× 'Usually I'll prefer happy music because it release our stress and relax our mind.'
✓ 'I usually prefer happy music because it releases our stress and relaxes our minds.'
'Usually' should come before the subject and auxiliary for natural word order: 'I usually prefer'. 'Prefer' expresses a general habit, so simple present is appropriate rather than 'I'll prefer' (future). 'Release' and 'relax' must agree with the singular subject 'it' (music), so use third person singular verbs 'releases' and 'relaxes'. 'Mind' should be plural 'minds' when referring generically to people.'},{
× 'Whenever we do exercise it motivate us.'
✓ 'Whenever we exercise, it motivates us.'
'Do exercise' is unnecessary; use the verb 'exercise' for the activity. The singular subject 'it' (music) requires the third person singular verb 'motivates'. Add a comma after the subordinate clause for clarity.'
× 'But I use sad song most because it is attached with our emotions.'
✓ 'But I use sad songs most often because they are associated with our emotions.'
'Sad song' should be plural 'sad songs' for a general statement. 'Most' is better expressed as 'most often'. 'Is attached with' is incorrect collocation; use 'are associated with' to show emotional connection. Use 'they' and 'are' to match the plural subject.'
× 'Yes definitely happy music feels my mood refreshed and relaxed.'
✓ 'Yes, definitely. Happy music makes me feel refreshed and relaxed.'
'Feels my mood refreshed' is ungrammatical: music does not 'feel' someone's mood; it 'makes me feel'. Use 'makes me feel refreshed and relaxed' with the verb 'make' plus object and adjective. Add commas for natural speech pauses.'
× 'When I am tired from hectic my hectic schedule, it fills me very happy and uplift my moment sad to a cheerful it feels peaceful etcetera.'
✓ 'When I am tired from my hectic schedule, it makes me very happy and lifts my mood from sad to cheerful; it feels peaceful.'
'Tired from hectic my hectic schedule' has word order problems; correct phrase is 'tired from my hectic schedule'. 'It fills me very happy' is incorrect—use 'it makes me very happy'. 'Uplift my moment sad to a cheerful' is ungrammatical; use 'lifts my mood from sad to cheerful'. Use consistent verbs and punctuation to separate ideas. 'Etcetera' is unnecessary in a short spoken answer and sounds vague; remove it.'
