× When I when I was a child then my father bought me a gift a bike.
✓ When I was a child my father bought me a bike.
Redundant words and word order: 'When I when I was a child' repeats 'when I'. Also 'a gift a bike' is redundant; choose one phrase. The sentence refers to a past event so simple past 'bought' is correct. Suggestion: remove repetition and use the natural word order 'When I was a child, my father bought me a bike.'
× So I have a bike when I am child.
✓ So I had a bike when I was a child.
Tense and article/pronoun errors: The sentence refers to the past, so use simple past 'had' and 'was' rather than present 'have'/'am'. Also 'a child' needs the article and correct verb 'was'. Suggestion: match tense across the sentence and use 'a child' with 'was'.
× According to me, bikes are very popular in my country because it helps health and the weight loss.
✓ In my opinion, bikes are very popular in my country because they help with health and weight loss.
Pronoun and verb agreement and phrasing: 'According to me' is unnatural; 'In my opinion' is preferred. 'Bikes' is plural so use plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb 'help' instead of 'it helps'. Also 'helps health and the weight loss' is awkward: use 'help with health and weight loss' or 'promote health and help with weight loss.' Suggestion: use plural agreement and clearer collocations like 'help with' and 'weight loss' without 'the'.
