Is it a correct sentence?

There are very common questions about the use of the verb in English. 

For example:

Q. 1 Is it a correct sentence, "She always pay good heed to her studies." ?

Answer: No. It's not correct sentence. Here you have to add 's' with first form of the verb. It is used in simple present tense.  The correct is, "She always pays heed to her studies.

More examples:

  • She usually speaks loudly.H
  • He plays cricket daily.
  • She makes a noise in class.

Q.2 Which one is correct: ‘we are very greatful to you for your help’ or 'we are extremely grateful'?
Answer: No. The spelling of 'greatful' is incorrect. The correct is, 'grateful'. So,
We are very grateful to you for your help.
Second one is correct:
We are extremely grateful to you for your help.
Both 'very and extremely ' are adverbs and synonyms to each other.

Q.3 Is it correct to say, "I wake up always early."?
Answer: Verb is correctly used, but placement of adverbs, 'always' wrong. The correct is 
I always wake up early

Q.4 Is it correct to say, "My sister frequently listen music."?
Answer: No. There is missing a preposition of listen, 'to' , and an addition of 's' with the main verb. The correct is:
My sister frequently listens to music. 

Q.5 Is it correct to say, "they sometimes play to videos games together on weekends."?
Answer: No. There's no need to add, 'to' before 'video', and omit 's' with it. The correct sentence is:
They sometimes play video games together on weekends.
