True.

Four spelling errors, plus the claim that there are five mistakes.

I'm counting five spelling errors, ("Ther", "arh", "im" and two mistakes in "semtennce"), so the claim that there are five mistakes is true, thus I'm getting the same answer of "True" but for a different reason.

We both agree there are four mis-spelled words. I usually only count each of those as one mistake per word, but either way, it doesn't change the answer to the problem.

Actually, it does. If the claim 'there is five mistakes' is a mistake, then by definition, there cannot be five mistakes. If spelling mistakes were counted as you do it, this would be an impossible scenario.

Still, you got the right answer, and that's what counts, right? :)

if there are five mistakes, that means that the sentance is true, then that means it is not a mistake

no, it means you should check your spelling with the word "sentance" in your comment, for it is sentence not sentance
