> Nihongo ha kyuu kagetsu ni benkyou shiteiru  
>  = I've been studying japanese for 9 months.

If it's wrong, why? Should it be "kyuu kagetsu go ni?"

question
meaning particle-に
How to say "I have been ～ for X months"
I would rather say: 私は九ヶ月間、日本語を勉強しています。(Watashi ha kyuukagetsu kan nihongo wo
benkyoushiteimasu).

In this case of a continued action in time you do not need at all the particle
に after the word indicating how much time you have been doing something. Add
instead 間 (kan) that indicates a span/length of time. Also, を (wo) should mark
the object/what is that you are studying (in this case Japanese).

Actually, there is a related question
[here](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/19148/how-do-you-say-i-
have-been).
