What I hate on a packed train

What I hate on a packed train is when I get off. There're so many people that we can't get off the train smoothly, yet some people never fail to strongly push us from the back as if they tell us to get off quickly. Some other people hit us with their bags and some other people clear the throats noisy, repeatedly to make the others move aside. I really get disgusted just seeing these people.

When I get off a train, I say loud, "Excuse me! I'm getting off!", then many people try to move aside to pass me through. When I say "Thank you" passing, many people quickly clear themselves on my way.

When I ignored what grandma said as a child, she said me, "Is your mouth an ornament? Go to a hospital right now and have your mouth and vowel got rid of by a doctor. Give them to children who haven't had their mouths and vowels since they were born." I feel sometimes I'm glad I had a strict grandma.

I think many of Japanese people tend to take bad behaviors not saying anything. These people are just cowards who can't speak out what they want to say.

I read today it'll be difficult to speak if you don't speak at all for a long time, because the vowel shrinks. As you get older, more clearly it'll stand out.

I thought it's vowel but it's wrong. Probably the vocal cord, the source of letting the voice out...?? Sorry I can't explain(>_<) Anyway thank you for the correction!

What I hate on aabout packed trains

Can't explain why, this just sounds better to me.

What I hate on aThe worst thing about packed trains is when I getgetting off.

another way of rephrasing the sentence that sounds a little better to me

There' are so many people that weus passengers can't get off the train smoothly, yet some people never fail to strongly push us from the backbehind as if they're telingl us to get off quickly.

I've never seen a native use "There're" even in informal text. "There're" is how we slur it in speech, but we never write it - in my experience. Adding "us" in front of "passengers" makes it more natural to say "we" and "us" later on.

Some other people hit us with their bags and some other peopleothers clear their throats noisy,ily and repeatedly to make the otherspeople move aside.

Sounds more natural without the repetition.

When I get off a train, I say loudly say, "Excuse me! I'm getting off!", t Then many people try to move aside to let me pass me through.

Sounds better without the "many".

WThen I say "Thank you" while passing, and many people quickly clear themselvesout onf my way.

"to clear out" isn't reflexive

WhenAs a child, whenever I ignored what my grandma said as a child, she said, she would say to me, "Is your mouth an ornament? Go to a hospital right now and have your mouth and vowel got rid ofs removed by a doctor. Give them to children who haven't had their mouths and vowels since they were born." I feel sSometimes I'm glad I had a strict grandma.

"tell someone something" or "say something to someone". If you don't want to say "my", you should capitalize "grandma". By "vowel" do you possibly mean tongue or voice box?

I think many of Japanese people tend to takolerate bad behaviors no without saying anything.

These people are just cowards who cawon't speak outay what they want to say.

Just a point on word choice. "Can't" implies that they do not posses the ability to speak out. "Won't" implies that they have the ability to say it, but will not say it because they are afraid, etc. So, I feel using "won't" pushes the point you made about them being cowards a little more.

I read today it'll becomes difficult to speak if you don't speak at all for a long time, because the vowel shrinks.

As you get older, more clearly it'll stand ouit'll become more apparent.

Well done! I've had the fortune of never being on a crowded train. I've seen all those pictures of trains in India and Japan. I could never imagine riding those. I definitely don't envy you. Nice long story, keep it up!

Yeah I think you mean the "voice box". Anatomically its made of a bunch of chords called "vocal chords". We don't really refer to the vocal chords unless you're a singer or studying anatomy, we just use "voice box". If you said "vocal chords" instead of "voice box" it would sound a lot more gory! XD Keep it up!

I'm not sure what you mean by vowel. Also, I'm not sure what it means to give mouths to children who haven't had mouths since they were born. Perhaps this is an expression that doesn't translate to English.
