Tengo vientes años

I was marked as incorrect for not capitalizing the first letter in the sentence. Are the quizzes scored that harshly? I realize that sentences begin with upper case letters, just didn’t expect on these less than formal settings to be scored on case sensitivity.

In Spanish, days of the week, month-names and nationalities are spelled starting with small letters [unlike in English] - so the Kwiziq marking-process is set up to recognise and distinguish them.
