"Jem duże śniadanie."

Translation: I am eating a big breakfast.

[Mogyi-modz]

Surely "I am having a big breakfast" is also a correct answer, is it not?

[cyanglue]

I think they want you to keep it litteral, "Jem" means "I am eating" anyways

[LaisReis1]

I believe so, since it also means you are going to eat it.

Why I can't say "I eat big breakfast"

[Kopustko]

❤❤❤❤❤❤ I always have problems with English articles. Why it can't be "I'm eating big breakfast"? >.

[Jellei]

It could potentially be "I'm eating breakfast", but if you add an adjective, it can only be "a big breakfast". The "eating breakfast" one is rather an exception.

[larandaA]

It accepts "I am eating a large breakfast" and "I eat a big breakfast" but does not accept "I eat a large breakfast". Why?

[StephenSuddjian]

Why is the word "sniadanie" not in the Acc. case?

[immery]

but it is. It just happens to have accusative=nominative like all neuter nouns.

[StephenSuddjian]

Oh okay. I've written down all the noun case endings, so now I have a reference. Thanks. Polish can be confusing.

[cuidifengling]

If i say "Jem dużo śniadania", it means i am eating a lot of breakfast , right?

[Jellei]

Yes, but such a sentence is a bit weird to me. Although it sure is correct grammatically.

[cuidifengling]

Ok,thanks, you think it is weird maybe there is a logic problem in that tense, because I can not eat a lot in the moment of eating, so if I say " zjadłam dużo śniadania", is it still wierd for you?

[Jellei]

A bit better? But I'd still go with "duże śniadanie".

Because "śniadanie" is a specific meal. It's hard to talk about the amount of it, but you can eat about the 'size' of the meal. "Zjadłam dużo jedzenia" is perfectly fine, "Zjadłam dużo ryżu/zupy/mięsa/ziemniaków" etc. as well, but here... I don't think so.

[Anthony379950]

How come it accepted jen dużą śniadanie and did nit mention typos, but here it uses duże (not dużą)?

[alik1989]

Type-what-you-hear exercises are useless. I suggest turning them off in the settings.

[Anthony379950]

Can you please elaborate on why they are useless? Are they not training my ears?

[alik1989]

You could have written something entirely messed up like: "jam duz snidanie" and it would have accepted your answer as correct without any notifications. The developpers have known about this problem for at least a year, but nothing has been done about it.

Here's an example where a sentence has been accepted that has an entirely different meaning:

Breakfast is neutral

[Jellei]

Yes, even in Polish! Well, the word is 'neuter', but I know what you mean.
