× My hometown is Ruby Pasta, which is situated in the eastern side of Nepal.
✓ My hometown is Ruby Pasta, which is situated in the east of Nepal.
Use 'in the east of' or 'in eastern Nepal' instead of 'in the eastern side of'. 'Eastern' as an adjective requires a noun like 'Nepal' without 'side', or use 'east' as a noun with 'of'. This makes the prepositional phrase natural and idiomatic.
× The climate there is moderate, is not too hot in summer and usually bearable in winter.
✓ The climate there is moderate; it is not too hot in summer and is usually bearable in winter.
The original sentence lacks a subject for the second clause and omits a verb for parallel structure. Add 'it' and 'is' to maintain subject-verb structure and parallelism. Also using a semicolon or conjunction improves sentence flow.
× What I really like about my hometown is it's filled with green space and the people there are very kind.
✓ What I really like about my hometown is that it's filled with green spaces and the people there are very kind.
The clause after 'is' needs a conjunction 'that' to introduce a content clause. Also 'green space' should be plural 'green spaces' when referring to multiple areas. Adding 'that' makes the sentence grammatically complete.
× Actually I was born and raised there till I'm 16, so I I basically lived my half of my life there.
✓ Actually I was born and raised there until I was 16, so I basically lived half of my life there.
Tense consistency: use past tense 'was' with 'until I was 16' to match 'was born and raised'. Remove the duplicated 'I' and change 'my half of my life' to 'half of my life' to avoid redundancy. Use 'until' instead of 'till' for formality.
× Yes, it's good for young people to grow up in.
✓ Yes, it's a good place for young people to grow up in.
The verb 'good' needs a noun phrase complement; 'a good place' clarifies what 'it' refers to. This fixes the sentence structure and makes it natural.
× My hometown is it's quite far from a busy city area, but it's for the education and other big opportunities is not very quiet good for them.
✓ My hometown is quite far from a busy city area, but when it comes to education and other big opportunities, it is not very good for them.
Multiple errors: remove the unnecessary 'is' after 'is' and 'it's'; use a subordinating phrase 'when it comes to' to contrast aspects; replace 'quiet' with 'quite' and reposition 'for them' to clarify the referent. This restructuring corrects word order and improves clarity.
