"I sleep from 10 to 6 every day."

Translation: 我每天都从十点到六点睡觉。

[AriannaZha1]

The solution is definitely wrong. Definitely not how chinese people speak.

[daybreak_7]

How do they say it usually?

[AjayVerma908079]

I'm 1/16th Chinese and that's definitely how Chinese people say it.

What is the difference between "每天" and "每天都"? I notice that "每天都" was also accepted here but I don't quite get the distinction.

[audreychoi_1130]

"都" is a separate word from "每天". "都" emphasizes the repeating action. It also has several meanings other than that.

[linda437018]

I still don't get it, as 'every day' itself is repeating action. I tried both in google translate: 每天 = every day; 每天都 = everyday. Is 都 here kind of emotional emphasise like 'every day indeed' or suchlike?

[Elizabeth736652]

Thank you

[Iwilleatyouall]

They seem to have changed it so that "每天" is marked incorrect, and now it needs to be "每天都" or else it will be marked incorrect.

[Fuzzalex]

Still works fine without 都

[vPoinsettia]

it doesn't

[Torben879342]

It did for me

[Clara604861]

Wasn't accepted for me without 都 5/7/2020.

[Kawcaba]

It IS accepted without 都. Well, it is for me anyway. I don't know why it isn't allowing you to remove 都 from the sentence. 9/8/2020

[Gabrielle145359]

都 is commonly used. It just puts more emphasis on "every". It can be used to show that you do in fact mean every single day and are not skipping a day here and there.

[RaynaLThompson]

明天 means every day. 明天都 means every single day.

[Fiazaf]

You wrote ming tian which means tomorrow.

[Scott886098]

haha

[AndriesKir]

Can I say 每天从十点到六点我睡觉？ I.e. put the whole time phrase at the beginning?

[GSergivs]

I don't know why, but 每天都从十点到六点我睡觉 was not accepted.

[Vus227634]

wondering the same...

[Clara604861]

That would be because the subject, 我, has to come first in the sentence.

[Gelukservaring]

I answered just that and it was accepted.

[KyleDelane6]

There seems to be some incorrect pinyin. Shui jue should be shui jiao, right?

[Gabrielle145359]

睡觉 should be shuì jiào. If it says jué then Duo has not correctly accounted for 觉 being a polyphone.

[Bryan917314]

This is wrong and at a minimum inconsistent

[KayaSuleym]

The lack of any explanation for the usage of 都 in this context is poor form.

[RobinSpiegelman]

cannot translate without word bank. What is going on with Duolingo lately? This does not happen with French.

[Gracie349696]

I do not believe one needs to put in a dou after mei tian

[LinguaNerd]

Do I have to put "wo" at the beginning? In other sentences I have been able to time, subject, verb, but that was not accepted here. I'd like to understand why...

[HelenWalte14]

what's the difference between 每天 and 每天都 ？

[Max461096]

The pinyin is wrong...

[RaynaLThompson]

June 2020: the answer does not require 都。

[Clara604861]

Also June 2020, yes it did.

[DianaGibbs1]

So weird how it seems to require it for some people and not others. I got it right without dou

[Khanlam]

The pinyin is incorrect

[RobinSpiegelman]

Again there is no word bank from Duolingo. THis sentence cannot be translated into Chinese.

[NathanXu3]

right???

[Joan362592]

'睡觉'拼音错了。
'觉'有两个发音。
一个是'jué 还有一个是'jiào.

[NathanRasm]

Is 睡 the same as 睡觉？

[Suzan757195]

Screen got stuck. Could not continue. Had to start again.

[Kelly292913]

Isn't "我每天从十点到六点睡觉＂correct?

[NathanXu3]

How do I write in Chinese without a word bank? It is so hard using pin-yin and typing, please change this!!!

[JohnChen301215]

You can install the Microsoft Keyboard for Chinese pinyin. It is quite easy to use, and you can switch to English keyboard quickly also.

[Thunder448]

This isn't the way you speak Chinese

[Miss.Theresa]

this sentence is So weird

[3fingersja]

我每天十点睡觉八个小时。

[ShannAwesome]

This sentence says "I sleep 10 PM 8 hours every day."
睡觉 is an infinitive verb, so it requires context every time. You can easily say "我每天十點睡觉" (I sleep at 10 every day) or "我每天睡八個小時" (I sleep 8 hours every day), but you can't combine the clauses any easier in Chinese than you can in English without any additional conjunctions.

[P.ep.e]

Thank you ShannAwesome. So, do you agree with the other messages that the original sentence from Duolingo does not feel natural in Chinese? What would be the best way to say it?

[daybreak_7]

Thanks!

[Andy911237]
