"This is a public celebration."

Translation: C'est une fête publique.

[Koren21]

What about "ceci est" instead of "c'est"?
I tried this, but it showed me it's wrong...

[Seattle_Scott]

Ceci est une celebration publique was accepted for me.

Can celebration be celebration in french?

[AmineHadji1]

Yes, it can. But than it becomes the act of celebrating and not a party.

[Rekty]

This word is very rarely used, we rather use fête. When we mean celebration we tend to think of people cheering and celebrating, not just having a holiday or something where you are kind of chilling most of the day.

Un jour de célébration = A day of celebration.

[fbmardi]

when do we use public / publique

[Sitesurf]

"public(s)" is the masculine form of the adjective and "publique(s)" is the feminine form.

"le public" is also a noun = the (general) public/audience

[JamilSukka]

at the same lesson you use (in French) public and publique ?

[Sitesurf]

"public(s)" is the masculine version of the adjective: "un jardin public", and "publique(s)" is the feminine version: "une place publique"

[Mimi587985]

Ceci est une celebration publique. I was marked wrong for Ceci? Why?

[Sitesurf]

This translation is accepted now, thanks.

[comida9]

Why is "célébration" unacceptable as a translation to "celebration"? Duo translates as "fête". Shouldn't both words be correct?

[CathyDay1]

ceci est une publique célébration.. can you explain why it is wrong please. Confused with ceci, cela ce etc

[Sitesurf]

"Publique" is a regular adjective to be placed after the noun it modifies.
