"You have blue shoes."

I didn't write εσύ. That can't be wrong.

Also I put μπλε after παπούτσια. What are the rules on adjective word order? Is it just like English, or is there some freedom, as in many other languages?

There is a freedom, but it's better to stick to word to word tranlsation within the cource. In Greek,in context, you can even say Παπούτσια μπλε έχεις, μπλε παπούτσια έχεις. depedning on which word you want to emphasize. It would be impossible to accept all the possible word orders in all of the course's sentences.

Ευχαριστώ!

[troll1995]

Oh, i forgot to say that about the omitted εσύ, you are right and it is accepted.

[bonbayel]

Ευχαριστώ!

What are rules around the word blue in greek? We have γαλάζιος and γαλανός (for eyes) yet μπλε seems to be most widely used. Could you use γαλάζιος here? How do you decide which to use?

This shows the differnce between the 2 blues. We had a really good discussion of color somewhere a while back and I found a long list that I couldn't find off hand. I'll try again. I like seeing what exactly is meant by the names.
