3. A woman from the Netherlands was the shortest female ever; she never weighed more than nine pounds in her life. (Capital letter to begin; also for gentilic; s for plural, not possessive)

4. One Russian peasant woman gave birth to sixty-nine children. (Capital letter to begin sentence and for gentilic, not for the noun; hyphen not needed between the two nouns, hyphen for tens and units; children is the plural)
