× I live in the suburbs so there are already several tall buildings near my home and I believe that more high rise will be built in the near future as the area become more developed.
✓ I live in the suburbs, so there are already several tall buildings near my home, and I believe that more high-rises will be built in the near future as the area becomes more developed.
The phrase 'more high rise' is incorrect: 'high-rise' as a noun meaning tall building should be pluralized to 'high-rises' (singular vs plural). Also 'become' must agree with the singular noun 'area' and be 'becomes' (subject-verb agreement). Suggestions: use plural forms for countable nouns and ensure verbs agree with their subjects.
× Yeah, sometime when I go to the places that are, there are many buildings so stunning.
✓ Yeah, sometimes when I go to places, there are many buildings that are so stunning.
The adverb 'sometime' should be 'sometimes' for frequency. The clause word order is incorrect: use 'places' without 'the' and place the relative clause 'that are so stunning' after 'buildings'. 'So stunning' uses adjective with appropriate adverb 'so'. Suggestion: use 'sometimes' and follow normal English adjective clause order: 'buildings that are so stunning'.
× So I take a photo to post on my social media.
✓ So I take a photo to post on my social media.
This sentence is grammatically acceptable but slightly more natural as 'So I take photos to post on my social media.' if plural frequency is intended. No correction required by the given problem list, but consider pluralizing 'photo' to 'photos' for habitual action.
× Yes, I would love to visit the Colosseum in Rome one day because it's a world famous historical building and can learn about Roman architecture.
✓ Yes, I would love to visit the Colosseum in Rome one day because it's a world-famous historical building and I can learn about Roman architecture.
The clause misses the subject 'I' before 'can learn'. Every finite clause needs an explicit subject. Also 'world famous' should be hyphenated as 'world-famous' when used as a compound adjective before a noun. Suggestion: include the subject and hyphenate compound adjectives.
× Then I'm interested in seeing its structure in person and learning more about it history.
✓ Then I'm interested in seeing its structure in person and learning more about its history.
The phrase 'it history' uses incorrect possessive form: 'its' is required to show possession. Suggestion: use 'its' (no apostrophe) for the possessive form of 'it'.
× Well, I guess not because tall a tall building tend to have a small smaller space compared to a home a a red a residential area and I I think it's not matched with my preference.
✓ Well, I guess not because a tall building tends to have a smaller space compared to a home in a residential area, and I think it doesn't match my preference.
Multiple errors: word order and duplication ('tall a tall', 'a a red a') and subject-verb agreement: 'building tend' should be 'building tends' (third person singular). Use comparative 'smaller' correctly. 'Not matched with my preference' is unnatural; use 'doesn't match my preference.' Suggestions: remove duplicated words, use correct article placement ('a tall building'), ensure subject-verb agreement, and use natural collocations like 'match my preference'.
