Can you rephrase my statements?

My dear and respected teachers,

1 : "I'm a little bit impudent becuase I don't often greet my friends in private but if I ever do...appreciate it If you don't...I will never greet again"?

2 : "I execrate those people who abandon their parents when they have grown up"?

Hello teachers, check if the above statements are correct and if you have time.Please rephrase them by using excellent and more difficult words.Only if you have time otherwise just correct them, thanks in advance.

I really didn't understand your first sentence. The word "impudent" means that you are loud, brash, bold and cocky while being impolite. It means to "have an attitude" and does not really fit with "not greeting friends".

  • Maybe "uncouth" or "rude" is better - these mean not civil or impolite.
  • I'm a little uncouth because I don't often greet my friends.
