"El mănâncă de la mijlocul mărului."

Translation: He eats from the middle of the apple.

A poor sentence. There are a lot of other ways to introduce the word mijlocul !

[Glenn_ski]

Agreed. Duo seems to think that we will remember better if the sentences are weird. That may be true to a degree, but just about any other language learning program presents useful language, not weird, useless language. This is my second time through this course, and I think I've found about two sentences I could actually see myself using in Romania.

If you're a worm ;)

[Coriander18]

It's not possible to eat from the middle of an apple as it has skin on the outside!

[rapuchan]

If you are a worm and the egg was put in the blossom before it turned into an apple it is possible. Also if you cut the apple first, I don't see the problem.

Okay... so what if this sentence means this guy starts eating apples by eating a stripe around the equator before moving to the northern and southern hemispheres

the equator of the apple could be called "the middle" could it not?
