"Hledám krávu."

Translation: I am looking for a cow.

[AvWb3]

Proč ne 'I look for a cow'?

[vcelam]

I'm looking for means 'Hledám' and that's how it is.

[BoneheadBass]

But hledám can mean both "I am looking for" and "I look for." However, "I look for" is not the best choice here, although it is now accepted.

[folshost]

Why does this question not accept "I am searching for a cow" as a valid answer?

[deactivated user]

It was actually what the program suggested for me after it marked my sentence wrong "I search for a cow".

[sanquii]

It ought to.

[JasnaHup]

And why is only present continuous only marked as correct here (I'm looking for, I'm searching for)? Why not I search for? or I look for?

[BoneheadBass]

The simple present is now accepted, but it's not the best choice is a sentence like this. If you just say, "I look for a cow," it sounds like something is missing. Examples: "I look for a cow..." every Thursday... when I want to eat really fresh beef... when I have nothing better to do..."
