18,987 Points1) There is a "Markdown Cheatsheet" link at the bottom of this page that shows you how to post code that is readable.
2) It does not look like you are terminating your if clause:
if (age)
not
if(age

12,171 Pointsyou exited the code after (age so you need to put the last peice ); on a new line so it would look like
if (age //insert exi. . . Try again. \n\n"
);

4,588 PointsI think you should simply add a closing bracket } at the very end of your java code. So instead of
console.printf("They are always %s %s. \n", adverb, verb);
}
you should try
console.printf("They are always %s %s. \n", adverb, verb);
} }
