"多儿今天吃了一个橙。"

Translation: Duo ate an orange today.

[TheoLiang]

I would say 橙子 instead of simply 橙 here.

[LinhNguyenRXL]

My last sentence! Thank you for this amazing course!

[joshyoung__]

Congrats in this amazing acheviement... Oops. I am 2 years late:(

[LouisXLVII]

it should be 橙子, at least in my dialect of Mandarin

[Morv938426]

It wasn't a mandarin, it was an orange! (哈哈!)

cant you use a more generic name other than 多儿? it sounds like "many children"

[viola737517]

haha, it's hard to translate Foreign names into Chinese.
We use Duo Er is because it sounds similar. The closest ones could be: 度欧Du Ou / 多多Duo duo （There are countless translations!) So have fun when learning languages!!

[CharlesEva1]

Exactly right. There's even a set proverb that uses it as "many children (sons)" [多儿多女多冤家，无儿无女坐莲花]

[learnfrenchray]

Many children ate an orange today. Good play on words, Duo!

[william.haslam]

Thanks for always smiling at us, Duo :)

[matchastars]

i think 橙子 or 柳橙 would be better here...

[viola737517]

yes, Orange in Chinese is: 橙（cheng）/橙子 （cheng zi）/柳橙（liu cheng) （it is used in Taiwan)/ 柳丁（liu ding）(more common in Taiwan)

[SeaCollides]

Man, I wrote Duoer instead of Duo.

[viola737517]

yes it is quite confusing.

[Jun0___0]

吃了一粒橙should be more correct

[Esther638105]

Nah we mostly use 粒 for smaller things like 一粒粒沙(sand), 一粒米(rice), 一粒提子/一顆葡萄(grapes)

[LesitaOpenSource]

It should be "多儿今天吃了一个橙子。" while the term "orange" means not only the color.

[viola737517]

Orange in Chinese is: 橙（cheng）/橙子 （cheng zi）/柳橙（liu cheng) （it is used in Taiwan)/ 柳丁（liu ding）(more common in Taiwan)
If you want to say the color in Orange, it should be: 橙色（cheng se)，橘色(jü se)，橘黄色 (jü huang se).

[Avn.2021]

i thought owls[duo] coudn't eat orange

[dora.ysh]

橙子 is the right one tho!!!!

[viola737517]

Orange in Chinese is: 橙（cheng）/橙子 （cheng zi）/柳橙（liu cheng) （it is used in Taiwan)/ 柳丁（liu ding）(more common in Taiwan)

[explodingplant]

Why can't Chinese have gem-buyable bonuses? Frequent cheng yu's would be great for 'idioms and proverbs' bonus lesson.
