Why can't I use "khi nào" for "whenever" as Duo taught us in previous lessons?
I think khi nao is more literally "when," rather than "whenever." It could probably be used and understood, but moi khi is the more correct useage. Just like we could say this sentence in English, "She advises me to read books when I feel sad." A very similar meaning, but not exact.
Mine marked my answer correct but had "another translation" that was identical to what I put down except for an extra space between two of the words (which I could not have added because this was a word selection exercise) .

Why is khi nao not acceptable?
Co ay khuyen toi nen doc sach khi nao toi thay buon
Substitute moi khi for khi nao and it is accepted.
do you mind providing the full sentence you gave because many answers with "cảm thấy" are already accepted. over 475 different sentences are accepted for this sentence alone...
Thank you for checking, Có ấy khuyên tôi nên đọc sách mới khi tôi cảm thấy buồn.
Mỹ original answer looks just like 482.
I think it's because the sentence refers to books in general, which doesn't require a classifier, whereas your answer, with the classifier, refers to specific books, or 'the books'. That's the way I understand it, although I may be wrong.

I dont understand how this is wrong: co ay khuyen toi nen doc nhung cuon sach khi nao toi thay buon, all words i put are even showed in the "hover over" options.
