The randomness of accepted English answers makes it very frustrating to complete these exercises.

Sometimes having to memorize the exact sentences, needing 4 or 5 attempts while your first answer was basically correct but not accepted, makes it very time consuming. I'm reporting like mad, but it seems to be very slow...

Still loving the people that made this course, though! :)

why is this nem lesetalnak and not nem setalnak le? Isn't there a rule that negatives cause additions to go after the verb?

Because the focus is on the activity, "lesétálnak" vs "leugranak".
Another sentence: "Nem a gyerekek sétálnak le az utcára, hanem a felnőttek." Here the focus is not on the verb.

I have the same question on a lot of these exercises.

Thanks, I guess that one report is enough. I got my first confirmation of an accepted alternative today. Yeah.

The children don't walk onto the street but they jump down. Not accepted. Why?
