How many errors are there?

How, may I ask, is that a paradox?

There are 4 errors: "Their", "errers", "dis", "sentince". So the 5 is an error. So there are 5 errors. So it's correct. So there are 4 errors.

That's good.

The grandfather paradox is where a grandson goes back in time and kills his grandfather, meaning he was never born so he couldn't have traveled back in time and killed him

The bootstrap paradox is kinda similar I suppose
