'Noticias de español' doesn't mean 'Spanish news'. Spanish, in this case, is an adjective. Applying what you know about adjectives, how would you reword it?

I assume the adjective takes on the gender of the noun, therefore I add an "a" to the end of español. So.....
Leemos noticias española en linea.

Thanks for those! Ok, this is my first try. If I looked anything up, I noted it below.

Where are we going on Saturday? ¿Dondé vamos en sabado?
What time is it? ¿Que hora es?
I want to shower. Quiero ducho.
The ladies are watching a movie at the theater. Las mujeres están mirando un película en el cine. (I had to look up película)
How many people are there? Cuántos hay personas?
The second book is the best. El Segundo libro es el mucho bien. (I had to look up second, and was surprised that I knew that word!)
I love to go shopping. Me encanta ir comprando. (I think that is the word for love in this situation. McDonald's uses it for their "I'm Loving It" campaign )
I am hungry. Estoy hambre. Or is it "Tengo hambre." ?

Again, thanks!

It not only takes on the gender of the noun, but the number, too. Give it one more change and you've got it!

Leemos noticias españolas en linea. Is that right? So, "the white shirts" would be "las camisas blancas"?

[CrOtALiTo]

Yes it certainly correct.

Leemos noticias Españolas en linea.
Well done.

Where are we going on Saturday? ¿Dondé vamos en sabado?
¿Dónde vamos en el sabado?
Wrong accent on dónde. Always use direct articles with days of the week.

What time is it? ¿Que hora es?
¿Qué hora es?
Accent on interrogatives.

I want to shower. Quiero ducho.
Quiero ducha.
This isn't my first choice, but looking around, I believe it is a viable option. Ducha being the noun la ducha, the shower.
Quiero ducharme.
Generally, only follow conjugated verbs with infinitives. In this case, ducharse is reflexive, so change se to me.

The ladies are watching a movie at the theater. Las mujeres están mirando un película en el cine. (I had to look up película)
Las mujers están viendo una película en el cine.
I chose the verb ver mostly out of preference. That's not to say that mirar is wrong. However, you used un instead of una.

How many people are there? Cuántos hay personas?
¿Cuántas personas hay?
In this case, the interrogative should match gender. Also, I switched the structure around to a way that flows a little better.

The second book is the best. El Segundo libro es el mucho bien. (I had to look up second, and was surprised that I knew that word!)
El segundo libro es el mejor.
Capitalization and word choice.

I love to go shopping. Me encanta ir comprando. (I think that is the word for love in this situation. McDonald's uses it for their "I'm Loving It" campaign )
Me encanta ir de compras.
"ir de compras" is one of the basic idioms in Spanish. Glad you caught "me gusta" set up.

I am hungry. Estoy hambre. Or is it "Tengo hambre." ?
Tengo hambre.
I have hunger.

Good job! If anyone has any additional/different corrections--please tell! I'm still learning too, of course.

Nice corrections Brandon, I have a question about your correction of what I put in red. Do you mean like if it's following the ladies sentence? Because in general if it isn't you would use "Cuántos".

And I don't think that's viable for the "quiero ducha". I would use what you said, quiero ducharme, quiero ducha would go to "I want shower" which could mean you want to buy one too

Really good corrections though. I agree with using ver instead of mirar for that also.

Corrections above.

@wafflestomp: The adjective cuanto always matches the person and number of the noun it qualifies - personas, in this case. So, ¿Cuántas personas hay? is correct.
