Take out "founded" altogether - you do not need found, and change "these" to "the"
(Are there any errors in the following sentences?)

"It is cold out" is proper spoken English.
"It is cold outside" is better written English.

All I did was make some tea.
You do not use the verbal infinitive "to ----" after a linking verb (am, is, are, was, were).

The first sentence founded should be found.
i. It is cold out.
ii. All I did was make some tea.

Hi MJ,
The best way to say them is...

"It is cold outside;" or, "It's cold outside."
"All I did was make some tea."

Cheers.

The first letters of both sentences should be capitalised and the word "to" should be removed from sentence ii.

i. should read " It is cold outside."

ii. should read " All I did was make some tea."


( found, not founded)

no, grammatically they are both correct...but you might want to eliminate the word 'to' in ii...but it is fine if you leave it in.
there is a problem with 'any errors founded in these sentences'---should be 'any errors found in these sentences'

on ii, you don't need the 'to.' it can just be 'all i did was make some tea.'
