× I have lots of food that I am liked, but my favorite food is the French fries because I love to eat French fries.
✓ I like many foods, but my favorite is French fries because I love to eat them.
The original uses incorrect pronoun structure 'I am liked' and unnecessary article 'the' before 'French fries'. Use 'I like' for present preference and 'them' to refer back to the plural noun. Also use 'many foods' instead of 'lots of food' for countable variety. Suggestion: Say 'I like many foods' and use 'them' for plural objects.
× Since my childhood, I gained my mother told me that you are love of potatoes.
✓ Since my childhood, my mother told me that I love potatoes.
The original mixes tenses and uses incorrect pronouns 'you are love of potatoes' and wrong verb 'gained'. Use simple past 'told' for the action and correct pronoun 'I' for the person who loves potatoes. 'Since my childhood' with 'my mother told me' is acceptable if the telling happened in the past; if continual, use present perfect: 'my mother has told me'. Suggestion: Use 'my mother told me' or 'my mother has told me' and 'I love potatoes'.
× I have lots of food that I am liked, but my favorite food is the French fries because I love to eat French fries.
✓ I like many foods, but my favorite is French fries because I love to eat them.
'Lots of food' sounds uncountable and awkward when referring to different kinds; use 'many foods' or 'a lot of foods'. Also avoid repeating 'French fries' twice; use pronoun 'them'. Suggestion: Use 'many foods' or 'a lot of different foods'.
× So, uh, Pakistani food, uh, when I, when I was in, uh, I like Pakistani food so much because it has a great taste of spices and like the, the red spice and the white spice, all of that.
✓ When I was young, I liked Pakistani food a lot because it has great spices, both red and white, and many flavors.
The sentence mixes present 'I like' with past context 'when I was'. Use past tense 'liked' to match 'when I was young'. Also refine 'taste of spices' to 'has great spices' and remove filler words. 'Red spice and the white spice' is unclear; say 'red and white spices' or 'various spices'. Suggestion: Align tense with time reference and use clearer phrasing for spices.
× For example, chicken Curry has lots of spices and a gravy in it.
✓ For example, chicken curry has a lot of spices and a rich gravy.
Use lowercase 'curry' (not a proper noun), prefer 'a lot of spices' to 'lots of spices' for formal speech, and 'a rich gravy' is more natural than 'a gravy in it'. Suggestion: Use natural adjective order: 'a rich gravy'.
× I loved it.
✓ I loved it.
This sentence is acceptable when referring to past preference. No grammatical change needed. Keep as past tense to match context.
× Yeah, it depends on the occasion. I definitely eat. When it was, uh, recently it was an eat. I used to eat, uh, meat because it's got eat where we can eat, eat the meat as well.
✓ Yes, it depends on the occasion. Recently, I used to eat more meat, because we could have meat at celebrations.
Original contains broken sentences and repetitions 'eat, eat' and unclear phrases 'it's got eat where we can eat'. Combine ideas into coherent sentences and use past tense 'used to eat' for past habitual actions. Clarify meaning: eating meat at celebrations. Suggestion: Remove filler words and repeat verbs; express the idea clearly.
× So in, in birthdays we can eat, uh, cakes.
✓ So on birthdays we can eat cakes.
Use preposition 'on' with 'birthdays' (see next item about prepositions) and remove filler words. 'Eat cakes' is fine; no article needed when speaking generally. Suggestion: Say 'on birthdays we eat cakes'.
× Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
✓ Has your favourite food changed since you were a child?
This is the examiner's question and is grammatically correct. No change required.
× When I was a child, I used to eat lots of, uh, fries, French fries.
✓ When I was a child, I used to eat a lot of French fries.
Use 'a lot of' rather than 'lots of' for clearer speech and avoid repeating 'fries, French fries'. Keep 'used to' for habitual past actions. Suggestion: Say 'I used to eat a lot of French fries'.
× But nowadays I love chicken karahi and, uh, chicken biryani because I love the subcontinental foods, uh, because it is very rich in their spices and has a very great and, uh, delicious gravy in it.
✓ But nowadays I love chicken karahi and chicken biryani because I enjoy subcontinental foods; they are very rich in spices and have delicious gravies.
Avoid repeating 'love' and remove fillers. 'Subcontinental foods' is plural, so use 'they are' not 'it is'. Use 'have delicious gravies' (plural) or 'has a delicious gravy' if referring to one dish. 'Very great and delicious' is redundant; use 'delicious' or 'rich and delicious'. Suggestion: Match subject and verb number and avoid redundant adjectives.
