    Would it still make sense if I used meg for and?

      Yes, but then "és ez" changes to "ez meg". Watch the word order.

              I wrote "Ez a lámpa, ez meg a telefon" but I got it wrong.

                "ez a lámpa ez pedig a telefon" is accepted.

                  Report it. It is a well worded answer.

                  Why do you sometimes use an article before the noun when preceded by "Ez" and other times you don't? In a previous example, the articles were omitted and "meg" was used instead of "es", but the sentence had the exact same construction.
