✓ Definitely, making a list is my priority because I am a forgetful shopper if I just go there unannounced and if I do not have a list with me, I will tend to forget what to buy, where to buy, because I am a focused person, I shall say.
The sentence starts abruptly with 'Definitely making a list' which can be confusing. Adding a comma after 'Definitely' clarifies that 'making a list' is the subject. This improves readability and grammatical correctness by properly separating the adverb from the gerund phrase.
× So yeah, making a list of things that I should be doing in the college for that particular day will be really helpful.
✓ So yeah, making a list of things that I should do in the college for that particular day will be really helpful.
The phrase 'should be doing' is a continuous form which is unnecessary here. Using the simple form 'should do' is more appropriate to express planned or intended actions, making the sentence clearer and grammatically correct.
× You cannot just go and announce.
✓ You cannot just go and shop without a list.
The original sentence 'You cannot just go and announce' is incomplete and unclear. The verb 'announce' is incorrectly used here. The intended meaning is likely that one cannot just go shopping without preparation. Replacing 'announce' with 'shop without a list' corrects the preposition and verb usage to fit the context.
× Some people do not like making a list because it is time consuming I must say, and also because they have to really sit and think.
✓ Some people do not like making a list because it is time-consuming, I must say, and also because they have to really sit and think.
The phrase 'time consuming' should be hyphenated as 'time-consuming' when used as an adjective before a noun or in this context. This is a standard rule in English to correctly form compound adjectives.
× I prefer making a list on my phone because that saves the time and it is also eco friendly because for paper if I write on the paper it will be I will need paper and a pen so that is like not so eco friendly.
✓ I prefer making a list on my phone because that saves time and it is also eco-friendly. If I write on paper, I will need paper and a pen, so that is not so eco-friendly.
The original sentence has awkward phrasing and incorrect preposition use such as 'for paper if I write on the paper it will be I will need paper'. Simplifying and correcting prepositions to 'If I write on paper' and breaking the sentence into clearer parts improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
