× I like to hang on with my friends because, uh, it makes me relaxed and much comfortable after a busy, busy schedule, uh, all the day.
✓ I like to hang out with my friends because, uh, it makes me relaxed and much more comfortable after a busy, busy schedule, uh, all day.
The phrase 'hang on with' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'hang out with' when referring to spending time with friends. Also, 'much comfortable' should be 'much more comfortable' to correctly express the comparative degree. 'All the day' should be 'all day' as the correct prepositional phrase.
× I have a small uh, circle of friends, so I like to do.
✓ I have a small, uh, circle of friends, so I like to do that.
The sentence ends abruptly and lacks clarity. Adding 'that' completes the thought. Also, 'small circle of friends' is correct singular usage here.
× I usually, uh, talk about life experiences, the books we read about and also the food, uh, we had uh, recently, for instance, uh, last uh, weekend we went to, uh, uh, nearby restaurant.
✓ I usually, uh, talk about life experiences, the books we read, and also the food we had recently. For instance, last weekend we went to a nearby restaurant.
The phrase 'books we read about' is incorrect; it should be 'books we read'. Also, 'uh, uh, nearby restaurant' needs an article 'a' before 'nearby restaurant' to be grammatically correct.
× We had a delicious food there.
✓ We had delicious food there.
'Food' is an uncountable noun and does not take the indefinite article 'a'. Therefore, 'a delicious food' is incorrect; it should be 'delicious food'.
× So, uh, I experienced it.
✓ So, uh, I enjoyed it.
The verb 'experienced' is awkward in this context. 'Enjoyed' is more appropriate when referring to having a good time with food or an event.
× I prefer to chat with small small group of people.
✓ I prefer to chat with a small small group of people.
The phrase 'small small group' is repetitive and missing the article 'a' before 'small group'. It should be 'a small group of people'.
× I do have small friends of circles so I feel comfortable and relaxing to chat with them rather than having uh group of people I feel relaxed.
✓ I do have small circles of friends, so I feel comfortable and relaxed chatting with them rather than with a group of people.
The phrase 'small friends of circles' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'small circles of friends'. Also, 'relaxing' should be 'relaxed' to describe the feeling. 'Having uh group of people' needs the article 'a' and better phrasing.
× I like to communicate via social media. I feel it's much comfortable rather than, uh, do face to face, uh, communication because, uh, it's very comfortable and uh, relaxed to uh, do message and call via social media.
✓ I like to communicate via social media. I feel it's much more comfortable than face-to-face communication because it's very comfortable and relaxing to send messages and make calls via social media.
'Much comfortable' should be 'much more comfortable' to express comparison. 'Do face to face communication' is incorrect; it should be 'face-to-face communication'. 'Do message and call' should be 'send messages and make calls'.
× I do sometimes if I think that, uh, my friend's attitudes are not, uh, mature enough or sometimes, uh, if they are not, uh, hearing or listening to what I am, uh, saying, like.
✓ I do sometimes if I think that, uh, my friends' attitudes are not mature enough or if they are not listening to what I am saying.
'Friend's attitudes' should be plural possessive 'friends' attitudes' because it refers to multiple friends. 'Hearing or listening' is redundant; 'listening' is sufficient. The phrase 'like' at the end is unnecessary and informal.
