× Texture is crispy in the outside and juicy in the inside.
✓ The texture is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
Use the definite article 'the' with 'texture' and the correct prepositions 'on the outside' and 'on the inside'. Also add the article before 'texture' and use 'on' for surfaces. Suggestion: say 'The texture is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.' to be natural and grammatically correct.
× I often eat fried chicken for dinner with my family on weekend.
✓ I often eat fried chicken for dinner with my family on weekends.
Use the plural 'weekends' or include an article 'on the weekend' when referring to habitual actions. Suggestion: use 'on weekends' for general habitual statements.
× My mom usually didn't allow me to eat an often, but as a child I still managed to try them sometimes.
✓ My mom usually didn't allow me to eat them often, but as a child I still managed to try them sometimes.
The adverb 'often' should follow the object 'them' in this sentence. 'An' is incorrect before 'often'. Also replace 'an often' with 'them often' because 'them' refers to sugary foods. Suggestion: place adverbs in correct position: 'didn't allow me to eat them often.'
× Yes, I usually eat different foods in different time of the year because some food and vegetable are seasonal and also the weather changes.
✓ Yes, I usually eat different foods at different times of the year because some foods and vegetables are seasonal and the weather changes.
Use 'at different times of the year' for periods, plural 'times'. Use plural 'foods' and 'vegetables' when speaking generally. 'Some' requires plural nouns here. Also remove redundant 'also'. Suggestion: say 'at different times of the year' and use plural nouns for general statements.
× Like for example in the summer I prefer something likely like salad or fruit but in the winter I uh I eat more soup and hot meals.
✓ For example, in the summer I prefer lighter things like salads or fruit, but in the winter I eat more soup and hot dishes.
Use 'lighter' (adjective) and plural nouns 'salads' and 'fruit' or 'fruits'. 'Likely' was incorrect. Use 'hot dishes' instead of 'hot meals' for natural phrasing and remove filler 'uh'. Suggestion: use precise adjectives and plural nouns: 'I prefer lighter things like salads or fruit.'
× Yes, it had.
✓ Yes, it has.
The question asks about change since childhood (present perfect). Use present perfect 'has' to indicate a change up to now, not past perfect 'had' which requires a reference point in the past. Suggestion: answer 'Yes, it has.' for changes that continue to the present.
× As a child I prefer sugary foods like candy and chocolate, but now as I grow up, I prefer savoury dishes like rice with meat and vegetable because they are more satisfying and healthier.
✓ As a child I preferred sugary foods like candy and chocolate, but now as I have grown up I prefer savoury dishes like rice with meat and vegetables because they are more satisfying and healthier.
Use past tense 'preferred' for past habits. Use present perfect 'have grown up' or 'have gotten older' to show change to the present. Use plural 'vegetables'. Suggestion: match tenses for past habits and present state: 'As a child I preferred... but now I prefer...'.
× For example, I used to ask my parents for ice cream every day and.
✓ For example, I used to ask my parents for ice cream every day.
The sentence ends with an unfinished conjunction 'and' causing incomplete structure. Remove the trailing 'and' to complete the sentence. Suggestion: avoid trailing conjunctions; complete the sentence or remove the extra conjunction.
