These quotes seem to not work very well, I can't get it to work with any combination of quotes or space or commas. Even when I copy and paste the correct answer it doesn't work.
Apart from the fact this course universally uses Simplified Chinese, I would agree.
Traditional Chinese is accepted everywhere on Duolingo. Therefore, it seems a bit odd that here it doesn't work.
It works if you just leave out all the punctuation completely. 老师说请进 was accepted, but the quotes really, really need to be fixed.
I put 老师说，“请进！” instead of 老师说“请进”, which is the "correct answer". Duolingo didn't accept it. This is absurd.
we dont use comma in chinese. instead its a colon u shld put there. also, its 老师 not 老实
This example seems to be over-fussy about punctuation.
Actually on checking the punctuation is broken. The only way I could get past this exercise was cutting and pasting the answer from this discussion! THIS REALLY NEEDS FIXING!!!!!

进来 = come in, but you need the "please", which is 请. So 请进 = please come in. I think DL should accept 请进来 (but they dont)
I put the comma and it was marked wrong. 老实说，“请进！” should be accepted. Reported 7/24/19

In English and also in Dutch, we should write: The teacher says: "Please come in". So, with a colon (:) and quotation marks (")
