    DL doesn't accept "magazine" ; sometimes DL wants "you all", sometimes DL rejects "you all" (even if plural). Lack of consistency ?

      Yep, an exasperating lack of consistency. I'm reporting every time DL doesn't accept the simple verb without pronouns for plural imperative.

        They give the meaning of gazeti as being both newspaper and magazine, but won't accept "Read the magazine" as a translation! I wonder why...

            How do you report it? They give me the correct answer as "y'all read the newspaper". I have never used the term "y'all" in my life...

                Gazeti is actually a Ji/Ma noun, so no.
