Hi! I have completed this assignment but I felt like I was guessing throughout the whole thing. Since I could not underline I instead put 5 periods and the numbers instead; the answers are below the paragraph. Is this paragraph correct?
Complete the following paragraphs with the correct forms of the verb given in parenthesis:

I'll send this to our Spanish expert, SraJMcGin.
If you don't know how to make accent marks on the computer, I need to know 2 things: 1) do you have a Mac or a PC and 2) do you have Windows or not.
Ramírez has an accent because, according to the rules of punctuation, when a word ends in Z, the stress is on the last syllable, if there is no written accent (na-RIZ)
A few countries use the definite article and "la Argentina" is one.
1, medir is a stem-changing verb (e--->i), mido, plus centímetros has an accent mark
4. español (requires a tilde over the n) NOTE: IF I don't mention (2, 3,) that means they are correct!
María (with accent)
8. not "ellas" but singular "ella"
9. gramática (with accent)
En dos semanaS (you forgot the "s" on the noun)
11. interesting that the verb is "estar" because with "feliz" it is usually "ser)
12. sacarSE is a reflexive verb so the reflexive pronoun must be there = yo me saco
16. wrong subject as it is "ella" so the verb must be "va"
17. españoil (tilde over the n)
19. Ella y yo = nosotros decidimos (don't forget to separate tomar and la)
20. Because the paragraph has been in the Present Tense, I would not switch to the Present Perfect = suelo
I'll flag this in order to come back later to see if you have any questions. You have done quite well with the verbs.
Sra
Thank you so much!I am happy to know that my answers weren't as far off as I originally thought.
I have a PC with Windows 8. On Microsoft word I use the symbols to make accent marks but I'm not sure how to on my computer.
