Friends— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Answer the comparison directly and organize the ideas clearly. Explain how you communicated or met friends in the past, then describe what you do now. Avoid repeating “my cousin” and use accurate phrases such as “I used to call my friends” and “we now play online.”

Ejemplo: Yes, there is a difference. I used to call my friends or chat with them on WhatsApp, but now I usually meet my cousin online and play games with him. I still play with my other friends sometimes, but not as often.

Sugerencia: Give a clear reason instead of saying that every place is suitable. Mention useful features, such as being quiet, safe, comfortable, or having enough space, and contrast them with unsuitable places.

Ejemplo: Some places are suitable because they are quiet, safe, and comfortable. For example, a park or someone’s home is a good place to talk and play. Busy roads or noisy shops are less suitable because it is difficult to hear each other.

Sugerencia: Your preference and reason are clear, but correct the grammar: say “better” rather than “more better,” and “a large group of friends can be difficult to manage.” Add one specific benefit of spending time with one friend.

Ejemplo: I prefer spending time with one friend because it is easier to talk and concentrate on each other. Large groups can be difficult to manage, and sometimes not everyone gets a chance to speak. I also feel more relaxed with one close friend.

Sugerencia: Answer naturally and explain what you would do at home. Avoid the unclear phrase “through my things” and the repetition in “my my.” Say that you would show your drawings or game creations, and then mention an activity you would enjoy together.

Ejemplo: Yes, I would. I could show my friends the things I have made in my games and some of my drawings. After that, we could play together or have a snack in my room. My home would be a comfortable place to spend time together.

Sugerencia: State the importance clearly and give two or three organized reasons. Explain that friends help you avoid feeling bored, play games with you, and share your interests. Use natural expressions such as “I would feel lonely” and “show them my drawings.”

Ejemplo: Friends are very important to me because they make my life more enjoyable. I can play games with them, ask them for help, and show them my drawings. Without my friends, I would probably feel lonely and bored.

Sugerencia: Give a direct frequency and then provide a clear example. Avoid repeating “go out” and uncertain phrases such as “I don’t know.” Use “I go out about once every three months” if that is your intended meaning, and mention birthday parties as an example.

Ejemplo: No, I do not often go out with my friends. I usually meet them at birthday parties or other special events. On average, I go out with them about once every three months.

Sugerencia: Avoid repeating “meet each other” and identify the app correctly if you can. Explain that you meet at one another’s homes or talk while playing games online. Use linking words such as “usually” and “when.”

Ejemplo: We do not meet in person very often. When we do, we usually meet at each other’s homes. Otherwise, we play games online and talk through an app such as Discord.

Sugerencia: Your answer is direct and includes relevant examples. Improve the grammar by saying “because it is fun to play with other people,” and add one more specific activity or reason to make the response more developed.

Ejemplo: I usually play video games with my friends, especially Minecraft and Roblox, because it is more fun to play with other people. We build things, complete challenges, and chat while we are playing. Sometimes we also share our drawings.

Sugerencia: Answer confidently by saying that your cousin is also a close friend. Keep the tense consistent: use “I have known him since I was two or three” and “I have played with him for about seven or eight years.” Avoid unnecessary uncertainty and repetition.

Ejemplo: Yes, my cousin is also one of my closest friends. I have known him since I was two or three years old, and we have played together for about seven or eight years. We still enjoy playing games and spending time together.

× I had a friendly group chata and whats up before that I called but now I only play with my cousin and my other friends only play other games with my cousin. I only play sometimes with my other friends.

✓ I used to have a friendly group chat and use WhatsApp. Before that, I called my friends, but now I only play with my cousin. I sometimes play with my other friends.

The phrase used to is needed to describe a past habit that is no longer true. The past-tense verb called is suitable for an action that happened before the present. The correction also separates the ideas into clearer sentences.

× I had a friendly group chata and whats up before that I called but now I only play with my cousin and my other friends only play other games with my cousin. I only play sometimes with my other friends.

Several complete ideas were joined without appropriate punctuation or linking words. Use separate sentences and conjunctions such as but to make the relationships between the ideas clear.

× I think one friend is more better as we can concentrate on one friend and a lot of friends is hard to handle.

✓ I think spending time with one friend is better because we can concentrate on one person, and spending time with a lot of friends is hard to handle.

Better is already the comparative form of good, so it cannot be used with more. Use better, not more better.

