"Fotografen elsker yrket sitt."

Translation: The photographer loves his profession.

What part of the sentence tells us the photographer is a man?

[Deliciae]

The Norwegian sentence doesn't specify gender, which is why his/her/their are all accepted. :)

[jospehkrammer]

That makes sense, thanks for the speedy response!

[Deliciae]

Bare hyggelig!

I thought so. However, when I typed in, "The photographer loves their profession," it marked this as an incorrect answer. I assume that in the near future, Duolingo will be updating this and accepting the answer?

minor audio question: full speed, i hear the t on the end of yrket. slowed down, sounds like 'yrke' with no t sound.

Well I loved mine!

So.. why is photographers love their profession incorrect?

[Louise_the_Lotus]

"Fotografen" is singular

[musclebear2b]

so is 'their' in English when the gender is unknown.

[Louise_the_Lotus]

Yes, but Kelly said "photographers", hence my response.

[CJ.Dennis]

"Dagger of the Mind": I love my work.

[NorskSpiller]

I think "its" should also be a correct translation. "The photographer loves its profession."

[Candidandelion]

No, in English you would never refer to a person as "it" (not unless you wanted to be extremely offensive).
