  1. "i was influenced by my dad'

    Rest of all seem to be correct..


  2. They're technically correct, but some are awkward.

    For the second, don't start the second sentence with "I love" again. You could say, "My dad has always loved them, which influenced me."

    For the third you could say, "I blow out my candles"

    And for the last you could say, "I'm trying to not get caught."

  3. During my favorite classes - CORRECT

    I love Ginebra, THEY ARE one of my favorite PBA teams. I love them because i was influenced by my dad. (influenced not influence)

    I blow out my candles every 16th of April. OR, Every year, on the 16th of April, i blow out my candles. (yes, the OUT was misplaced.

    I'm trying not to GET caught.

    They are all understandable, however i have corrected them for you!

  4. Influenced not influence (but I'm assuming that one's just a typo). The OUT is misplaced as you have split the verb BLOW OUT. It should read "I blow out my candles every 16th of April".  

  5. For your questions, all are correct. It should be 'influenced', not 'influence', but that was not one of your questions.

    The false 'corrections' seem to center on on the candles and being caught.

    'Blow out' is what's called a phrasal verb. The 'out' is not a preposition, but a part of the verb. There is no rule anywhere that says that you cannot separate the parts of a phrasal verb.

    He blew out the candles.

    He blew the candles out.

    Both totally correct grammar.

    I'm trying not to be caught.

    There's just nothing wrong with this. The construction is present progressive tense  + negative + passive infinitive. That's just good English.

  6. not only grammar but also vocabulary

    they are correct

  7. They are all correct.
