Nickel:

How about if you translate from Spanish to English?

Try short sentences from a novel and post here the original in Spanish and your version in English.

There are many errors in your paragraph-the kind that could give rise to misunderstanding.. Could you please give the English for this so we can see what it is all about? You don't have to post an entirely new question, just edit your present question.

I don't know if you are just in too much of a hurry or if you have problems with a phone and predictive text.

For English learners this is how it should be:

How many dogs can one man own? The man down the street, has 23 dogs. The dog breed the man owns is called Newfoundland . The Canadian dog weighs around 150 to 200 pounds and was bred to pull carts and herd animals. However, this lovely dog's attitude makes it good for watching young children and because of this the Newfoundland or Newf for short is also called the gentle giant. It is one of the top 5 biggest and friendliest dogs in America as chosen by many dog experts.
