What seems to be the problem with your child?

My daughter looks sick with a cough.
She also has a fever and is not feeling very well.
I took her temperature, and it was 39 degrees Celsius.
I think it might be due to the fact that she plays games until late every night and does not go to bed.

自然な表現

1. This is an ALTERNATIVE expression: because she stays up late playing games
2. Add "on time" to make the meaning of the sentence clear and complete.

It sounds like your daughter is really struggling with her health. Have you considered taking her to the doctor to make sure it's not something more serious?

We live next to the hospital, and it is easy to take her to the doctors. However her condition is not so serious, and we have some medicines for such a light illness.
If we taking her to the doctor, it will cost. We know the a litle expensive but good medicine to work for. We are going to try it.

自然な表現

We live next to the hospital, and it is easy to take her to the doctor. However, her condition is not so serious, and we have some medicine for such a mild illness. If we take her to the doctor, it will cost. We know a slightly expensive but good medicine that works. We are going to try it.

1. This is an ALTERNATIVE expression: "Our home is right by the hospital."
2. Use "doctor" to talk about only one doctor.
3. Add a comma after "however" because if it is at the beginning of a sentence, it needs a comma after it.
4. Use "medicine" because "medicine" is usually uncountable unless you are referring to different types of medicine.
5. Use "mild" because it is the appropriate adjective for "illness."
6. Use "take" because it is the correct present simple form.
7. Omit "the" because it is unnecessary here.
8. Use "slightly" because it is more appropriate for modifying adjectives.
9. Use "that works" because it is a relative clause used to describe the medicine.

It sounds like you have a good plan in place with the medicine you have. Do you usually use this medicine for similar symptoms, and how long does it usually take for her to feel better?

We have similar symptoms usually. In such cases we use this medicine, and we become better in one or two days. If we don't become better, we go to see a doctor.
It is very cold season, many of us catch a cold. When we catch a cold, we use the medicine Kakkonto, which is useful medicine in Japan. This medicine is expensive a little, but very useful. This medicine is well-known in Japan, and many people use this.

自然な表現

We usually have similar symptoms. In such cases, we use this medicine, and we get better in one or two days. If we don't get better, we go to see a doctor.
It is a very cold season; many of us catch a cold. When we catch a cold, we use the medicine Kakkonto, which is a useful medicine in Japan. This medicine is a little expensive, but very useful. This medicine is well-known in Japan, and many people use it.

1. Put "usually" after "we" because it is a better word order.
2. Add a comma after "cases" to separate the phrase "in such cases" from the main clause.
3, 4. Use "get" because it is more commonly used for recovery or improvement in health or condition.
5. Add the article "a" because "season" is singular and countable.
6. Use a semicolon because it is needed to separate two independent clauses that are closely related.
7. Add the article "a" because you're referring to one type of useful medicine.
8. Put "a little" before "expensive" because it is the correct word order.
9. This is an ALTERNATIVE expression: "effective."
10. Use "it," not "this," because "it" is the appropriate pronoun to use when referring back to something already mentioned.

It seems like Kakkonto is a reliable remedy for colds in the area where you live. I hope the medicine helps your daughter recover quickly. Is she getting enough rest?

I appreciate that you worried about my daughter's situation. Her face was gloomy in her sickness, however it was explicit the Kakkonto helped her recover soon. Of course she has enough rest everyday usually, because she has nap for two hours in the day time.

On the contrary I am afraid of she became her fat day by day. I think she should take exercise more.

自然な表現

I appreciate that you are worried about my daughter's situation. Her face was gloomy due to her sickness; however, it was explicit that Kakkonto helped her recover soon. Of course, she has enough rest every day because she takes a nap for two hours in the daytime.

On the contrary, I am afraid she is gaining weight day by day. I think she should exercise more.

1. Add "are" to mean to be concerned in the present moment.
2. Use "due to" because it is the appropriate expression when explaining the cause of something.
3. Use a semicolon because it is used to connect two independent clauses closely related in meaning.
4. Use "that" to introduce a noun clause that explains what was explicit.
5. This is an ALTERNATIVE expression: "quickly."
6. Add a comma after "of course" to separate the introductory phrase from the main clause.
7. Use "every day" because it is the correct spelling of the noun form, while "everyday" is an adjective.
8. Use "takes" and add "a" because the correct expression is "take a nap."
9. The correct spelling is "daytime" (one word).
10. Add a comma after "on the contrary" because a comma is necessary after introductory phrases like "on the contrary."
11. Omit "of" after "afraid" when you want to express fear about a situation or event. Use the structure "I am afraid [that] [subject] [verb]" or "I am afraid [subject] [verb]".
12. Use "is gaining weight" to describe an ongoing weight increase.
13. Omit "take" because "exercise" can be a noun or a verb, so when you're talking about the action of doing physical activity, you just use "exercise" as a verb.

I don't think you should worry much about her weight. Once she completely recovers, you may already advise her about losing weight. Don't you think?

My daughter has special needs, and her life is reverse of day and night. She doesn't go out daytime at all.As a result she became fatter and fatter.
It is not good for her health. I am afraid of her health near future. She is very selfish nature. She will not listen to my advise.

自然な表現

My daughter has special needs, and her life is the reverse of day and night. She doesn't go out during the daytime at all. As a result, she has become fatter and fatter. It is not good for her health. I am worried about her health in the near future. She has a very selfish nature. She will not listen to my advice.

1. Add "the" to refer to a specific concept.
2. Add "during the" because the noun "daytime" needs a preposition like "during" to function properly in this context, and "the" is added to refer to a specific, defined period of the day.
3. Add a comma after "as a result" to separate the phrase from the main clause.
4. This is an ALTERNATIVE expression: "She is putting on weight steadily."
5. Use "worried about" because this expression is the correct phrase for expressing concern about a situation or future outcome.
6. Add "in the" because "in the near future" is the proper expression to talk about something coming soon.
7. Use "has" because when talking about someone's personality traits or characteristics, we typically use "has" to show possession of that trait. Also, add "a" because the word "nature" is a countable noun in this context.
8. The correct spelling of the noun is "advice."
