× Yes I do, I enjoy roses for my new clothes and gadgets and is a fun way to spend my free time on weekends with friends.
✓ Yes, I do. I enjoy shopping for new clothes and gadgets; it is a fun way to spend my free time on weekends with friends.
The original sentence has several issues: 'roses' is incorrect word choice (should be 'shopping'), the clause 'and is a fun way' lacks a subject and the form 'is' does not agree with an implied subject. This fits 'sentence structure' and 'verb' errors. Suggestion: replace 'roses' with 'shopping', split into two sentences or use a semicolon, and include an explicit subject 'it' before 'is'. Also add commas for clarity.
× Always I like to check different online platforms to make sure I'm getting the best deal and not overpaying for the exact same item.
✓ I always like to check different online platforms to make sure I'm getting the best deal and not overpaying for the exact same item.
The adverb 'always' should be placed before the main verb for natural English word order; placing it at the beginning is awkward. This is an 'incorrect adverb placement' and 'sentence structure' issue. Suggestion: move 'always' after the subject 'I'.
× Sometimes, especially when there are too many SIM similar options, I tend to overtake the feeders and quality which makes decision making quite time consuming.
✓ Sometimes, especially when there are too many similar options, I tend to focus on minor features and quality, which makes decision-making quite time-consuming.
This sentence contains wrong word choices ('SIM', 'overtake the feeders') and punctuation/structure problems. These are 'sentence structure' and 'incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs' issues. Suggestion: replace 'SIM similar' with 'similar', change the garbled phrase to 'focus on minor features', add commas, hyphenate 'decision-making' and 'time-consuming'.
× Not necessarily why higher price often mean better quality or renting many affordable products offering great value and perform chefs as well.
✓ Not necessarily. A higher price does not always mean better quality, and many affordable products can offer great value and perform well too.
The original is fragmented and has subject-verb agreement errors ('price... mean'), incorrect connectors ('why'), and poor word choice ('perform chefs'). These are 'sentence structure', 'third person singular issue', and 'incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs' problems. Suggestion: separate into sentences, use 'does not always mean', use 'perform well', and use 'too' or 'as well' at the end.
