Re: reading a sentence
I think this is because you are using .next() and that reads the first word only. Try .nextLine()

Re: reading a sentence
i figured it out when i put this static Scanner myScanner = new Scanner(System.in).useDelimiter("\r\n"); it works any idea what the .useDelimiter does?
Re: reading a sentence
A delimiter is a character that identifies the beginning or the end of a character String.
Delimiter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If for example you have a comma in your sentance, you can set the delimiter to comma and split the sentance at that point.
I would still recommend using myScanner.nextLine(); though.
