"Péter gyakran hall itt szakácsokat."

Translation: Péter hears cooks here often.

Why isn't "chefs" accepted?

[Judit294350]

Because a "cook" is not a "chef" (at least in English).

Why not "Péter frequently hears cooks here"?

[Krisbaudi]

Is the english translation spoken in this way?
I would translate it with: Peter hears here often cooks. Is this also o.k.?

[AtalinaDove]

Nope. I don't know the exact grammar for it, and from my German experience that sentence would be pretty natural in German, but in English it sounds very unnatural. "Péter hears cooks here often" or "Péter often hears cooks here" would be the two ways I might phrase it.

[mizinamo]

Agreed, on both the German and the English.

[Krisbaudi]

Thank you very much

"Péter often hears cooks here" should be accepted, but it's not

[MrtonPolgr]

It's what I wrote, I got it accepted.

Pager often hears chefs here. Why is that not acceptable?

Peter not pager - and chef is not the same a s cook. A chef is a person with training and documentation and has far more skills than just cooking.
