That's for sure, (Your corrections).
Recuerda que el verbo precede al sujeto cuando haces una pregunta en inglés:
¿Está bien mi texto? ¿Mi texto está bien?
Are my words good/OK? Is my wording good/OK?
Is my sentence OK? Is my sentence formed correctly?
Is everything I said OK?

(No suena bien decir text en la conversación típica. Más bien es una palabra que se usa en la informática.)

Ok. Is everythings I said ok.

Are my words ok.


I will study your sentences, Rusty

Sometime, I feel that my English need learn more words and more practice still.

But, I'm pleased with you for your help to me.
