× Yes, I do, because I better like to make photos and videos in foreign countries when I go there.
✓ Yes, I do, because I prefer to take photos and videos in foreign countries when I go there.
The phrase 'better like' is incorrect. Use the verb 'prefer' + infinitive ('to take') to express preference. Also use 'take photos' (common collocation) rather than 'make photos'. Replace 'make' with 'take' and 'better like' with 'prefer'. Suggestion: Use 'prefer to + verb' and collocations like 'take photos'.
× So, uh, I very like, uh, looking out the window when I travel by bus, but I prefer travel by car.
✓ So, I really like looking out the window when I travel by bus, but I prefer to travel by car.
'I very like' is not correct in English; use adverbs such as 'really' or 'very much' after the verb: 'I really like' or 'I like ... very much'. Also 'prefer travel' needs 'to' before the verb: 'prefer to travel'. Remove filler sounds for clarity. Suggestion: Use 'I really like' and 'prefer to + verb'.
× Yes, but I prefer walking and make photos when I go some some new places but when I in the car I also like to take photos but I prefer walk and make videos for my social media.
✓ Yes, but I prefer walking and taking photos when I visit new places. When I am in the car, I also like to take photos, but I prefer to walk and make videos for my social media.
Multiple issues: parallel structure requires matching verb forms ('prefer walking and taking photos' or 'prefer to walk and to take photos'). 'Go some some new places' should be 'visit new places' or 'go to new places'. 'When I in the car' needs the verb 'am'. 'Prefer walk' needs 'to': 'prefer to walk'. Use commas or split into sentences to avoid run-on sentences. Suggestion: Use parallel gerunds or infinitives consistently, include the verb 'am' after 'I', and replace 'go some new places' with 'visit new places'.
× I like the sea the most.
✓ I like the sea the most.
This sentence is grammatically correct. It uses the present simple appropriately to state a general preference. No change required.
× I like, uh, sea since my childhood and I also dreamed about becoming a pirate, uh, to be uh, more time in the water.
✓ I have liked the sea since my childhood, and I also dreamed about becoming a pirate to spend more time in the water.
Use present perfect 'have liked' with 'since' to show a preference continuing from the past to present. 'Like sea' needs the article 'the sea'. 'To be more time in the water' is ungrammatical; use 'to spend more time in the water'. Suggestion: Use 'have liked the sea since...' and 'to spend more time'.
