× I live in Ho Chi Minh City, so close to me.
✓ I live in Ho Chi Minh City, so it is close to me.
The original sentence omits a subject for the clause 'so close to me.' Use 'it is' to refer to the city (or the place) and form a complete clause. Suggestion: include a clear subject and verb (e.g., 'it is close to me').
× Have uh, many Tom buildings.
✓ There are many tall buildings.
The original fragment lacks a proper subject and verb and contains mispronounced words. Use the 'there be' construction to state existence: 'There are many tall buildings.' Also correct 'Tom' to 'tall.'
× There's are a few, umm, apartments in my neighborhood.
✓ There are a few apartments in my neighborhood.
The phrase incorrectly combines 'There's' and 'are.' Use only 'There are' for plural 'apartments.' Remove contraction redundancy. Ensure subject-verb agreement for plural noun.
× Uh, official office workers and uh, taught us skyscaper, so yes.
✓ There are office workers and tall skyscrapers, so yes.
The original is unclear and uses incorrect pronouns and verbs ('taught us'). Rephrase to clearly state what exists: 'There are office workers and tall skyscrapers.' Use 'there are' for existence and correct adjective 'tall' and noun 'skyscrapers.'
× I, I also love take photos of building, especially from the windows.
✓ I also love taking photos of buildings, especially from windows.
After 'love' when referring to a general activity, use the gerund 'taking.' Also pluralize 'buildings' for general reference and remove the article before 'windows' when speaking generally.
× I also take photos from window, uh, when I see, uh, beautiful scenery yeah.
✓ I also take photos from windows when I see beautiful scenery.
Use plural 'windows' for general situations and place the prepositional phrase without extra commas. 'From window' is incorrect; use 'from windows' or 'from a window' depending on context.
× I love, uh, natural, uh, scenery, so I don't really choose uh, toy building to visit.
✓ I love natural scenery, so I don't usually choose to visit buildings.
The sentence has disfluent fillers and the phrase 'toy building' is incorrect. 'Don't really choose to visit buildings' is clearer; 'usually' better conveys frequency. Remove filler words for fluency.
× I just want to visit on uh, a House of a garden or uh, in the beach.
✓ I just want to visit a house with a garden or go to the beach.
Prepositions are incorrect: use 'a house with a garden' to show possession and 'go to the beach' rather than 'in the beach.' Also correct capitalization and articles.
× If I work, uh, I want to, uh, work at uh, Tom buildings because it's uh, convenient, uh,
✓ If I work, I would like to work in tall buildings because it's convenient.
Use 'would like' for a hypothetical preference and use 'in tall buildings' rather than 'at Tom buildings.' Also correct 'Tom' to 'tall.' Use 'in' for working inside a building. Remove fillers for clarity.
× but I, when I live in family, I want to live in a house for a week, a garden, umm, yes.
✓ But when I live with my family, I want to live in a house with a garden for a while.
'Live in family' is incorrect; use 'live with my family.' 'A house for a week, a garden' is awkward; combine into 'a house with a garden for a while.' This clarifies duration and relationship and uses correct prepositions and noun phrases.
