1. His advice is always so convincinggreat.
or wonderful, good, awesome....
advice in itself can't be convincing. if it was, it would mean that the thing you were advised to do inadvertently also convinced you to do something else. which... is weird
you can deliver advice in a convincing way i suppose, but you can't really indicate that in this sentence format. you could say his advice was well-delivered or eloquent but those don't necessarily imply convince...ment...? that isn't a word lol i just can't think of how else to explain it.
Who told it to her?
not incorrect, but i think "who said that to her" or "who told her that" sound much more natural
6. Yesterday iI put my money here.
I is always capitalized - colloquially online it often isn't... i do that way too much... but i realised all of your other sentences only had "i" capitalized when it began a sentence, which goes for every letter, so i wasn't sure if you were aware
7. I consider that this place is quite suitable for our shop.
this means that you've found a building that you think would make a nice shop/store - if you mean you've found a good store/shop that you'd like to buy from, you mean to say "i consider this place quite suitable for our shopping"
"quite suitable" is in itself an adjective to describe this place, i'm not sure why we put it after the noun it describes in this format... but we do. also, i suppose including the word "that" could be grammatically correct, it just sounds awkward and you don't need it
9. The crew wereas ready to fulfill the captain's order.
full loses its second "L" because it's working like a prefix, but fill is still the main verb so it keeps its second L
also, although "crew" implies a group of many people, it is still grammatically singular. (like the words group, family, team...)
Your goods are made very badly.
this is what i would say i think because i'm american, but to be Completely Correct you should say "poorly" i think
but i just really like this phrasing because you're using the word "goods," meaning products, but it sounds like "good" the adjective, and then you immediately describe them as "bad" which is its total opposite.... haha.... i thought it was funny :,)
It is necessary need to sew new trousers for Nick.
this changes the meaning, but using "it is necessary" kind of implies things that are basic requirements in general. and this sounds like something specific that doesn't really NEED to happen.
to keep the meaning the same, you could say "Nick's new trousers need to be sewn."
alternatively, "it" here could be referring to something previous that I don't know since this is just a stand-alone sentence without context, and it could be referring to something that is required for sewing, like scissors or thread or something. in that case, the sentence as you wrote it would be totally correct with no changes necessary. that just isn't how i read it since i have no context for what "it" could be replacing, and the phrase "it is necessary" is a common impersonal expression
(if you don't know what i mean about "impersonal" : https://www.colanguage.com/english-impersonal-pronouns-it-there )
I have good blue cloth.
i wish i read this before correcting the previous sentence :) oh well...
you should put this sentence before the other one. so then i would know "it" means the blue fabric. you can only use a pronoun to replace a noun that has already been defined.
and i know cloth technically means the same thing, but most people would often use the word fabric instead. in my mind a cloth refers to just a small scrap of fabric. (maybe because of words like washcloth?) that isn't what the dictionary defines cloth as, but that's how i imagine it :v
