What I have tried:

public static boolean isVowel(char letter)
{
boolean vowel = false;
if(letter == ('a'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('e'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('i'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('o'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('u'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
return vowel;
}//endproblem3

//problem4
public static String longestWord(String s)
{
int count = 0;
String[] c = s.split(" ");
int longest = c[0].length();
String returnStr = "";
for(int i = 1; i < word.length; i++)
{
if(word[i].length()>=four.length()){
{
longest = c[i].length();
count = i; }
}
}
returnStr = c[count];
return returnStr;
//endproblem4
}

You need to show the code before line 34. There is obviously something wrong before that line. Have you checked to see if there is a missing close brace or semi-colon before line 34?

import java.util.*;
public class MyProgram
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
System.out.println("Problem 1 = " + isLetterA('a'));
question(System.out.println("Return true if the supplied character is 'a'"));
System.out.println(daysInMonth(2,1970));
}//end main

//problem1
public static boolean isLetterA(char letter)
{
return letter == 'a';
}//endproblem1

//problem2
public static boolean hasTwoA(String s)
{
boolean q = false;
for (int i = 0; i < s.length() && aCounter <= 2; ++i) {
int count = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++)
{
if(s.charAt(i) == 'a')
count++;
}
if(count >= 2)
return true;
return q;
}//endproblem2

//problem3
public static boolean isVowel(char letter)
{
boolean vowel = false;
if(letter == ('a'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('e'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('i'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('o'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
if(letter == ('u'))
{
return true;
}
return false;
return vowel;
}//endproblem3

Here is all the code before it

You're missing a close curly bracket to end the outer for loop of hasTwoA:

Java

public static boolean hasTwoA(String s)
{
boolean q = false;
for (int i = 0; i < s.length() && aCounter <= 2; ++i) {
                                                      ^
                                                      missing matching bracket.

Do yourself a big favour and stick to one indentation system: when you copy'n'paste code from the internet and mix them up, it becomes really difficult to read and spot problems like this. Picking an indentation style and using it throughout makes problems like thsi so much more obvious ...
