening, it helps her relax after work and keeps the plants healthy.

Sugerencia: Fix the contradiction and improve coherence: start with a clear topic sentence, then give contrasting detail using a linking word. Use accurate quantifiers and plural/singular forms.

Ejemplo: Not many, since I live in a condominium with very little garden space. However, I can still see flowers in nearby parks and outside some cafes when I walk around.

Sugerencia: Correct word choice and vocabulary (e.g. 'still' and 'boom' are incorrect). Use a clear topic sentence, then add a linked example. Keep sentences concise and natural.

Ejemplo: Not very often. I usually photograph people or food, but if I see a particularly beautiful bloom I will take a picture and share it on social media.

Sugerencia: Fix small grammar and word order errors. Provide one specific example of an occasion and explain briefly why flowers are given, using linking words for clarity.

Ejemplo: Yes, they do. In Thailand people often send flowers on special occasions like graduations and Valentine's Day because flowers are seen as a simple and respectful way to show love and appreciation.

× My favorite flower are sunflowers because they look bright and cheerful.

✓ My favorite flower is the sunflower because it looks bright and cheerful.

The subject is 'My favorite flower' (singular) so the verb must be singular 'is' (Grammar problem type ID 27). Also 'sunflowers' as a general category should be expressed as 'the sunflower' or 'sunflowers are my favorite' to match number. Suggestion: decide singular or plural; if singular, use 'is the sunflower' and change subsequent pronoun to 'it'; if plural, write 'My favorite flowers are sunflowers'.

× Yes, my mother love flowers.

✓ Yes, my mother loves flowers.

The subject 'my mother' is third person singular, so the verb needs the -s form 'loves' (Grammar problem type ID 27). Suggestion: for he/she/it subjects in present simple, add -s to the verb.

× She enjoys going flowers in her garden and spend a lot of time taking care of them.

✓ She enjoys growing flowers in her garden and spends a lot of time taking care of them.

Two issues: 'going flowers' is incorrect; the intended verb is 'growing' (verb + -ing form, type ID 8 and preposition misuse ID 11). Also 'spend' must agree with third person singular subject 'she', so use 'spends' (subject-verb agreement ID 27). Suggestion: use 'growing flowers' to mean cultivating, and ensure verbs agree with subject and that gerunds follow 'enjoys'.

× I live in a condominium with little garden space so there are many flowers nearby.

✓ I live in a condominium with little garden space so there are not many flowers nearby.

'Little garden space' implies few nearby flowers, so saying 'there are many flowers nearby' contradicts that and is likely a misuse of quantifier (Grammar problem type ID 14). Also if you keep 'little garden space' you should use 'not many' or 'few' for nearby flowers. Suggestion: choose consistent quantifiers: 'not many' or 'few'.

× However, I can still see flowers in parks and some cafe.

✓ However, I can still see flowers in parks and some cafes.

'Some cafe' is incorrect: 'cafe' should be plural 'cafes' to match 'parks' and 'some' (Grammar problem type ID 22 and 18). Suggestion: use 'some cafes' or 'a cafe' depending on meaning.

× I usually take photos of people or food in still.

✓ I usually take photos of people or food still.

The phrase 'in still' is incorrect. If the student means 'still' as an adverb (not moving), placing 'still' after the object works: 'take photos ... still' or better 'take still photos of people or food' (adjective order, ID 18/20). Suggestion: say 'take still photos' or 'take photos of people or food' and omit 'in'.

× However, when I see a particularly beautiful boom, I'll take a picture and put it on social media.

✓ However, when I see a particularly beautiful bloom, I'll take a picture and put it on social media.

The word 'boom' is a spelling error; the correct noun is 'bloom' (a flower). This is a vocabulary/word choice error related to nouns (Grammar problem type ID 13). Suggestion: use 'bloom' for a flower in blossom.

× In Thailand, people obtain send flowers on special occasions such as Buddhist graduation and Valentine's Day.

✓ In Thailand, people often send flowers on special occasions such as Buddhist funerals and Valentine's Day.

The phrase 'obtain send' is incorrect — likely an extra word 'obtain' was mistakenly inserted; remove it and use 'often send' to indicate frequency (modal/usage ID 4 and verb form ID 26). Also 'Buddhist graduation' is uncommon; if meaning funerals, use 'Buddhist funerals' or if meaning 'ordination' or 'graduation ceremonies', specify correctly. Suggestion: remove 'obtain' and choose the correct occasion term (e.g., 'Buddhist funerals' or 'ordination').
