I'll send this to our Spanish expert, SraJMcGin.

Answer 2

Perhaps your teacher had the wrong "key" to correct what you turned in? It would have been easier on these old eyes, if your answers had been WITH the items, but I have also done your homework, and out of 20 answers, you only missed 4!

In part 1, #3 requires the tilde on pequeños and #10 requires the accent mark on simpáticas. But the number and gender were correct for each one.

In part 2, #2 requires the accent mark and spelling change of z to c in los tápices and #10 requires the accent mark and not the i but e in los exámenes.

If you need the rule for written accent marks, there must ALWAYS be an accent mark on the 3rd from the end syllable, if you want to hear it. The spelling change is that a z, followed by e (as in the plural) changes to c = lápices is another example.

I would say you have done well!
