Iā€™d like to elaborate a little bit. Sandals and flip-flops really mean the same thing in some contexts. Flip-flops is sort of slang for sandals. Flip-flops are basically named after the sound they make. ā€œFlip-Flopā€ with every step.

But this sentence is wrongā€¦ Remove ā€˜Theā€™ before summer

No, the phrase ā€˜in the summerā€™ is perfect English.

I read that in the summer is used for particular summer and for typical summer we use in summer

In summer refers to the season in general. In the summer may also do so, but it can also refer to a particular summer. So, the sentence is perfectly correct as @Alan wrote it.

Hi Amit_Kumar,

Exactly as pointed out by Alan. Reread that screenshot message. I donā€™t think it necessary for me to explain it to you again. Alanā€™s explanation is very good.
