A common mistake I see English learners make is that when they

want to be friends with you they say…
“can I make friends with you?” ❌
This doesn’t make sense.

Therefore you need to change the “make” to “be”
So now the sentence is…
“can I be friends with you?” ✅

Hope this helps 😋

    中国的姐妹看：请大家不要再这个软件上再胡乱讲话什么的了，我们中国人是有素质的，大家也很团结，但是这是一个用来交流学习的一个平台，希望大家可以多学习一些知识，不是用来做一些无用的东西的，你可以交朋友，但是不要随意辱骂他人，别人不愿意做的事情不要强求，也不要骂人，这个不是处对象的应用，是用来学习的，不能把这种形象呈现给外国人吧，他们又会怎么看我们呢？
