Lesson 10.8

MCK

MCK

The English to be translated in Flashcards (#82 as it appeared for me)  is "We bought the plants" and is translated in French as «Nous avons acheté des plantes». As the definite article is used in English the definite article is also required in French and this should be «les». Alternatively the English should be either "We bought some plants" or "We bought plants", as in either of these cases, the French requires «des», whereas English can live with or without an article.

Salut MCK,

Thank you for your feedback! Indeed, des should not be translated as "the"; I will pas this on to the French team to look into.

Merci encore,

Liss
