× Yeah, I like the taking the pictures of different views.
✓ Yeah, I like taking pictures of different views.
The phrase 'the taking the pictures' incorrectly includes an extra definite article and redundant 'the'. Use the gerund 'taking' without 'the' and omit the extra 'the' before 'pictures'. Suggestion: 'I like taking pictures of different views.' Use gerund after 'like' for general preference.
× Because it developed my skills in photography and it also goes my energy and gives me pleasant, uh, nature, present way of nature to me.
✓ Because it has developed my photography skills, it also boosts my energy and gives me a pleasant connection with nature.
Multiple issues: 'developed' should be present perfect 'has developed' to show ongoing result; 'goes my energy' is incorrect verb choice and structure—use 'boosts my energy'; 'gives me pleasant, ... way of nature' is awkward; rephrase to 'gives me a pleasant connection with nature'. Suggestion: use present perfect for effects continuing to now and choose correct verbs and noun phrases.
× I prefer most of the my views in rural areas.
✓ I prefer most of my views in rural areas.
'the my' uses two articles/pronouns together; only 'my' is needed. Also 'prefer most of my views' is odd but acceptable; better: 'I prefer rural views.' Remove the definite article before 'my'.
× Because there we can see the mountains, rivers, valleys etcetera present.
✓ Because there we can see mountains, rivers, valleys, etc.
'present' at end is unnecessary and awkward. Also plural nouns do not need 'the' here. Use 'etc.' and remove 'present'. Suggestion: keep list concise.
× I visited my hometown which is located in common district.
✓ I visited my hometown, which is located in a nearby district.
'Common district' is unclear; likely intended 'nearby' or 'a common district' with article. Use 'a nearby district' or specify name. Add comma for nonrestrictive clause. Use correct adjective and article.
× There the village is full of surrounding by full of plants and we can see the near air nearby.
✓ The village there is surrounded by many plants, and the air is fresh.
Original has redundant and incorrect prepositions: 'full of surrounding by full of' is wrong. Use passive 'surrounded by many plants'. 'we can see the near air nearby' is ungrammatical; likely meant 'the air is fresh' or 'we can enjoy the fresh air'. Suggest clearer nouns and adjectives.
× So I click the pleasant views of my village which is very.
✓ So I take pleasant photos of my village, which is very beautiful.
'click' is informal/inappropriate in this context—use 'take photos'. 'which is very' is incomplete; complete with adjective 'beautiful'. Also reorder: 'take pleasant photos of my village'.
× Yes, I prefer views in my own country.
✓ Yes, I prefer views in my own country.
This sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. It uses 'prefer' appropriately with 'I'. Included for completeness.
× Because India is most of the foreigners came to come to India to to take their different views of the pictures.
✓ Because many foreigners come to India to take pictures of its diverse scenery.
Original mixes tenses and uses quantifiers incorrectly: 'most of the foreigners came to come to India' is redundant and ungrammatical. Use 'many foreigners come to India' (present simple for habitual action). 'to take pictures of its diverse scenery' is concise. Remove duplicated 'to'.
× Why? Why? Because in India we can see the different types of mountains, valleys, rivers.
✓ Because in India we can see many different types of mountains, valleys, and rivers.
Repetition 'Why? Why?' is disfluent but not strictly grammar; main fix is add 'many' and serial comma; keep present simple 'we can see' which is appropriate.
× Most of the things you can see we can get in New York only so.
✓ Most of these sights are not available only in New York; you can see many of them in India as well.
Original is ungrammatical and unclear. Rephrase to express intended contrast: 'Most of these sights are not exclusive to New York; you can also see many of them in India.' Use clear subject-verb order and logical connectors.
