Well, I live in a residential neighbourhood in Richmond. It is a tiny apartment, I live with my husband . There are two bedrooms , a living room , two bathrooms and a open plan kitchen, which is where I spend most of my time.
Thanks for sharing your answer. The content is good, but there are some slight grammar points you may want to revise. Here is a corrected version of your answer:
“Well, I live in a residential neighbourhood in Richmond. It’s a tiny apartment that I share with my husband. We have two bedrooms, a living room, two bathrooms, and an open plan kitchen, which is where I spend most of my time.”
Please make sure you use the right prepositions. You should use ‘an’ before words that start with a vowel sound and ‘that’ to correctly link your clauses. Keep practicing – you’re doing really well.
Well, l live in a beautiful apartment in the heart of the sumgait. it is relatively modern and stylish apartment, which l stay with my family. there are 3 bedrooms, a living room and kitchen. l mostly spend my time in my bedroom.
Your answer is quite good, but there are a few minor corrections to be made:
“Well, I live in a beautiful apartment in the heart of Sumgait. It’s a relatively modern and stylish apartment where I stay with my family. There are 3 bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen. I mostly spend my time in my bedroom.”
Mistakes:
1. I’ve corrected your use of ‘l’ to ‘I’ which is a common grammatical requirement.
2. ‘Sumgait’ should have its initial letter capitalized as it’s a proper noun.
3. Use ‘where’ instead of ‘which’ when you are talking about the place where you live with your family.
Keep practicing!
