"Анна у своих родителей."

Translation: Anna is at her parents'.

[Katie368826]

" Parents' " not " parents "

[RobertDenver]

I agree there must be an apostrophe

[TheFinkie]

I think it is a programming error. The apostrophe appears in the answer sentence at the top of the page, but it is omitted in the word-choice exercise.

[J4E89]

Why, and what is the meaning of the sentence? At her parent's house?

[RobertDenver]

Yes. "At her parents' " with 'house' or 'place' implied but not written.

[kpagcha]

So when you say "someone's at some other's place" you use the accusative?

[deactivated user]

No, you actually use the «у» preposition + genitive.

«У» has a number of uses. You must have seen it in the sentences like «у меня́ нет кни́ги» 'I don't have a book' (you could understand it as 'at my place, there's no book' if that helps).

[big_jiggins]

why use y? why not Ha or B?

[someguy25]

What does this mean? Duo's not giving me the English translation.

" Anna is at her parents' "

[minderbinder8]

when doing a listening exercise with this sentence, is there a good way to distinguish between "Анна" and "Она"?

[dshayla]

анна has emphasis on the first syllable. она is on the second

[SnakeBelmont]

also Анна is somewhat longer.

Personally I hope this worka for 12 vs 19

[PhilippeMa311682]

она and анна have the same pronunciation, this is boring...

[IanKendric3]

Listen more closely: Анна stresses the first consonant and она stresses the second. Duo has been consistent with these different pronunciations since the 'Alphabet' basics.

Boredom does tend to result from stunted observations. Or maybe you just need headphones... like Duo keeps suggesting.

[Xuu37]

I wrote "Anna at her parents'" as a kind of underline for a photo or something. Would that be the same? Should it be accepted?
