"I have a book."

Translation: Ho un libro.

[boIgz2]

No answer is good ....

[benton.1]

If it is a multiple choice question, you have to select ALL the answers that are correct.

[Georgia559096]

I have the same problem

[BootDat]

me too, till i chose both answers

[Feras..]

We said (ho) instead of( io ha)?!!

[wordlover42]

Why is it un libro rather than uno libro?

[deactivated user]

"Uno" is used before nouns that start with "z" , "sc" and "gn" : )

[seulbeenki]

Grazie mille!

[remas654033]

Thank you

[Jess519040]

You can only use uno when the word starts with a z or an s+ consonant

[Calandestine]

a book - un libro
one book - uno libro

[RichS4]

Has a bug put the right answer and says it s wrong

[vineethpab]

Same here

[Tommy237]

when do i use ha and when do i use ho ?

[Splat087]

"Ho" is "I have" while "ha" is "he/she/it has"

[puuussss]

How about 'they have' 'we have' 'you(plural) have' and 'you(singular) have' ?

[Lena94004]

"Io ho un libro" and "Ho un libro" - they are the same!

[orchidbabi]

It will not let me go further. This is the second time doing this. I know my answers are.correct

[Martine546012]

Ho un libro is also correct!

[Jayottone]

Has a bug. Please fix

[Irina971568]

It tells me that the answer is wrong, when it's actually right

[gianfranco854247]

I have: italian io ho

[JhonWinter]

I have used the app, tiny cards, I know you propably know about it. Using the Italian duolingo section or cards, has helped little "old" me a lot. I am not sure but with great humility, I will tell you, I was never taught phonics. I am asking, is that helpful when learning a foreign language? I am sure it has not helped me with other aspects of learning. Just wondering?

[kimysuarez24]

Why is it ''Ho un libro" instead of ''Io ho un libro''?

[benwaggoner]

How do we know when it is alright to write "Ho un libro" rather than "Io ho un libro"?

[Frank985552]

Why wasn't "Io" a choice? I would think it's more common to say it that way.

[inge874282]

Thes questions are asked in the 3th lesson of italian basic 1. No lessons or tips or received about verbs as:
to have or how to use it. Same as how to use in italian : in, over etc.
Important basic lessons missing here , which make the italian course a gamblegame on questions and answers and make me quit the course.
I am a dutch student, following italian lessons in english.

[TrinidadA.4]

I have it write it were 2 " Ho un libro " sentences

[Alex_lp_Young]

It won't even give me a new question. It keeps bring me back to this. I am not understanding why non of the answers are right.

[DaleArnold]

i have checked both ways and still am not getting right the other way is lo ho un libro lets get togeather

[alfredolak1]

I don't know why all the answers r wrong. Could someone help

[AK178]

I keep getting the wrong answer even if I answer the write one.

[Sophia844091]

doesnt take any answer :-(

[Carol518347]

I chose "Io ho un libro" which appears to be correct. Yet it registered as an error...?

[BiancaReyn3]

Ugh I put 'io ha un libro' and thought that would be it.

[BiancaReyn3]

Ugh I put 'io ha un libro' and thought that would be right

[Kimberly938089]

How do you say it

[Ned954758]

Why is it "Ho" instead of "Io"?

[Vesna0904]

I wrote "Io ho un libro" and the answer was rejected .....why????

[SeanM65871]

fanculo

[Jeff237677]

Didnt even teach me what Ho meant yet

[Earthsome]

Hggff

[aussie97]

arrrrgh!!! I always forget to make "have" gender specific! I keep on putting ha when it should be ho.

[marziotta]

It's not gender specific, it's the conjugation, but it doesn't change for man or woman... at least not in "presente indicativo"

AVERE (Presente - Indicativo)

io ho

tu hai

lui/lei ha

noi abbiamo

voi avete

loro hanno

[inge874282]

Thnx, above verb is totally missing in the lessons

[Vlad13Radu]

It's not gender specific, it's person specific.

[DennisMouz]

Me 2 :') :')

[Snidge]

What's the difference between ho and ha?

[italianolearning]

ho = I have
ha = he/she has

[Bibliophiliac]

It asked about ho vs ha in a multiple choice question...and I'd never seen them used before! I figured ha un libro, but apparently ho un libro is "i have a book" #headdesk. Heh...

[JorjaM08]

loho

[Conny649562]

Me too

[adaw20]

All the answer is wrong

[MovieManJeff]

I can't get a right answer here or on another question in this lesson.

[yara884950]

All answers come up as incorrect

[crissy81984]

There is an error in this question none of the 3 answers are correct.

[vineethpab]

I selected right one but it shows wrong again and again

[Gigi376174]

I keep clicking Ho un libro but it keeps telling me I am wrong

[Makinley367194]

[angie280059]

[Davidecerc]

Perché scrivo giusto ma mi da l errore?

[ManuelAnic8]

[JayFernand8]

LET ME PROGRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[filmklang]

[VanHughes1]

Can I not put Io ho.. Or just ho?

[PraiseOmo]

What is the problem i have choose the answer

[Yvonne558055]

I have translates ho

[Tina48564]

I selected all three options at least twice to translate "I have a book" and all say incorrect - this is what comes up:
Correct solutions:
Io ho un libro., Ho un libro.

It won't let me skip the question either?

[SeanM65871]

f***

[dossantosmjr]

Why?!??!!!!!!!!???!!!!?!

[Lordthickd]

Wtf

[MochidoesItalian]

Italian is so complicated!

[Nyckita]

So correct me if I'm wrong, but ho is used for masculine and ha is used for feminine, correct?

[Peter.Terhorst]

no, io ho = I have, lui/lei ha = he has/she has (when the subject is I, use ho, when the subject is lui/lei, use ha)
