"我的姐姐二十四岁。"

Translation: My older sister is twenty four years old.

“姐姐”使用“elder sister”，系统拒绝了。

[Rav_Smith]

Still haven't fixed "elder sister"... (Reported)

[MaxChoi1]

elder sister is incorrect, that's funny

[ilyas095]

Where is the verb in this sentence?

[Kim765719]

That is a good question! I am not certain, but I believe that 岁 indicates the verb along with the age. In my other learning programs, I have never heard 他 是 二十 岁。 That, of course, does not mean it is correct! So, we could use a native speaker or someone further along to answer this... :)

[bawallish]

Yes. "岁" works out to more or less "has reached the age of," which isn't really a natural way to phrase it in English, but it gets the general idea across.

Thank you for asking.

I'm happy to find pre-asked and pre-answered questions of my specific ambiguous point

[George792719]

I wrote "my older sister is 24 years of age", instead of "my older sister is 24 years old". It means exactly the same thing in English. Needless to say I got marked wrong, not for the Chinese being wrong, but by the limited choice of English responses.

I'm a mother tongue English speaker.

I wrote: "our older sister is 24 years old" and it was considered wrong. How come ? I guess you should accept the numbers

[Giorgio182480]

Because it says "my", not "our". "Our" would be "wo3mende".

[Darrell_Weaver]

Why can't I use 24 as well az twenty-four or twenty four? They all mean the same thing.

[Catfriend11]

I said Me sister is 24 years old they should hve just said that there was a typo and said that i was right humph

[phb2013]

But your answer doesn't identify her as your older sister as opposed to your younger sister.

[Fade2R]

lol @ elder sister being regarded as incorrect. please fix your contents

[bakary306001]

My older sister has 24 years old. Is this sentence not correct

[phb2013]

No, the verb "has" is incorrect. You wouldn't ask "How old have she?" You'd ask "How old is she?" "She is twenty-four years old."

[llermo6]

the answer is "My older sister is twenty four years old."
BUT, I only got the option "older" instead "old"

[GaryLBulthouse]

I used "my big sister is 24" and it was perfectly accepted
