"of the mountains" translated as "de montañas"

Hola Frank

Many thanks for your question. There’s a small grammatical issue in the question. The word "montañas" is plural, so it should be "de las montañas" instead of "del montañas".

The phrase "del montañas" would be incorrect because "del" is a contraction of "de" + "el", which is used for singular masculine nouns. Since "montañas" is plural and feminine, the correct phrase is "de las montañas". If you meant to say 'of mountains' without 'the', then "de montañas" would be correct.

Feliz finde
