Desde hace o Desde

My question and answer: How would you say "For many years I have done Tai Chí"? I picked "Desde hace muchos años hago Taichí. But it says the correct answer is Desde much años hago Taichí.

Looking at the lesson that the link takes me too, I only see to use Desde when the time is specific like 1 year.

Please help.

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Using desde (hace) with the present instead of the perfect tense to express since/for"

Hola Michael

I checked in the system and the answer that is given as correct is the right one. Bear in mind that here we are using "desde hace", not just "desde".

Hago Tai Chí desde 2018.

Hago Tai Chí desde hace dos años.

desde + specific time

desde hace + lengh of time

I hope this clarified it.

Saludos
