why "megallo" is correct and "busz megallo" is wrong?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Findil

"Buszmegálló" as one word should be accepted.


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/BrandedBastard

A busz kihagyása a magyar mondatból 100%-ig hibás. Van villamosmegálló, metrómegálló is. Ez egy hibás mondat.

why can't we say "A megálló új van"?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Findil

Check this site. :)

we omit "van" when stating what something is using an adjective or a noun.

Why if "Ez nagy bank" means This bank is big, is "A új megálló" wrong for The bus stop is new? Is it "A" vs "Ez" or something else?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Andras_Gyep

Because "Ez nagy bank" actually means "This is a big bank" "This bank is big" would be "Ez a bank nagy" and "The big bank" is "A nagy bank". Also as "új" starts with a vocal, you should say "Az új" instead of "A új" then "Az új megálló" means "The new stop".

Why is "A uj megállo" wrong?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Andras_Gyep

Because you must use "Az új" since it starts with a vocal, also "Az új megálló" means "The new stop". Just keep in mind the following:

Az alma piros - The red apple

A piros alma - The apple is red

You got the apple example wrong, it is the opposite.

Az alma piros = The apple is red.

A piros alma = The red apple.

A busz állomas új. is marked wrong. When is állomas used ... only for trains?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/MrtonPolgr

buszállomás is just not used, for whatever reason. There is buszmegálló and buszpályaudvar but not buszállomás. Állomás is most typically vasútállomás (railway station) but there's also metróállomás (metro station obviously) and végállomás (~final station, ie end of the line)