× I think one friend is more better as we can concentrate on one friend and a lot of friends is hard to handle.

✓ I think spending time with one friend is better because we can concentrate on one person, and spending time with a lot of friends is hard to handle.

The subject spending time with a lot of friends is a gerund phrase and is singular. Therefore, the verb should be is, as in is hard to handle. The correction also avoids using the plural noun friends directly as the subject of is.

✓ Yes, I would like to invite my friends to my home so that I can show them the things I have made in my game, my drawings, and other things, and play with them.

The original sentence does not contain a complete and correctly organized verb structure after as I can. Use show them to express the intended action, and use so that to explain the purpose of inviting the friends.

× Yes, I would like to invite my friends to my home as I can through my my things that I made in my game and a lot of other things like my drawings and play with them.

✓ Yes, I would like to invite my friends to my home so that I can show them the things I have made in my game, my drawings, and other things, and play with them.

The pronoun them is needed after show because it refers to my friends, the people who will see the things. The original phrase my my things does not use a correct pronoun or verb structure.

× Friends are very important as I don't have anyone else that plays with me and then I will feel bored that nobody helps me in games or play with me or I can show my drawing tools.

✓ Friends are very important to me because, without them, I would feel bored. Nobody else would help me with games, play with me, or let me show them my drawing tools.

The original sentence contains too many ideas joined together without a clear structure. Dividing it into two sentences makes the reason and result easier to understand. The phrase without them clearly explains the condition.

× Friends are very important as I don't have anyone else that plays with me and then I will feel bored that nobody helps me in games or play with me or I can show my drawing tools.

✓ Friends are very important to me because, without them, I would feel bored. Nobody else would help me with games, play with me, or let me show them my drawing tools.

The verbs in a list should have parallel forms. After would, use the base forms help, play, and let. The original combination helps and play is grammatically inconsistent.

× No, I don't often go with out with my friends I only go out like in some birthday parties or some things we can say we go out like sometimes in three months I don't know.

✓ No, I do not often go out with my friends. I only go out for birthday parties or other special occasions, perhaps once every three months.

✓ We do not often meet in person. We usually meet at each other's houses, or we just play games while talking on an app called This Call.

Use at with houses when describing the location of a meeting. Use on with an app or platform. The correction also uses meet in person to distinguish physical meetings from online meetings.

× We don't often meet each other we often meet each other in each other's house or we just play games while talking in app called this call.

✓ We do not often meet in person. We usually meet at each other's houses, or we just play games while talking on an app called This Call.

A singular countable noun such as app needs an article. Use an because app begins with a vowel sound: an app.

× We don't often meet each other we often meet each other in each other's house or we just play games while talking in app called this call.

✓ We do not often meet in person. We usually meet at each other's houses, or we just play games while talking on an app called This Call.

× We cannot say it a friend or we can as it is my cousin and I've known him since I was like two or three years old and I play with them since many years like seven or eight and like I'm ten years old.

✓ We can say that he is my friend, even though he is my cousin. I have known him since I was two or three years old, and I have played with him for seven or eight years. I am ten years old now.

Use he and him consistently because the cousin is male. The original sentence changes from him to them, which creates a pronoun agreement error.

× We cannot say it a friend or we can as it is my cousin and I've known him since I was like two or three years old and I play with them since many years like seven or eight and like I'm ten years old.

✓ We can say that he is my friend, even though he is my cousin. I have known him since I was two or three years old, and I have played with him for seven or eight years. I am ten years old now.

Use the present perfect have played for an activity that began in the past and continues to the present. The simple present play does not correctly express this duration.

× We cannot say it a friend or we can as it is my cousin and I've known him since I was like two or three years old and I play with them since many years like seven or eight and like I'm ten years old.

✓ We can say that he is my friend, even though he is my cousin. I have known him since I was two or three years old, and I have played with him for seven or eight years. I am ten years old now.

Use since with a specific starting point, such as since I was two years old. Use for with a period of time, such as for seven or eight years. Therefore, for is required instead of since before many years.

× We cannot say it a friend or we can as it is my cousin and I've known him since I was like two or three years old and I play with them since many years like seven or eight and like I'm ten years old.

✓ We can say that he is my friend, even though he is my cousin. I have known him since I was two or three years old, and I have played with him for seven or eight years. I am ten years old now.

The original answer contains several clauses joined with and, but the relationships between them are unclear. Use separate sentences and the conjunction even though to show the contrast between being a cousin and being a friend.
