This sentence doesn't make any sense at all. But what is Duolingo without grammatically correct yet weird sentence.

I don't see why it doesn't make sense. People often refer to melted ice cream as ice cream in English. If somebody said this to me, I would take it to mean "the ice cream is warmer than I would like"
I don't know, my first language is English and when someone tells me something is hot, I expect it to be actually hot, not just warmer than I would expect.
It's because 뜨거워요 is a verb and 'hot ice cream' indicates 'hot' as an adjective. 'Hot ice cream' would probably translate to something like 뜨거운 아이스크림 but i could be wrong since i'm still learning myself.
That makes a bunch of sense. Thanks! Since they are using the adjective as a verb, it makes a whole lot of sense.
The ice cream is still not hot. The plate is hot. The brownie is hot. The person ordering might be hot or look hot. However the ice cream is cold.
Seriously? can't they just make a sentence like the ice cream is cold? I mean we've studied the word

If the last letter ends in a consonant, use 가/는, and if it ends in a vowel, use 이/은 Example)사과가/사과는, 수박이/수박은
Damn duo doesnt even have common sence like its called "ICE" cream for a reason
I seriously had to click on the word. Couldn't believe it really was hot. Duolingo makes me question my reality.
You ever just know perfectly well what a word means but start doubting yourself because the sentence makes zero sense...? Yeah.. xd
One time a girl said to me, "I wish someone would look at me the way you look at your ice cream." Maybe she believed my ice cream was hot?
If someone told me the Icecream was hot i'd just think someone left it out and it started to melt. When it gets soft from not being i the ice box you'd say "the Icecream is hot"

Ice cream is never hot. This sentence doesn't have any revelant meaning. The ice cream can get melt down but not hot.
