Singing— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and structured: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetition and tense errors.

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy singing. When I was young I often sang with classmates during breaks, which was fun and helped me relax. Now I usually sing while showering because it cheers me up and helps me start the day positively.

Sugestão: Give a clear direct answer, then explain briefly with a specific reason and use correct tense and vocabulary (e.g. 'extracurricular'). Use a linking word like 'because' or 'so'.

Exemplo: No, I have never had formal singing lessons because my family and community emphasized academic study over extracurricular activities. As a result, I never had the opportunity to join music classes.

Sugestão: Answer directly then provide one or two specific supporting details; correct tense and phrasing (e.g. 'when we are in a romantic mood'). Avoid awkward phrases like 'attempt few songs'.

Exemplo: I usually sing for my boyfriend, especially when we are in a romantic mood. He appreciates my singing, so I often learn a few love songs to perform for him.

Sugestão: Give a clear opinion then support it with a concise personal example and correct grammar (use singular/plural correctly and smoother linking).

Exemplo: Yes, I believe singing and music can lift people's spirits. For example, when I feel sad I listen to upbeat songs and within minutes my mood improves.

Sugestão: Start with a direct statement, then give specific details about the person you enjoy listening to. Fix grammar (subject-verb agreement) and avoid repetition.

Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy listening to other people sing, especially my friend Alina. She has a clear, expressive voice and excellent pronunciation, so I often listen to her recordings.

Sugestão: Reply directly, then briefly restate the reason with clearer wording and correct vocabulary. Use linking words like 'because' and avoid unclear phrases ('diverse students focus').

Exemplo: No, I have never taken a singing class because my parents and community prioritized academic study over extracurricular activities, so I never had the chance to learn music.

× Yes I do even though I'm not a good singer but I love singing especially when I was young I used to sing with my friends in my class.

✓ Yes, I do. Even though I'm not a good singer, I love singing. Especially when I was young, I used to sing with my classmates.

Run-on sentence and tense/word choice issues. Split into shorter sentences for clarity; 'in my class' is better as 'with my classmates'. Present-tense introductory 'Yes I do' is fine; 'used to' correctly expresses past habitual action. Add commas and periods.

× Whenever we get free time, I used to sing with my friends.

✓ Whenever we got free time, I used to sing with my friends.

Mixed present ('get') with past habitual 'used to' creates tense inconsistency. Use past tense 'got' to match 'used to'.

× Now also I sing especially when I am bathing so I like singing.

✓ I still sing now, especially when I am bathing, so I like singing.

Awkward word order and missing commas. 'Now also' is unnatural; 'I still sing now' or 'I still sing' is better. Add commas to separate clauses.

× No, I didn't.

✓ No, I haven't.

Question asked 'Have you ever learnt...?' requires present perfect answer. 'I didn't' (simple past) is less appropriate; use 'I haven't' or 'No, I haven't.'

× I haven't got any chance to learn music because especially in my place, my parents and the society were focused on studies rather than extracalicular activities.

✓ I haven't had any chance to learn music because, especially where I lived, my parents and the community focused on studies rather than extracurricular activities.

'Haven't got any chance' is acceptable in some varieties, but consistency with tense and word choice: use 'haven't had' or 'didn't have'. 'In my place' is unnatural; 'where I lived' is clearer. 'Society' better as 'community'. Spelling: 'extracalicular' -> 'extracurricular'.

× That's why I hadn't got any chance.

✓ That's why I didn't have any chance.

Mismatch of tenses and British colloquial 'hadn't got' is awkward after 'That's why'. Use simple past 'didn't have' or present perfect 'haven't had' depending on context.

× I love to sing for my boyfriend especially we were in the romantic mood.

✓ I love to sing for my boyfriend, especially when we are in a romantic mood.

Missing conjunction 'when' and tense mismatch: use present 'are' for general habit. Add comma and article 'a' before 'romantic mood'.

× He likes my singing even though it wasn't very good.

✓ He likes my singing even though it's not very good.

Mix of present 'He likes' with past 'wasn't' is inconsistent. Use present tense 'it's not' to match 'He likes'.

× So I like to learn lyrics for him and I like to attempt few songs only for him.

✓ So I like learning songs' lyrics for him, and I like to try a few songs only for him.

Verb forms: 'like to learn lyrics' -> 'like learning songs' lyrics' for natural phrasing. 'Attempt few songs' -> 'try a few songs' ('a few' requires article). Also possessive placement and commas improve clarity.

× Yes, because music have a different specialty that can change people's mind and mood.

✓ Yes, because music has a special quality that can change people's minds and moods.

Subject-verb agreement: 'music' is singular, so use 'has' not 'have'. 'a different specialty' is awkward; use 'a special quality'. Plurals: 'mind and mood' -> 'minds and moods'.

× From my experience, whenever I felt sad I like to hear songs and after couple of minutes the music left to my change my mood.

✓ From my experience, whenever I feel sad I like to listen to songs, and after a couple of minutes the music changes my mood.

Tense inconsistency: 'felt' (past) vs 'I like' (present). Use present 'feel' for habitual action. Use 'listen to' rather than 'hear', add article 'a' before 'couple', and correct clause 'the music left to my change my mood' to 'the music changes my mood'.

× So yeah it is music can do that.

✓ So yeah, music can do that.

Redundant 'it is' and awkward word order. Remove 'it is' to form correct subject-verb order 'music can do that'.

× Is I really like to listen music, especially my friend songs.

✓ I really like to listen to music, especially my friend's songs.

Starts with extraneous 'Is'. Use 'listen to music' construction, and possessive 'my friend's songs'.

× One of my friend, her name is Alina.

✓ One of my friends; her name is Alina.

'One of my friend' should be plural 'friends'. Avoid redundant pronoun 'her' in same clause; use semicolon or 'and'.

× Her voice and the pronunciation, the clarity is superb.

✓ Her voice, pronunciation, and clarity are superb.

Parallel structure and subject-verb agreement: list items 'voice, pronunciation, and clarity' are plural so use 'are'. Remove redundant 'the' and rearrange for natural English.

× So I like to hear her songs every time.

✓ So I like to listen to her songs all the time.

'Hear' is passive perception; 'listen to' implies active listening. 'Every time' unnatural here; 'all the time' is idiomatic.

× And yeah, that's I like her songs very much.

✓ And yeah, that's why I like her songs very much.

Missing 'why' after 'that's' to explain reason. Add 'why' for correct clause.

× No. As I mentioned earlier, my parents in the society where I used to live were very conservative.

✓ No. As I mentioned earlier, my parents and the community where I used to live were very conservative.

Awkward phrase 'my parents in the society' unclear. Clarify as 'my parents and the community where I used to live'.

× They thought the music and the extracurricular activities made diverse students focus.

✓ They thought music and extracurricular activities distracted students from their studies.

Original is unclear: 'made diverse students focus' incorrect. Likely meaning is 'distracted students from focusing on studies.' Use 'distracted students from their studies' for clarity.

× So I haven't got an opportunity to learn music.

✓ So I haven't had an opportunity to learn music.

Present perfect form: 'haven't got' is colloquial; 'haven't had' is clearer. If referring to past, 'I didn't get an opportunity' would also work.
