Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Assuming you are female, be sure to capitalize certain words in English! (Japanese, Canadian, Richmond.)

#2 = at the university = accent = université and accent grave on à

#3 = the trend is to not use ¡a with habiter = J'habite Richmond.

#4 = écouter = the words that require accent marks are considered incorrect without them!

Good job! If you need to learn how to make accent marks on a computer, let us know if you have a PC or MAC, Windows or not.

your sentences are correct but for a better translation:
je suis japonais(e) et je suis aussi canadien(ne)
j'étudie à l'université
j'habite Richmond, une ville du canada
j'aime écouter de la musique moderne

BON! Yes, much better word order. Just be sure to capitalize the first letter of each new sentence and the word "Canada."
