Go to new sprites
Clickt the box with a "T"
Now, type whatever you want! You can also change the font size and the font type.

I'm afraid you can't copy/paste into Scratch.  sad  Or at least, I never figured it out.  tongue  What you can do though, is paste the text into a program such as paint, save it as an image, and import it into scratch. It takes a bit of effort, but it's still doable.  smile

Also, With a large amount of text, you'll have to paste in readable chunks instead of one and done. The Scratch screen is too small for mass sums of words.

You can paste! Copy the text from wherever you're copying from, then go to Scratch paint editor, press T, and with your mouse inside the canvas, press either Ctrl+V on Windows or Cmd+V for Mac.

I hope that helps!  smile
