"Τhe reduce of the quality" Don't accept! Why???

[jaye16]

You need the noun "reduction" here. "Reduce" is the verb.

[Theofa]

Thank you!! You need the noun.

My answer was correct, however, the preposition in the English translation given by DL is not. In the sciences we say "the decrease in quality".

[jaye16]

Yes, we agree that although "of" is not unheard of, the preferred preposition in this sentence should be "in" and when it was brought to our attention we added "The decrease in quality." as an accepted translation. Please see the comment just above yours which was made a year ago.

So if your sentence was rejected it was not due to the use of "in". When a sentence is rejected you should make a Report. Thank you for your input as all information is appreciated as a valuable addition to the course.

Is decline of quality wrong?

[jaye16]

We have "The decline in quality." I've added "The decline of quality." which is also correct. Thankyou.
