× with the help of mobile phone and technology
✓ with the help of mobile phones and technology
The phrase 'mobile phone' should be plural 'mobile phones' because it refers to the general use of mobile phones, not a single phone. This is a singular and plural issue, but since it involves preposition phrase, it is best categorized under incorrect use of prepositions.
× I only have one friends
✓ I only have one friend
The word 'friends' is plural, but it should be singular 'friend' because the quantity 'one' requires a singular noun. This is a singular and plural issue.
× She have no idea what's going on in another country
✓ She has no idea what's going on in another country
The verb 'have' should be 'has' to agree with the third person singular subject 'She'. This is a third person singular issue.
× She have no idea what's going on in another country. So definitely I argue with him.
✓ She has no idea what's going on in another country. So definitely I argue with her.
The pronoun 'him' is incorrect because it refers to a male, but the subject is 'She'. The correct pronoun is 'her'. This is an incorrect use of pronouns issue.
× what he's doing or she's doing it spend on the situation
✓ what he's doing or what she's doing depending on the situation
The phrase 'it spend on the situation' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'depending on the situation'. Also, the sentence structure is improved by adding 'what' before 'she's doing'. This is an incorrect use of pronouns and sentence structure issue.
× I am contact connect with my friends and family
✓ I am in contact with my friends and family
The phrase 'contact connect' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'in contact'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions issue.
× I only have one friends and we are in class when we were in our childhood
✓ I only have one friend and we were in the same class when we were children
'Friends' should be singular 'friend' because of 'one'. Also, 'we are in class when we were in our childhood' is awkward; it should be 'we were in the same class when we were children'. This is a singular and plural issue and sentence structure issue.
× technology has lots of thing that make our conversation more easier
✓ technology has lots of things that make our conversation easier
'thing' should be plural 'things' to agree with 'lots of'. Also, 'more easier' is incorrect because 'easier' is already comparative; 'more' is redundant. This is an incorrect use of quantifiers and adjectives issue.
× I like to talk on a different kind of things
✓ I like to talk about different kinds of things
The preposition 'on' is incorrect here; the correct preposition is 'about'. Also, 'a different kind of things' should be plural 'different kinds of things' to agree with 'things'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions and singular/plural issue.
