There are are five things wrong with this sentence; only geniuses will be able to to spot all of the mitstakes 
2 are
1 wrong
one semi colon
one extra t.
missing full stop.
What do you mean by “1 wrong”?
Best answer
1. The word “are” is repeated.
2. The word “to” is repeated.
3. The word mitstakes is a misspelling of the word mistakes.
4. The sentence is missing a punctuation mark and should end with a period/full stop.
But the sentence states there are five problems, so where is the fifth mistake?
This is the source of the last problem: the sentence is a logical paradox!
5. As the sentence has only four mistakes, the statement the sentence has five mistakes is false, and that could be said to be the fifth mistake. However, once you add this error, the sentence then indeed has five total mistakes, which would then mean the sentence only has a total of four mistakes, all grammatical.
