Did I make up my sentences correctly? Are there any mistakes? 1. I bit off more than I could chew when I tried to learn English in two years. 2. He was talking and talking about his numerous victories but I took every his word with a grain of salt. 3. Please, rephrase your tangled question in order to gain a clear answer.

Your first sentence is perfect! :) For number 2, simply delete the word “his” For number 3, I would say “Please, rephrase your question so that I may better understand. ( This is more formal...a more casual phrase would be in the form of a question...”Could you please rephrase your question? I’m afraid I don’t understand.” Hope that helps you—best wishes:)

1. better to say "I tried to bite off...when I decided to...". That expression usually goes with "try". 2. ...but I took his every word... - just the word order. 3. Could you/please rephrase your (tangled - too formal, too "книжно") if you want me to answer. Could you ask that question with simpler words? Could you ask that in a simpler way? Or if you want to use all the same words you'd used it'd be "Please, rephrase your tangled question if you want a clear answer". What you wrote is grammatically correct, only is too formal/a bit unnatural. Take care and good luck! You're awesome!
