× No near to my home.
✓ No, not near my home.
The preposition 'to' is unnecessary after 'near'; use 'near' alone or 'near my home'. Also add 'not' for negation and a comma after 'No' for natural speech rhythm. Suggestion: say 'No, not near my home.' or 'No, there are no tall buildings near my home.'
× They are no tall buildings because my neighborhood is a place with a small house and local stores.
✓ There are no tall buildings because my neighborhood has small houses and local stores.
Use 'There are' to state existence and 'no' after the verb: 'There are no tall buildings.' 'My neighborhood is a place with a small house' is awkward and singular; use plural 'small houses' or rephrase to 'has small houses'. Also 'has' is the correct verb for possession. Suggestion: 'There are no tall buildings because my neighborhood has small houses and local stores.'
× Yes, if I go to the center of my city where they are a lot of tall buildings and I take photos with my phone.
✓ Yes. If I go to the center of my city, where there are a lot of tall buildings, I take photos with my phone.
The phrase 'they are a lot of tall buildings' uses wrong word order and pronoun. Use 'there are' to indicate existence. Add commas to set the relative clause. Suggestion: 'If I go to the center of my city, where there are a lot of tall buildings, I take photos with my phone.'
× Especially on one of one building near to my university who is very tall and has an amazing.
✓ Especially one building near my university that is very tall and amazing.
'Near to' should be 'near' and 'one of one building' is incorrect; likely 'one building' is intended. Use 'that' for buildings (not 'who'). The adjective 'amazing' needs a noun or can stand alone as predicate: 'that is amazing.' Suggestion: 'Especially one building near my university that is very tall and amazing.'
× Yes, umm, I would like to visit the Vaticano because I really like this kind of infrastructure and I think that that place has a lot of interesting history on it.
✓ Yes, um, I would like to visit the Vatican because I really like that kind of architecture and I think the place has a lot of interesting history.
Use the English name 'the Vatican'. 'This kind of infrastructure' is unnatural; 'that kind of architecture' fits better. Avoid repeating 'that that'. 'Has a lot of interesting history on it' is unidiomatic; say 'has a lot of interesting history.' Suggestion: 'I would like to visit the Vatican because I like that kind of architecture and I think the place has a lot of interesting history.'
× No, because I don't feel it like a safety place.
✓ No, because I don't feel it is a safe place.
Use 'feel it is' or better 'find it' and 'safe' (adjective) not 'safety' (noun). The phrase 'like a safe place' is possible but 'feel it is a safe place' is more natural. Suggestion: 'I don't feel it is a safe place.'
× In my case I prefer to living in a house or in a flat because I don't feel comfortable, uh, comfortable table living in a small building.
✓ In my case, I prefer living in a house or a flat because I don't feel comfortable living in a small building.
After 'prefer' use the gerund 'living' (or 'to live'). Remove the duplicated 'comfortable' and the stray word 'table'. Keep 'a house or a flat' parallel. Suggestion: 'I prefer living in a house or a flat because I don't feel comfortable living in a small building.'
