"Wanaongeza mayai"

Translation: They are adding the eggs

[LibrarianDan]

What is the context here? Are they adding the eggs to something, or aare they doing arithmetic with eggs? I answered "They are increasing the eggs," which of course makes no sense, but it accepted it. What sense of "adding" does "-ongeza" convey?

[ElMeuNom]

I think the first one, but possibly both.

[amaiellu]

Why can't the answer be "They are adding eggs"? Why is "the" required here?

[AGreatUserName]

It's just because not all options have been added to the course yet. Either way is fine. If you see it again, make a report.

[BenMack8]

Why can't I put "they are increasing eggs," when that's what the hints suggest? There is no context so my translation should be correct.

[RudolfJan]

Can one of the course developers please adapt the example. It does not make sense

[jemef]

Strange:
They are addìng eggs.

Rather:
They are replenishing the eggs.

[Catriona28475]

"Adding" and "increasing" both seem good translations of "-ongeza" to me, e.g. adding eggs when making a cake. (If the cake fails to rise, try increasing the eggs next time.)
The verb "replenishing" is about replacing supplies - not the same thing at all.

It is still not accepting ‘they are adding eggs’

[CeeCeeSong]

well, now it won't accept they are increasing the eggs! It only accepts they are adding the eggs. None of it makes any sense!! May, 2020
