In this forum, we show you where mistakes have been made so you have the opportunity to fix them on your own. This has the added benefit that you learn from your mistakes.

B. How much does this watch cost?
B. ()Cuanto cuesta el reloj?
(Opening punctuation needed)

C. I'm sorry.
C. Lo siento.

D. I don't understand this homework.
D. No entiendo la tarea.

E. Can I have 2 return tickets to Seville?
E. ()Quiero dos billete() () vuelve de Seville()
(The first word should be a polite form)
(There's a set way to say 'return' (BrE) or 'round-trip' (AmE) tickets in Spanish)

F. How much does it cost to send a postcard to Ireland?
F. ()Cuanto cuesta sale la carta de Irlanda?
(Wrong verb, wrong word for postcard, 'de' means from, not 'to')

G. Would you like to go to the cinema with me?
G. ()Quieres vas al cine conmigo?
(The 'verb' following a form of 'querer' is always the infinitive. )

H. Can I reserve a hotel room for 3 nights?
H. Quiero una habitacion por trés días por favor.
(Your English version is a question, but your translation is not, so it needs to be rewritten as a question.)

I. I can't go to the cinema with you.
I. No puedo voy al cine contigo.
(The 'verb' following a form of 'poder' is always the infinitive. )

J. I want to go home because it's raining.
J. Quiero voy a casa porque esta lluvia.
(The last two words either need to be a form of the present progressive, which is what it looks like you tried to write, or it can be changed to a single word-just the simple present tense of 'llover')
