"Your child is pretty."

Translation: 你的孩子很漂亮。

[RuudTe]

This means your child is very pretty and the question was your child is pretty. So my answer shouldve been correct.

[deactivated user]

Nope. In Chinese, the word "hen3" (or an alternative, such as "fei1 chang4") is almost always required, even if the child is not "very" cute.

I spoke Chinese when growing up, and without the 很, the sentence doesn't sound right. As DaveLommen said, the 很 doesn't necessarily mean "very" in this case.

[SimonSprin1]

I used plural form 你们的孩子。。。 That was marked incorrect, but I think it should be accepted.

Had the same issue. Reported 08/02/18

[PolyGoat8]

yep, trying to say 你们的 instead of 你的 still doesn't work and makes more sense - feb. 11, 2019

Is 'de' necessary when the subject is a person?

[norakmalhakim]

Why must include 'hen' here

[ante36]

Because that's just the way it is unfortunately.

[Cynthia.ch14]

I also think of the correct answer as "very pretty" so I am confused. If you are going to have options, make them different so there is no confusion.

[Eanorel2]

I wrote "你孩子很漂亮" and it marked it as wrong. But it should be correct! For very close relatives we can ommit the "的".

[Brian894876]

I was told that saying it without the hen3 implies a comparison is being made, ie. "Your child is prettier."

[YanenCakhen]

Coool!!! We should use something else except shi here!!!

[Dandrda]

how about pretty = 可爱？？？
I think it should be correct, am I right?

[nerb25]

No, I take "可爱" to mean 'cute' not 'pretty'.

[Adam618180]

Your child is pretty should be acceptable.

[John-8.]

Sometimes in this program piao liang stands without a verb or hen3?
