More and more in every theory it seems. Dead certain is 4. the 3 we experiance normally plus time. there are 10 for the most basic string theories, which most physicists think can be unified into one string theory (called M theory), but this uses an 11th dimension. Other scientists have suggested theories with all number of dimensions.

Personally, I would say three spatial dimensions and one time dimension. So four altogether.
I don't agree with the whole string theory, there isn't the evidence to back it up. If there are more than three spatial dimensions then can they be drawn on a piece of paper? Doubtful.

11 dimension

The current theory of everything (including string theory) says there are 11 dimensions. Recommended reading "Parallel Worlds" by Prof Michu Kaku

4 that we're sure about (3 space and 1 time).
11 seems to be a popular number with string theorists, but there's no real evidence of this. Who knows really.

four standard one's and then you start getting a bit tricky when you start looking at quarks.
one of the strangest bits i can't get my head round is something can exist in 9.5 dimensions.... how do you exist in half a dimension?!?!?!

11 dimensions,,,,but we only can apreciated 4,,because the others are curved itself

If you subscribe to string theory then loads!

Well, "Sliders" seemed to go on forever so it could be a lot.
