1 The plumber said he'd stop by anytime between 10 and 12pm./somewhere between 10...

2 The two bad things about this apartment is its lighting. Its not bright at all, and that its on the 5th floor.

3 There are more cards that you need to avoid than cards that make you win. (is this ok, how would you say this?)

4 We all know how great her taste is /what great taste she has

5 Every time you use a bit of hot water the water tank heats up water to maximum capacity again so you have a full tank of hot water.

 She is so nice I don't care if she is possessive.



thanks

1 The plumber said he'd stop by anytime between 10 and 12pm./somewhere between 10... I'd prefer "sometime" to "anytime". It would be more appropriate to use "anytime" in order to give someone permission to come at whatever (any) time they choose.

2 The two bad things bad thing about this apartment is its lighting. Its It is/It's not bright at all, and that its it is/it's on the 5th floor. (Is being on the 5th floor supposed to have some sort of negative impact on the lighting?)

3 There are more cards that you need to avoid than cards that make you win. (is this ok, how would you say this?) OK in context. Sounds informal.

4 We all know how great her taste is /what great taste she has. OK

5 Every time you use a bit of hot water, the water heater tank heats up water fills to maximum capacity again so you have a full tank of hot water.

She is so nice (that) I don't care if she is possessive. OK, strikes me as informal
