A good community In VN are there any facilities for improving relations between neighbours? There are some but not very much facilities to build good neighbourly relations, and of course having a place to go and mingle with people your own age also gives a sense of community otherwise you might be isolated and sad, and I hope those facilities will be springing up more. I don’t really know, but it has one or two in my city, it’s everywhere you know. We normally organize annual fairground for citizens to socialize and build good relations with people nearby.

There are some, but not very many.  Of course, having a good place to go and mingle with people your own age creates a sense of community to keep you from feeling isolated and sad.  I hope more facilities will be springing up.

There are one or two of these facilities where I live.  The city normally organizes an annual fair for citizens to socialize and build good relations with people nearby.

"will be springing up more" --> you are using the future continuous tense. Which is perfect, BUT in this context you are saying 'i hope those facilities will do something", SO ---> just use simple future tense. You do not know if the facilities will continually 'spring up' in the future.

"it has one or two in my city" --> 'it' is singular, therefore because you say "one or two in my city" --> this is plural. Therefore use 'they' instead. 'they' is always plural.

"fairground" --> usually you can just say 'fair', as in "i went to the fair". If you say, "i went to the fairgrounds" --> this does not mean you attended the fair. It could just be a location you visit. In Brisbane, Australia we have the 'exhibition grounds' where we have a big fair once a year. BUT, the location is literally called 'the show grounds', so many people go to the 'show grounds' but not because of the fair.


Great job! If you have a question, feel free to ask :)

Hi Kim, I re-wrote your paragraph so it sounded more native to English. You did a good job in getting your idea across! The only confusing sentence is the one stating "I don't really know..." as you have differing and conflicting statements in the same sentence. I took a guess at what you meant when re-writing it. A specific feedback: "Fairground" refers to the physical place or location. "Fair" is the event that is taking place (at the fairground). I hope that helps!
