× I really like buying shoes, always makes me happy.
✓ I really like buying shoes; it always makes me happy.
Subject-verb agreement and sentence structure: the original is a comma splice and omits a subject for 'always makes me happy.' Add 'it' as the subject and use a semicolon or period to join two independent clauses. Suggest using 'it always makes me happy' to be grammatically complete.
× I often go to shoe store to try on different style and pick the most comfortable or stylish pair.
✓ I often go to a shoe store to try on different styles and pick the most comfortable or stylish pair.
Incorrect use of articles and plural forms: 'shoe store' needs the article 'a'. 'Style' should be plural 'styles' when referring to different kinds. Also keep noun phrase agreement: 'pair' is singular and fine here. Use 'a shoe store' and 'different styles.'
× Usually one or twice a month my friend after notice my new shoe and we talk about them, we mess up being even more fun.
✓ Usually once or twice a month my friends notice my new shoes and we talk about them, which makes being together even more fun.
Singular/plural and sentence structure errors: use 'once' instead of 'one' for frequency expression, 'twice' is fine, and 'a month' placement. 'My friend' should be plural 'my friends' if talking about multiple people; 'shoe' should be plural 'shoes.' The original also has a comma splice and unclear phrasing ('we mess up being even more fun'). Use a relative clause 'which makes being together even more fun' or 'which makes it even more fun.'
× Yes, I often buy Zoo online because I don't always have to visit a brick and mortar Zoo model store and I already know my size so it's quick and convenient.
✓ Yes, I often buy from Zoo online because I don't always have to visit a brick-and-mortar Zoo model store, and I already know my size, so it's quick and convenient.
Modal/usage and punctuation: insert preposition 'from' after 'buy' to indicate the seller. 'Brick and mortar' should be hyphenated as 'brick-and-mortar' when used as a compound modifier. Add commas to separate clauses for clarity. Overall verb/modal usage is fine; this fixes collocation and punctuation.
× Occasionally a pair doesn't fit or look different in person so I have to return them, but overall online shopping saves me time.
✓ Occasionally a pair doesn't fit or looks different in person, so I have to return it, but overall online shopping saves me time.
Tense and subject-verb agreement: 'a pair' is singular, so use 'looks' not 'look.' Also keep pronoun agreement: refer back with singular 'it' rather than 'them.' The comma before 'so' improves readability.
× I usually buy shoes on one or two time a month and I said a month label just for clothing.
✓ I usually buy shoes once or twice a month, and I use 'a month' as a label just for clothing.
Tense/usage and phrasing: 'one or two time a month' is ungrammatical; use 'once or twice a month.' 'I said a month label' is unclear—replace with 'I use "a month" as a label.' Maintain present tense and clearer expression.
× I spend approximately a 1000 Vietnam Dong per month on shoe and clothes because I like to plan my expenses in advance.
✓ I spend approximately 1,000 Vietnam Dong per month on shoes and clothes because I like to plan my expenses in advance.
Quantifier and noun number: remove the extra article 'a' before the number and format number as '1,000.' 'Shoe' should be plural 'shoes' when paired with 'clothes.' Ensure consistent pluralization.
× When I was younger I liked fashionable so because they made me feel trendy and suit my age.
✓ When I was younger I liked fashionable shoes because they made me feel trendy and suited my age.
Tense consistency and word choice: 'liked fashionable so' is incorrect—use 'liked fashionable shoes.' 'Suit my age' should be past tense 'suited my age' to match 'When I was younger.' Keep verbs in past tense for that time frame.
× Now I prefer comfortable soup because they give better spots and more particular for walking and help me avoid foot pain.
✓ Now I prefer comfortable shoes because they provide better support and are more suitable for walking, and they help me avoid foot pain.
Incorrect word choice and adjective/adverb use: 'soup' is a wrong word for 'shoes.' 'Give better spots' should be 'provide better support.' 'More particular for walking' is unnatural—use 'more suitable for walking.' Also ensure plural agreement 'they' matches 'shoes.' Rearranged for clarity and natural collocation.
