× I don't have a free time to go library or somewhere else.
✓ I don't have free time to go to the library or somewhere else.
The phrase 'a free time' is incorrect because 'time' is an uncountable noun and does not take the indefinite article 'a'. Also, 'go library' is missing the preposition 'to' before 'library'. The correct form is 'free time' without 'a' and 'go to the library'.
× I don't have a free time to go library or somewhere else.
✓ I don't have free time to go to the library or somewhere else.
The verb 'go' requires the preposition 'to' before a place. Therefore, 'go library' should be corrected to 'go to the library'.
× Once I finish my job I will go to my home and straight away I'm going to sleep.
✓ Once I finish my job, I will go home and straight away I will go to sleep.
The phrase 'go to my home' is less natural than 'go home'. Also, mixing 'I will' and 'I'm going to' in the same sentence for future actions is inconsistent. Using 'I will' for both actions maintains consistency. Adding a comma after the introductory clause improves clarity.
× If I had any chance, definitely I would prefer to go playground instead of like.
✓ If I had any chance, definitely I would prefer to go to the playground instead of somewhere else.
The verb 'go' requires the preposition 'to' before 'playground'. Also, 'instead of like' is incomplete and unclear; it should be 'instead of somewhere else' or a similar phrase to complete the comparison.
× Generally, I didn't go to the library.
✓ Generally, I don't go to the library.
The question is about usual behaviour, so the present tense is appropriate. 'Didn't go' is past tense and implies a completed action, but the student is describing a general habit, so 'don't go' is correct.
× However, by fair chance I will go to the library.
✓ However, by chance I will go to the library.
The phrase 'by fair chance' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'by chance'. The future tense 'will go' is appropriate here.
× Then definitely I would prefer to read the mystery books among others.
✓ Then definitely I would prefer to read mystery books among others.
The article 'the' before 'mystery books' is unnecessary when speaking generally. Also, 'among others' is correctly used to indicate preference among various options.
× You know, mystery books will give some freshness to us.
✓ You know, mystery books will give us some freshness.
The pronoun 'us' should come immediately after the verb 'give' as the indirect object. The original sentence incorrectly places 'to us' at the end, which is less natural.
× Always try to find some details.
✓ I always try to find some details.
The original sentence lacks a subject, making it incomplete. Adding 'I' clarifies who is performing the action.
× And finally end of the book so I can find out the moral of the story.
✓ And finally, at the end of the book, I can find out the moral of the story.
The original sentence is missing prepositions and proper sentence structure. Adding 'at the' before 'end of the book' and restructuring the sentence improves clarity and correctness.
× To be honest, I am.
✓ To be honest, I am not.
The response 'I am' is incomplete and does not answer the question properly. The student likely intended to say 'I am not' to indicate they did not go to the library as a child.
× I didn't go to the library when I was a child because, you know, once I complete my school in the evenings, I mean, I, I play with my friends actually.
✓ I didn't go to the library when I was a child because, you know, once I completed my school in the evenings, I played with my friends actually.
The verbs 'complete' and 'play' should be in the past tense 'completed' and 'played' to match the past time frame indicated by 'when I was a child' and 'didn't go'.
× So I, I do not like to go studying in library.
✓ So I do not like to study in the library.
The phrase 'go studying' is incorrect; the correct form is 'study'. Also, 'in library' requires the definite article 'the' before 'library'.
× I know the person who always sit in the label.
✓ I know the person who always sits in the library.
The verb 'sit' should be 'sits' to agree with the singular subject 'person'. Also, 'label' is likely a mispronunciation or typo for 'library'.
× It depends on the areas where the people are living.
✓ It depends on the area where the people live.
'Areas' is plural but 'where the people are living' is awkward; 'area' singular with 'people live' is more natural. Also, 'are living' can be simplified to 'live' for habitual action.
× If the people are living in a village, usually they are not going to live.
✓ If the people are living in a village, usually they do not go to the library.
The original sentence ends abruptly and incorrectly with 'they are not going to live'. The intended meaning is likely that people in villages do not go to the library, so the correction reflects that.
× However, if the people living in the city areas compulsory, they will go to the library to take some notes of.
✓ However, if people live in city areas, they must go to the library to take some notes.
The phrase 'compulsory' is incorrectly used; 'must' is the correct modal verb. Also, 'take some notes of' is incomplete; 'take some notes' suffices. The sentence structure is improved for clarity.
