"Os meninos dormem em uma cama pequena."

Translation: The boys sleep on a small bed.

[Tony979198]

It's more common to say "sleep IN a bed"

[NathanRN]

I agree... Thats what i wrote, and it was marked wrong.

"Os meninos dormem numa cama pequena" is also correct, isn't it?

[erudis]

Yes.

[Al_ex-N]

É isso! Em + uma = numa

[flemmilu]

can you even say em uma? I thought it always HAD to be numa?

[Paulenrique]

Linking them is not madatory. "Em uma" is more common in written language.

I wrote the translation correctly as it appears here, but the lesson tells me it should be "The boys sleep on 1 little bed." The lesson should accept my translation. Please fix.
