× Chatting with friends on social media is something that I do everyday of my life.

✓ Chatting with friends on social media is something that I do every day of my life.

The phrase 'everyday' is an adjective meaning 'commonplace' or 'ordinary', but the correct form here is 'every day' as two words, which means 'each day'. This is a common mistake and should be corrected to 'every day' to indicate frequency.

× After I close room work, I try to keep in contact with all close friends and relatives and ask about how they are doing, how their day was and the activities they plan to do at the weekend.

✓ After I finish room work, I try to keep in contact with all close friends and relatives and ask about how they are doing, how their day was and the activities they plan to do at the weekend.

The phrase 'close room work' is unclear and likely incorrect. The verb 'close' is not appropriate here. The correct verb is 'finish' or 'complete' to indicate ending work. Also, 'room work' may be a mishearing or typo; assuming it means 'homework' or 'room work' as a task, 'finish' is the correct verb.

× After I close room work, I try to keep in contact with all close friends and relatives and ask about how they are doing, how their day was and the activities they plan to do at the weekend.

✓ After I finish room work, I try to keep in contact with all close friends and relatives and ask about how they are doing, how their day was and the activities they plan to do on the weekend.

The preposition 'at' is incorrectly used with 'the weekend'. The correct preposition is 'on' when referring to days or parts of days such as 'on the weekend'.

× Because most of the time during the weekend I like hanging out with family and friends to release stress.

✓ Because most of the time during the weekend I like to hang out with family and friends to relieve stress.

The verb 'like' is usually followed by the infinitive form 'to hang out' rather than the gerund 'hanging out' in this context. Also, 'release stress' is less common than 'relieve stress', which is the correct collocation.

× Most of my friends are into their own personal business so when I get the opportunity to talk to them we usually talk about how business is doing and ways to move forward in their business.

✓ Most of my friends are into their own personal businesses so when I get the opportunity to talk to them we usually talk about how business is doing and ways to move forward in their businesses.

The word 'business' should be plural 'businesses' when referring to multiple friends each having their own business. This is a singular and plural agreement issue.

× Most of them do not have monies on their own, they take loans from banks.

✓ Most of them do not have money on their own; they take loans from banks.

The word 'monies' is a formal plural of 'money' but is rarely used in everyday speech. The correct and common term is 'money' which is uncountable and does not have a plural form in this context.

× So when I talk to them I give them advice as to how to gather money and be able to pay their debt at the bank and also save more.

✓ So when I talk to them I give them advice on how to gather money and be able to pay their debt to the bank and also save more.

The phrase 'advice as to how' is better expressed as 'advice on how'. Also, the correct preposition with 'pay their debt' is 'to the bank' rather than 'at the bank'.

× Chatting with a group of people is very lively, especially when you know each other.

✓ Chatting with a group of people is very lively, especially when you know one another.

The pronoun 'each other' is used for two people, while 'one another' is used for more than two. Since a group implies more than two people, 'one another' is more appropriate.

× But personally, I do love communicating with them individually.

✓ But personally, I do love communicating with them individually.

No correction needed here as the pronouns are used correctly.

× Social media conversation is very lively as speak.

✓ Social media conversation is very lively as speaking.

The phrase 'as speak' is incorrect. The correct form is 'as speaking' to compare the liveliness of social media conversation to speaking.

× This is because you are able to talk to people when wherever they are, irrespective of the location.

✓ This is because you are able to talk to people wherever they are, irrespective of the location.

The phrase 'when wherever' is redundant and incorrect. The correct phrase is simply 'wherever'.

× But if I get the opportunity to have conversation, talking to people face to face will be my freebies.

✓ But if I get the opportunity to have a conversation, talking to people face to face will be my preference.

The phrase 'have conversation' needs the article 'a' before 'conversation'. Also, 'my freebies' is incorrect and unclear; likely the intended word is 'preference'.

× This is because it gives me the chance to be able to hug my friends, to talk to them in person and this really brings about a sense of belonging.

✓ This is because it gives me the chance to hug my friends, to talk to them in person, and this really brings about a sense of belonging.

The phrase 'to be able to hug' is wordy; 'to hug' is sufficient. Also, commas are needed before 'and' in a list for clarity.

× Argument is something that my friends and I do most the time.

✓ Arguments are something that my friends and I have most of the time.

The noun 'Argument' should be plural 'Arguments' to match 'my friends and I'. Also, the phrase 'do most the time' is incorrect; 'have most of the time' is better.

× This is not on a bad note but because we disagree on certain issues.

✓ This is not on a bad note but because we disagree on certain issues.

No correction needed here.

× For example, some of my friends will be will be of the view that ladies are supposed to be in scarce because trousers are meant for men, while others will also say that the term trousers are made specifically for women.

✓ For example, some of my friends will be of the view that ladies are supposed to be scarce because trousers are meant for men, while others will also say that trousers are made specifically for women.

The phrase 'be in scarce' is incorrect; 'be scarce' is correct. Also, 'the term trousers are made' is incorrect; 'trousers are made' is correct. The repeated 'will be' is a typo and corrected.

× So argument.

✓ So, argument is a common topic among us.

The sentence 'So argument.' is incomplete and lacks a verb. It needs to be expanded to form a complete sentence.
