"האמבטיה שלהם מספיק גדולה בשביל להכיל פיל."

Translation: Their bath is big enough to contain an elephant.

[saracen93]

Is the בשביל redundant here? I imagine the sentence to be natural without it.

[AlmogL]

I can see your version working well in writing, but I don't think anyone would drop the בשביל in informal spoken language.

[saracen93]

Thanks for clarifying!

If I omit the verb, would it make sense in Hebrew as "Their bath is big enough for an elephant"?

[AniKelly69]

Maybe the better translation would be, "...big enough for holding an elephant."

[JuliaIsach]

Big enough to fit an elephant

[DeniseChes]

I used large instead of big. It was marked wrong. Is this really different?

[RelevantFeather]

From an English perspective,it is not wrong, but I can't imagine using large instead of big in normal conversation. It just sounds unnatural in that sentence.

[owlinthebox]

Can you use כדי instead of בשביל ?

[strubkin]

Can I use "bathroom" instead of "bath"?

[danny912421]

This "bath" is "bathtub", not "bathroom", so I'd say no.

[Kingofearth23]

What are the root consonants for להכיל? It's clearly הפעיל, but are the roots ה.כ.ל or is the ה just replacing a weaker root?

[danny912421]

כ.ו.ל

Among the word choices, there is a misspelling: "disgusting" has an extra "i."
