× I prefer making a list when I shop.
✓ I prefer to make a list when I shop.
The verb 'prefer' is commonly followed by the infinitive form 'to make' rather than the gerund 'making' in formal English. Using 'to make' sounds more natural and grammatically correct in this context.
× buy things which are necessary for my home.
✓ buy things which are necessary to my home.
The correct preposition to express necessity related to a place or purpose is 'to' rather than 'for' in this context. 'Necessary to my home' indicates the things needed by the home.
× it helped me to a avoid umm over buying and buying things which are useless
✓ it helped me to avoid overbuying and buying things which are useless
The article 'a' before 'avoid' is incorrect and should be removed. Also, 'over buying' should be combined into one word 'overbuying' as it is a compound verb form.
× buying things which are useless and uh, which is out of my budget.
✓ buying things which are useless and, uh, which are out of my budget.
The relative pronoun 'which' refers to 'things' (plural), so the verb should be plural 'are' instead of 'is' to maintain subject-verb agreement.
× Yes, I prefer making a list for my work.
✓ Yes, I prefer to make a list for my work.
As before, 'prefer' is better followed by the infinitive 'to make' rather than the gerund 'making' in this formal context.
× For instance, if I am cleaning my home or am planning to clean my home, I consider that as I work, I organize things properly.
✓ For instance, if I am cleaning my home or planning to clean it, I consider that as work and organize things properly.
The original sentence is awkward and contains redundancy. Removing 'am' before 'planning' and restructuring the sentence improves clarity and flow.
× I list down things properly so I can complete my task properly without getting complicated or.
✓ I list things properly so I can complete my task properly without getting complicated.
The phrase 'list down' is informal and redundant; 'list' alone suffices. Also, the sentence ends abruptly with 'or' which is incomplete and should be removed.
× I have seen people who are not interested making list, but I am an exception they may have.
✓ I have seen people who are not interested in making lists, but I am an exception; they may have.
The phrase 'interested making' is incorrect; it should be 'interested in making'. Also, 'list' should be plural 'lists' to match the context. The sentence is also improved by adding a semicolon for clarity.
× I am an exception they may have.
✓ I am an exception to that.
The original phrase is unclear and ungrammatical. 'I am an exception to that' clearly conveys the intended meaning.
× Maybe because of that they are not making this.
✓ Maybe because of that, they are not making lists.
The sentence is incomplete and unclear. Adding a comma after 'that' and specifying 'lists' clarifies the meaning.
× Yes, initially I used to make list on my paper, uh, later I started using phone for convenience
✓ Yes, initially I used to make lists on paper, uh, later I started using my phone for convenience
'Make list' should be 'make lists' to indicate plural. Also, 'on my paper' is better as 'on paper'. 'Using phone' is better specified as 'using my phone' for clarity.
× I sometimes what happened is I may forgot, forget this paper somewhere and I will be left, uh, confused.
✓ Sometimes what happens is I may forget this paper somewhere and I am left, uh, confused.
The sentence mixes tenses incorrectly. 'May forgot' is wrong; it should be 'may forget'. Also, 'will be left' is better as 'am left' to maintain present relevance.
× But phone is handy. I, I carry it everywhere, so I prefer using phone more.
✓ But the phone is handy. I carry it everywhere, so I prefer using my phone more.
'Phone' needs the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific object. Also, 'using phone' should be 'using my phone' for clarity and correctness.
