"Eight little girls jump."

Translation: 작은 여자아이 여덟 명이 뛰어요.

[Dorien309216]

Why isn't 뜁니다 accepted?

[joe141105]

Report it. It should be accepted.

[soobee620]

Still not accepted. Sigh.

[bmf0QMZI]

Is '작은' really necessary here? As I understand, '여자아이' means the 'little girl' by itself...

[-kcdhari-]

Why doesn't it accept 소녀 or 소년? Do Koreans prefer to use 여자아이 and 남자아이 every time they want to say girl or boy?

[Staszek456]

소녀 and 소년 generally seem to be older than 여자아이 and 남자아이.

[pumpkinbambam]

여덟 명 작은 여자아이 뛰어요. This sentence is also correct. But why does when I answer this way it says incorrect?

[Ramya5301]

You missed some particles.. <여덟 명의 작은 여자아이가 뛰어요>

[nourx]

why 명이 and not just 명

[AnneCzarin]

이 is used to signify that it's the subject

[JoesCathbert]

작은 소녀 여덟 명이 뛰어요, why is this wrong?

[ErnestineO]

What is this 명이 for?

[niskigwun]

Numbers in Korean need to be used with a counter, kind of like "one piece of paper" or "one bottle of milk" in English. 명 is used for people

[AnneCzarin]

명 is counter for people, 이 is also there to signal that the people is the subject of the sentence

[Med_Boy]

I cant seem to get my head around when to use counters next to the number and when not.

[huffletuff]

it's kinda weird because in english "little girl" doesn't necessarily mean a physically small girl, it can just mean a young girl, so I didn't think to add 작은. Not sure if the same is true in Korean.

[mutitaqoh29]

What is 작은?

[shaina200889]

Little

[jaisaige]

Little

[Sowonnie04]

But 작은 소녀 여덟 명이 뛰어요 is also correct

[DongSooPar]

'little' little girls is irrelevant here

[LittleSeokjinnie]

The placing of the numbers is inconsistent. Im finding it hard to learn this.

[yslrii]

작은 being in the sentence is so unnecessary bro
