Could you plase check these sentences for me? Thank you.
1) She paid the gardener 300 Euros.

5) I went home in my mother's car.
All are fine.
You could also say, "She was sulking about the house because her dad said she couldn't go out with friends."
Absentmindedness is one word.
Certainly! Here are the corrections and explanations for each sentence:
1) She paid the gardener 300 Euros.
She always brags about her excellent school performances.
Explanation: Both sentences are grammatically correct. However, instead of using the word "boasts," which has a slightly negative connotation, it is more common to use "brags" in this context.
2) She jokes about my absent-mindedness.
She sulks about being left alone.
Explanation: The first sentence is correct. For the second sentence, "sulk about" is not a common phrase. Instead, you can use "sulk" followed by the reason for sulking. For example, "She sulks when she is left alone."
3) She is chatting about the weather.
She apologized to me for breaking the vase.
Explanation: Both sentences are grammatically correct. "Chatting about" indicates a conversation or discussion about the weather. "Apologized to me" conveys that she said sorry for breaking the vase.
4) She agreed to drive me home. She offered to drive me home.
Explanation: Both sentences are correct. "Agreed to" implies that she gave her consent to drive you home, while "offered to" indicates that she voluntarily proposed to do so.
5) I went home in my mother's car.
Explanation: The sentence is grammatically correct. It states that you traveled back to your home using your mother's car.
