"Milyenek az egyiptomi művésznők?"

Translation: What are the Egyptian artists like?

[Blodwedden]

And why "female artists" is not accepted?

[Heroldnak]

Should be... Reporting

[Ishana92]

Just to be clear, when one says amerikai tanar is that only the nationality or can it be like in english both nationality and subject he/she teaches?

[jsiehler]

Angol tanár could be understood either way - a teacher who happens to be English, or a (possibly Hungarian) teacher who teaches the English language. Amerikai tanár would almost certainly be understood as "a teacher who is American" since "American" isn't generally seen as the name of a subject you could teach.

[96314081311257]

angol tanár = a teacher who's English

angoltanár = a teacher teaching English

They're spelt differently.

[TomkaDominique]

Why not: What are the egyptian female artists like? ??? (again: Blodwedden already asked this!)

[EsjaL]

I'd like to add: why not "What are Egyptian female artists like?" ?

[Judit294350]

Because it is odd in English. You don't say (or write) "female artists".

[Dzsaron]

"How are the Egyptian artists?" was accepted, but it shouldn't be. It means ,,Hogy vannak az egyiptomi művészek?".

famele artists -művésznők, artists.művészek !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Judit294350]

Not in English. It simply is not said. If the sex needs to be commented on, "woman artist" would be used. However, usually the pronoun is enough. "She is a leading artist" clearly refers to a woman who is an artist. "She is a leading woman artist" means out of all women who are artists she is leading - but probably not in comparison to male artists.

[EvilMeerkat]

Lack of consequence, once you require to translate művésznők into female artists but sometimes not, it is annoying

[Judit294350]

I suspect the "female" bit has become optional over time as you don't actually say that in English and over the 4 years people have pointed it out and they have removed it.
