× I do like chat, chatting with friends especially when they have extra time talking to them makes my heart happy since I miss them so much and I love hearing their stories.
✓ I do like chatting with friends, especially when they have extra time. Talking to them makes my heart happy since I miss them so much and I love hearing their stories.
The phrase 'I do like chat, chatting' is incorrect because 'chat' should be in the gerund form 'chatting' to function as a noun. Also, the sentence was run-on and needed to be split for clarity.
× Personal experience, especially the back home.
✓ Personal experience, especially back home.
The phrase 'the back home' is incorrect because 'back home' does not require the definite article 'the'. Removing 'the' makes the phrase correct.
× At this age, we usually talk about our careers, what are their currently doing in their job, their job position in their role.
✓ At this age, we usually talk about our careers, what they are currently doing in their jobs, and their job positions or roles.
The original sentence has incorrect word order ('what are their currently doing') and awkward phrasing. Correcting the word order and adding conjunctions improves clarity and grammar.
× They would share their personal experience on how they handle their boss, the work itself and the people around them.
✓ They would share their personal experiences about how they handle their boss, the work itself, and the people around them.
The phrase 'personal experience on' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'about'. Also, 'experience' should be plural to match the context.
× Also, they would also share what a hobby that they're doing.
✓ Also, they would share what hobbies they are doing.
The phrase 'what a hobby that they're doing' is incorrect. 'Hobby' should be plural 'hobbies' and the sentence simplified for clarity.
× I prefer talking to just one friend because I feel more connected with her or his if we just talk individually.
✓ I prefer talking to just one friend because I feel more connected with her or him if we just talk individually.
The pronoun 'his' is incorrect here; it should be 'him' to match the object form after the preposition 'with'.
× I do sometimes talk with group of friends but sometimes it's not serious.
✓ I do sometimes talk with a group of friends, but sometimes it's not serious.
The phrase 'with group of friends' is missing the article 'a' before 'group'.
× I prefer to communicate face to face because I feel more connected with them and personal conversations.
✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because I feel more connected with them during personal conversations.
The phrase 'and personal conversations' is incomplete and unclear. Adding 'during' clarifies the relationship between feeling connected and personal conversations.
× But sometimes social media also works. For example, I live in Canada and my friends live in the Philippines so the distance is a entrance.
✓ But sometimes social media also works. For example, I live in Canada and my friends live in the Philippines, so the distance is an obstacle.
The phrase 'the distance is a entrance' is incorrect. 'Entrance' is not appropriate here; 'an obstacle' or 'a barrier' fits better. Also, 'a' should be 'an' before a vowel sound.
× But with this help.
✓ But with this help, we can stay connected.
The sentence fragment 'But with this help.' is incomplete and needs to be connected to a main clause to be grammatically correct.
× Sometimes I argue with my friends, especially when the topic is controversial, especially politics.
✓ Sometimes I argue with my friends, especially when the topic is controversial, such as politics.
Repeating 'especially' is redundant. Using 'such as' clarifies the example of a controversial topic.
× Everyone has their own opinion and we have freedoms of speech to follow, like anyone can convey their thoughts.
✓ Everyone has their own opinion and we have freedom of speech to follow, so anyone can convey their thoughts.
The phrase 'freedoms of speech' is incorrect; the correct term is 'freedom of speech'. Also, 'like' is informal and should be replaced with 'so' for clarity.
