    Can someone explain how: "He prefers French more than German" is wrong?

      In English, "prefers" would be accompanued by "to", not by "more than".

      My exact question! I wrote : He prefers French more than German" also and got it wrong.

        Maybe in English it would be he prefers French to German rather than "more than"

        Isn't it redundant to have both mag and lieber in the same sentence?

          Thought lieber would be prefer?
