Dobrý den, mohl by mi prosím někdo zkontrolovat, zda li moje věty mají hlavu a patu a když tak napsat, jak by to mělo být správně. Děkuji

The British singer was born on 25 March 1947 in London.

He studied at the Royal Academy of Music in New York.

Elton earned a composing ballads for singers, but then decided to write for myself.

A real musical career began with lyricist Bernie Taupin. With him he composed beautiful songs.

The singer is known for hits Rocket Man and Your Song from the early 70 years, but his professional career has lasted more than 40 years.

Elton is also known for extravagant clothing and personal life publicly solved.

Já nejsem žádný velký angličtinář, ale napíšu pár poznámek o tom co se mi nezdá.

"Also he received..." Protože anglická věta musí obsahovat podmět.
Pak už tam nemusí být to "his" "...an OBE for humanitarian projects..."
Jedna faktická poznámka, on sice tu Royal Academy studoval, ale nedostudoval.
Tady to píšou nahoře vedle fotky:
www.thebiographychannel.co.uk/biographies/elton-john.html
A taky není ta škola v New Yorku, ale v Londýně.
Napsal bych něco jako: He studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London, but he left the school just before graduation.

"Elton earned a composing ballads" je divné. "Earned" se používá ve významu "získal". Buď se tím myslí peníze, nebo třeba reputace. Hodilo by se tam:
Elton started as a composer of ballads for another singers,...
nebo
Elton begun (minulý čas od begin) to compose ballad for another singers,...

"...but then decided to write for myself." tam musí být ...for himself.

"A real musical" jestli tam ten člen má být si nejsem jistý.
"with lyricist Bernie Taupin." před označení profese dáváme člen "with a lyricist..."

"Elton is also known for extravagant clothing " dal bych tam "an extravagant clothing"
nebo ještě lépe "his extravagant clothing"

" and personal life publicly solved." To vlastně nechápu jestli chceš říct, že je Elton znám tím, že mluví veřejně o svém soukromém životě, nebo že je Eltonův život veřejnosti dobře znám.
Nenapadá mě jak to napsat nějak hezky, ale rozhodně tam nepatří slovo "solved". O něčím životě můžeme třeba "discuss about", nebo "talk about", ale ne "solve".

Diana nebyla královna, ale princezna z Walesu: "Diana, Princess of Wales"

"Can you feel the love tonight from the animated film" minimálně bych vrazil za tonight čárku.

"Modern song is Sacrifice from the 1995." dal bych tam "One of his modern songs is Sacrifice" nebo "One of his later song is..."

"Elton is on the Hollywood Walk of Fame" on tam není fyzicky, má tam jenom hvězdu. "Elton has a star on ..." nebo "Elton has achieved a star on ..." nebo "One of the stars of the ...of Fame is named after him".

"and his waxwork at London's Madame Tussaud's collection." dal bych tam "and a waxwork (nebo wax figure) of him is at London..." nebo "and there exists a wax figure of him at London..."

"His concerts end when instrumental song on piano - Song for Guy" Tak tu větu jsem vůbec nepochopil.
