Same with "Teacher Wang lives where in London?" It would really help me if we could write our English answers more gramatically like Chinese. Such as "... lives in London where?" Because having to read it first in Chinese while translating mentally, and then rearranging it into proper English grammar is only hampering my ability to think in Chinese without pauses and breaks.
still a problem over a year later. Come on. obvs reporting it isn't fixing it, a mod has to get on this. I'm from England and this is the natural way I'd say it.
Duolingo is great; there are no other apps that are free and compare to duolingo's teachings. If you don't like how it's teaching you, nobody's forcing you to stay.
Yeah I had this same problem, they should really fix this stuff. I mean, its been 10 months so you would think they would have fixed it by then right?
Exactely and also "Where in London does live Teacher Wang" - is is important for the quality of this course to add all correct answers as fast as possible!
Where does Mr. Wang live in London?
This should also be an acceptable answer.
I agree with the word order. That's what got me too. They'll make it so that word order is accepted too. But, "先生" is Mr. and "老師" is teacher. That's what did it for you.
That's not true. If you report it, duo will take a look at it. They will even inform you about it.
How to you distinguish these two phrases in Chinese.
Where in London does teacher Wang live?
And
Does teacher Wang live in London?
I thought the answer was the second question.

Hi the difference between where in London does teacher wang live and does teacher wang live in London is that 哪儿 means where so if you said does teacher wang live in London it would have 吗 instead of 哪儿
Where in London does Teacher Wang live? is the same as Where in London lives Teacher Wang?
"Wong" should also be accepted instead of "Wang"
People from Hong Kong and Macau use "Wong" instead of "Wang"
I wrote this "Where in London does teacher Wang reside" and the app says am wrong. Smh
'Where in london does teacher wang live in' should be accepted because they can't just have one answer
Because I want to go to his house. Why is this question even asked? Lol
I always answer "where in london does teacher wang (lives)" instead of live, is that accepted?
I wonder if
'Teacher Wang, lives in which part of London?'
Should be accepted... hmm
where in london is teacher wang living
could someone please explain to me why this is wrong?
My sentence : Where does teacher wang live in London? Correction : Where does Teacher Wong live in London?
Could you check that out guys? thanks in advance :)
Why in all other tests we must write "the teacher" and here only "teacher" ?
When specifying a particular teacher adding an extra "the" is incorrect English.

I have correctly given Chinese words as per the solution still answer is not accepted why?
"Where in London does PROFESSOR Wang live" should also be accepted. You almost never say "Teacher Whatever" it's just awkward. It's either Professor or Mr/Ms in grade school. Or be consistent about only accepting "teacher" for all questions involving 老师
In English no, in Chinese.... you may very well do and we're not learning English here.
"Where is Teacher Wang's home in London?" was not accepted either. C'mon people!
There's no Jia in there. At this point in learning there is a distinction between Jia and Zhu.
"Where in London lives Theacher Wang?" is abosolutely correct. It is here not necessary to use the complicate construction with "to do" - Please add this sollution!
No it really shouldn't.
教授 = Professor 老师 = Teacher
In the UK we don't typically title teachers but in Japan for instance... 先生 Sensei is really common. 老师 Laoshi is the Chinese equivalent.
