error_type: Subject-Verb Agreement Error
error_severity: 5
error_description: ① Subject-Verb Agreement Error: Based on the sentence meaning, the subject 〈he〉 is third-person singular, so according to the subject-verb agreement principle, the verb 〈watch〉 should be changed to the third-person singular form 『watches』; ② Noun Number Error: Based on the sentence meaning, the intention is to express "watching soccer matches", referring to matches in general, not a specific one, so the singular form 〈match〉 needs to be changed to the plural form 『matches』; ③ Spelling Error: According to the sentence meaning, the intended expression is "instead of", therefore 〈instand〉 is a misspelling of 『instead』 and needs to be corrected to 『instead』 for clarity; ④ Preposition Error: According to English usage, the transitional phrase "instead of" should be used, requiring the addition of the preposition 『of』 to form the correct structure; ⑤ Nonfinite Verb Form Error: According to English grammar rules, the preposition 『of』 should be followed by the gerund form of the nonfinite verb, so 〈play〉 needs to be changed to 『playing』.

error_sentence: One is Dave, the other is Mike.
correct_sentence: One is Dave, and the other is Mike.

error_type: Conjunction Error
error_severity: 3
error_description: Conjunction Error: In the original compound sentence, both 〈One is Dave〉 and 〈the other is Mike〉 have independent subject-verb structures and can stand as separate sentences. According to the meaning, the coordinating conjunction 『and』 needs to be added to make the sentence structure complete.

error_sentence: He doesn't like play baseball.
correct_sentence: He doesn't like to play baseball.
correction: to
error_type: Nonfinite Verb Form Error
error_severity: 3
error_description: Nonfinite Verb Form Error: According to English grammar rules, the verb 〈like〉 should be followed by the infinitive form of the nonfinite verb as the object, requiring the addition of 『to』 to form the 'like to do' structure, thus adding 『to』 makes the grammar correct.

error_sentence: Mike like basketball.
correct_sentence: Mike likes basketball.
error: like
correction: likes
error_type: Subject-Verb Agreement Error
error_severity: 3
error_description: Subject-Verb Agreement Error: According to the original sentence, the subject 〈Mike〉 is third-person singular, therefore the verb 〈like〉 should also be changed to the third-person singular form 『likes』 to comply with the subject-verb agreement principle.
