I moved your thread to the 'Practice & Homework' forum in case this was homework. We don't want to do your homework for you. Mistakes have been highlighted and hints have been given.

Thanks!

Edit: What about number 3?

Rusty September 30, 2012 07:01 PM
No hay nada de malo en ella. Hiciste bien. :thumbsup:
There's nothing wrong with it. You did well. :thumbsup: (I just forgot to mark it. Sorry.)

When you think you have everything figured out, post again and we'll have another look.

There's still a few things I think I got wrong on 6 and 7, but it should be an improvement

5. A mí (the determiner isn't accented and it must agree in number with the noun that follows) amigos y a yo (prepositional pronoun needed, not a subject pronoun) nos gusta jugar al baloncesto.
6. A (missing prepositional pronoun) me gusta(verb ending needs to agree in number with the subject - hint: the subjects follow) mucho la pizza, las galletas, y las lasaña. (I marked the superfluous punctuation before - the article must agree in number with the noun)
7. A mí no me gusta(verb ending needs to agree in number with the subject - hint: the subjects follow) los (wrong number) maní y las (wrong number) mostaza (missing preposition) nada.

Improved, yes! I have remarked what was wrong and gave a few more hints. Ask questions about what you don't understand.

Good job! :)
Only one accent missing (word marked in blue), but you also have to correct what I marked in pink. ;)

I've marked what needs fixed in red.
I also placed this post in the other thread you already started on the same topic.

Whoops, I don't know why I spelled llamo wrong... Thanks!

Edit: I just want to make sure: I just looked up mas on google, and a site that I looked at said that "mas" means "more," and "más" means "but." Is this true?

Just the opposite. The accented word means 'more'. The unaccented word means 'but'.

You might also have a typo in the name you use in your Spanish class. ;)

Do you have any questions about the other corrections?

Ok, thanks. And no, I see what you mean with the other corrections (mostly just subject-verb agreement). But as for the name, that's how it was spelled on a list of names that my spanish teacher handed out... Is there another way to spell it?

Andrés is the way it is normally spelled.
