Emails— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Reduce fillers (uh), make the sentence structure more natural and concise, and include a brief specific example of typical email content. Keep to 2–3 sentences and use linking words if adding details.

Exemplo: Yes, I send emails every day because I work as a lawyer and need to communicate with clients and colleagues. For example, I often email contract drafts or meeting summaries to ensure everyone is clear on next steps.

Sugestão: Combine short sentences for fluency, avoid repeating ideas, and add a specific reason or example to support your preference for instant messaging. Use a linking word (e.g., 'because' or 'so') to connect ideas.

Exemplo: I usually send emails during work hours to colleagues and partner firms, because I need a formal record of discussions. For casual or quick matters, I prefer instant messaging since it’s faster and more informal.

Sugestão: Correct grammar (singular/plural and verb agreement), remove fillers, and make the reason clearer and more specific. Use one linking phrase (e.g., 'however' or 'because') to contrast work and social use.

Exemplo: Yes, emails are popular in professional settings in China; however, they are not common for social use because people find them time-consuming and less convenient than apps like WeChat.

Sugestão: Avoid filler words and unclear expressions. State a clear reason and, if possible, a brief prediction about contexts where email use will increase. Keep to 2–3 concise sentences and use a linking word such as 'because' or 'so'.

Exemplo: I think email use will remain important and may grow in professional contexts because companies need reliable records and formal communication. For instance, remote work and digital contracts will likely increase reliance on email.

× my work requires to communicate with uh, legal ways such as emails

✓ my work requires communicating in legal ways such as emails

After the verb 'require' when meaning 'need', the gerund (verb + -ing) is used rather than an infinitive with 'to'. Use 'requires communicating' instead of 'requires to communicate'. Also 'in legal ways' is more natural than 'with ... ways' so adjust preposition.

× Because I use my emails just for work, I don't prefer to use them for anything else.

✓ Because I use my email just for work, I don't prefer to use it for anything else.

The student used 'emails' and 'them' but then 'prefer' construction is fine; however 'prefer to use it' agrees with singular 'email' or keep plural consistently. More natural is 'my email' (uncountable in this context) and 'it'. Also 'don't prefer' is grammatically correct but 'I prefer not to use it' is more natural; here only number consistency is corrected.

× I usually use them when I work.

✓ I usually use them at work.

The preposition 'at' is commonly used with 'work' to indicate location or context: 'at work' rather than 'when I work'. Both are acceptable but 'at work' is more concise and idiomatic in this context.

× When I work, I would send emails to my colleagues and associations.

✓ When I work, I send emails to my colleagues and associates.

'Would send' suggests conditional or habitual past; simple present 'send' matches the question about regular behavior. Also 'associations' is incorrect for people; use 'associates' to mean work contacts or colleagues. Corrects tense and plural noun choice.

× Yes, they are populars in work life, but for social life they are uh, not really popular.

✓ Yes, they are popular in work life, but in social life they are not really popular.

'Populars' is incorrect; 'popular' is an adjective and does not take -s. Also use 'in social life' instead of 'for social life' for natural preposition choice. Fixed adjective form and preposition.

× Uh, people doesn't like to use emails as uh, it's requires a lot of time and lack of uh commitment.

✓ People don't like to use email because it requires a lot of time and lacks commitment.

'People' is plural so use 'don't' not 'doesn't'. 'Emails' can be 'email' (uncountable) in this context. 'It's requires' is wrong: either 'it requires' or 'it's' + adjective. Use 'it requires a lot of time' and 'lacks commitment' to make the verbs agree with the nouns. Also 'because' is better than 'as' for clarity.

× I think they will be more popular in the future because, uh, modern technology, uh, forced us to use emails and people are already, uh, using social media to communicate and e-mail, uh, like one of them.

✓ I think they will be more popular in the future because modern technology forces us to use email, and people are already using social media to communicate, with email being one option.

'Forced' is past tense but the sentence refers to a general present/future cause, so use present 'forces'. 'E-mail' is better as 'email' and treat it as an option: 'email being one option' clarifies the comparison. Also remove filler words for clarity and adjust verb tenses to be consistent.
