subject pronoun.

wrong verb tense (present, past, future)
wrong verb mode (subjunctive, indicative, conditional, imperative; participles and

stress?
"ortografía": spelling error
"anglicismo" : direct translation from English (restate this in Spanish).

You can have the right core word, but you're using the wrong derivation of
the word.
