× I live in Ras Al Khaimah, Anand city for its stunning landscapes.
✓ I live in Ras Al Khaimah, in a city called Anand, because of its stunning landscapes.
The original sentence is awkward and missing prepositions and connectors. Use 'in' before place names and rephrase to show reason: 'in a city called Anand' and 'because of its stunning landscapes' clarifies meaning. Suggestion: include proper prepositions for locations and use conjunctions to show cause.
× Uh, it has the highest peak in the UAE, which is Japanese.
✓ It has the highest peak in the UAE, which is Jebel Jais.
'Japanese' is incorrect as an adjective here; likely the intended name is 'Jebel Jais' (a mountain). Use the proper noun for the peak. Also remove filler 'Uh' in formal responses. Suggestion: use correct proper names and avoid irrelevant adjectives.
× Uh, it also attracts lots of tourism.
✓ It also attracts a lot of tourists.
'Lots of tourism' is unnatural; 'a lot of tourists' or 'a lot of tourism' could work, but 'a lot of tourists' is clearer. Use countable noun 'tourists' with 'a lot of'. Suggestion: choose correct collocation: 'attract tourists' rather than 'attract tourism'.
× Uh, I live in it and I'm so adapted to it.
✓ I live there and I am very used to it.
Using 'in it' is awkward for towns; 'there' is correct. 'Adapted to it' is grammatical but 'used to it' is more natural in this context. Also avoid filler 'Uh'. Suggestion: use 'there' for places and prefer 'used to' to express familiarity.
× I belong to it so much and I love it.
✓ I feel a strong connection to it and I love it.
'Belong to it so much' is non-native phrasing. Use 'feel a strong connection to' or 'I feel I belong there' for natural expression. Suggestion: rephrase to 'I feel a strong connection to it' or 'I feel I belong there'.
× It's a well known city for its stunning landscapes, it has the highest peak in the UAE which is double DS and it attracts a lot of tourists every year.
✓ It's a well-known city known for its stunning landscapes; it has the highest peak in the UAE, Jebel Jais, and it attracts many tourists every year.
Combine clauses with correct punctuation; use hyphen in 'well-known'. 'Double DS' is unclear—replace with the peak name 'Jebel Jais' if intended. Use 'many tourists' rather than 'a lot of tourists every year' for conciseness. Suggestion: Use correct punctuation, hyphenate compound adjectives, and use precise names.
× I used to live here from a really early age.
✓ I have lived here since a very early age.
'Used to live' implies you no longer live there. The question asks how long you have lived there, so present perfect 'have lived...since' is appropriate. Also use 'since a very early age' rather than 'from a really early age'. Suggestion: use present perfect for actions continuing to the present: 'I have lived here since I was very young.'
× I was about between 8:00 to nine years old.
✓ I was about eight or nine years old.
The phrase mixes time notation with age and uses incorrect prepositions. Use 'about eight or nine years old' or 'between eight and nine years old'. Suggestion: use 'about eight or nine' or 'between eight and nine' for age ranges.
× Yes, because there is lots of entertaining places uh, that young people can go and have fun with their friends because at this age, uh, they need to.
✓ Yes, because there are lots of entertaining places that young people can go to and have fun with their friends, because at that age they need to.
Subject-verb agreement: 'there is lots of entertaining places' is wrong; with plural 'places' use 'there are'. Also add 'to' after 'go'. Remove redundant fillers and correct 'at this age' to 'at that age' for reference. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement with 'there are' for plural nouns and include 'go to' for movement verbs.
× To entertain themselves and to go outside and hang out with their friends.
✓ They need to entertain themselves, go outside, and hang out with their friends.
This fragment lacks a subject and is a sentence fragment. Combine it with the previous sentence or restructure into a complete sentence with subject and verbs in parallel form. Suggestion: use parallel structure and include the subject: 'they need to entertain themselves, go outside, and hang out with their friends.'
× So yeah, it offers places.
✓ So yes, the town offers many places for recreation.
'It offers places' is vague and abrupt. Clarify what 'places' refers to and use 'yes' instead of 'yeah' in formal responses. Suggestion: be specific: 'the town offers many places for recreation' or 'it offers many entertainment venues.'
