Grammar

Sentence structure errors

× To tell you the truth, I live in a big city so near my home the there are tall a lot of tall buildings. Umm it is beautiful and unusual.

To tell you the truth, I live in a big city, so there are a lot of tall buildings near my home. It is beautiful and unusual.

The original sentence has mixed word order and extra articles causing confusion. 'the there are' is incorrect; correct structure is 'there are' followed by quantity 'a lot of' and the noun phrase 'tall buildings'. Also split into two sentences for clarity. Suggestion: place 'near my home' after the clause or use commas to separate clauses and avoid repeating articles.

Verb in the present participle form

× I'm a photographer. I do a lot of pictures every day, but I don't know, taking photos of buildings, it's not for me. It's not interesting.

I'm a photographer. I take a lot of pictures every day, but taking photos of buildings is not for me. It's not interesting to me.

Use the base verb 'take' for habitual actions ('I take a lot of pictures every day') rather than 'do a lot of pictures'. 'Taking photos of buildings, it's not for me' has an unnecessary subject 'it' and awkward punctuation; use a gerund clause 'Taking photos of buildings is not for me.' Add 'to me' for natural phrasing. Suggestion: use gerund as subject without extra 'it' and use correct verb for habits.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× Yes, in my country, in Russia, there are some buildings that I would like to visit, for example, in Moscow, in Saint Petersburg, because these cities have beautiful architecture and I really excite, exciting.

Yes, in my country, Russia, there are some buildings that I would like to visit, for example in Moscow and Saint Petersburg, because these cities have beautiful architecture and I am really excited.

'I really excite, exciting' is incorrect. The correct adjective describing feeling is 'excited', not the verb 'excite' or present participle 'exciting'. Also simplify location phrases ('in my country, Russia') and use 'and' between cities. Suggestion: use 'excited' to describe personal feelings and 'exciting' to describe something that causes excitement.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Yes I do. I want to, to live in a tall building, but I am uh, don't want to leave uh on the uh, upper lower. I would like uh, to live in the downer lower.

Yes, I do. I want to live in a tall building, but I don't want to live on the upper floor. I would like to live on a lower floor.

Original uses incorrect prepositions and nonstandard vocabulary ('leave on the upper lower', 'downer lower'). Use 'live on the upper floor' or 'on an upper floor' and 'on a lower floor'. Also avoid duplicated words and filler sounds. Suggestion: choose standard terms 'upper floor' and 'lower floor' and use 'live on' for floors in a building.
