"Ne, já jejich muže neznám."

Translation: No, I do not know their husbands.

Suppose there is a sultan who has more than one wife. You want to say about the women, "I do not know their husband."

Isn't the Czech the same, namely, "Jejich muže neznám"?

As a practical matter, what would you actually say in this case?

[VladaFu]

Yes, that would be "Jejich muže neznám" as well so we do accept the singular husband here.

[BoneheadBass]

Interesting question! :-)

[LetitiateT]

Yes. I wanted to write this sentence too.

[VladaFu]

And, what happened?

[LetitiateT]

Pak jsem si vzpomněla že česky se i plurál řekne "muže" a zvolila jsem druhou možnost. Protože jsem neměla jistotu jestli duolingo zahrnulo do odpovědí i mnohoženství.

I wonder when there might be an appropriate situation in real life to use this sentence :)

When you have invited your entire department and their significant others for a bbq party and your husband asks you if you know the significant others.....???

Typically someone's wedding :)
