@Liquinn3: The capitalized 'Á' was the OP's way of indicating his changes.

@Pasajero: The misspelled words are 'días', which is the noun that the adjective modifies, and 'ojalá'. Accented vowels are not the same as unaccented vowels. In other words, if a word has an accented vowel in it, it is incorrect to write the word without the accent. The accent mark in Spanish is very important. Always use it.
There's an 'Accents' drop-down menu just above where you type. You can use it to insert the special characters.

You mean it should be: "cuantos diOs?"

As you see above, I have used the accent mark in the word - ohalÁ and I don't understand why you still think there is a mispelling here?

Thank you

I'm sorry I cannot write the corrected sentence for you because here we help with your learning.

Rusty gave you the corrected version of the word "DiOs". Please view his post at the start of the second page. Then you only need to fix the punctuation and add an accent to the first word.

cuantos diOs

You need an accent in the first word. You're trying to ask "How many days?" in Spanish.

"Cuantos" is missing an accent on the third letter. Because you're asking a question, it should have an accent.

You have two errors in the word "dios".

The word "dios" means god in Spanish.

1) You need to put an accent on the second letter of the second word (dios). Also, your sentence needs gender agreement.

2) Your sentence needs to have question marks at the start and at the end.

Two errors. Check post #11 for the correct spelling of the exclamatory word.

One little thing to change back to the way you had it.
Good job!
