7. Sushila is extremely a lazy girl.

8. When you leaving?
When would you be leaving?

Pick four of the sentences and explain how it is different from standard written English.
They two very good friends - Here we can see that it is missing a verb, "are". As well as it sounds odd to say "they two".

When you leaving? - Again we can see that a verb is missing "are", or as I also have translated it "would + be".


Sushila is extremely a lazy girl. - Here the sentence structure is wrong: "a" should be in front of "extremely" so that it says: "is an extremely".


Her jewelleries were stolen. - In this sentence, the word "jewelry" is written in a plural tense, which does not exist.
