Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Answer directly, and use the base form of the verb after “didn’t”: say “didn’t have,” not “didn’t had.” Use “a bike” for a natural, concise answer.
Exemplo: No, I didn’t have a bike when I was a child. I usually walked or took the bus instead.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Pontuação: 45.0Sugestão: Use the plural “bikes” when speaking generally, and connect your ideas with a linking word such as “although.” The personal detail is relevant, but express it more naturally and avoid repeating “for myself.” You could also add a specific reason why bikes are popular.
Exemplo: Yes, bikes are quite popular in my country, especially in cities where they’re a convenient way to get around. I don’t own one, though, because I can’t afford to buy one at the moment.

After did or didn't, use the base form of the verb. Change had to have. The past tense is already expressed by didn't.
× Yes bike is very popular in my country but me myself can't have it because I can't afford a bike for myself and my family also can't support me.
✓ Yes, bikes are very popular in my country, but I can't have one because I can't afford one, and my family can't support me either.
When speaking about bikes in general, use the plural noun bikes and the plural verb are. Use one to refer back to a bike without repeating the noun.

✓ Yes, bikes are very popular in my country, but I can't have one because I can't afford one, and my family can't support me either.
Me is an object pronoun and cannot be used as the subject of a clause. Use I as the subject. In this correction, I is used, and the unnecessary phrase me myself is removed.
