Because you are now learning polite language, not formal language. There are different levels.
You're right, but when you practise through "Strengthen skills," you cannot know which skill this exercise is from, so we have to accept all forms for now. We will maybe look for a way to add a speech level indicator for each exercise.
Does "Raise" here mean to raise something up or to raise a child till it grows to become an adult??
Naver lists 기리다 as "crawl up" and 기르다 as "raise," probably not helpful
@Marine - I'm not a native speaker but I think that's because 는 is a Topic marker to identify the topic when there are multiple clauses in the sentence. 가 would then indicate the subject thats in the other clause of the sentence. When there is only one clause, 는 would generally indicate a universal truth as in "Girls raise dogs"; which is not the intended meaning here, hence the Typo warning. Thays just what I think. Happy to hear from experts on the forum.
