When translating this sentence, the omission of 有 (yǒu) suddenly occurred to me: maybe I learned it this way from my teacher too (and can I find this construction also in my study books). I had planned to regularly check if (and to what extent) Duolingo deviates from what is in my study books, but I have not done so yet ...

This seems a reasonable question so I don’t know why you’ve had four down votes. Have an up vote and a lingot.

I tried all the possibilities but Duo only accepts when 为什么stands in front of 你。How come?
