"The cat hates the food but eats it."

Translation: 고양이가 음식을 싫어하지만 먹어요.

[Donnabelle626054]

can't i say, "고양이가 음식을 싫어하는데 먹어요"?

[StephanieH940120]

This is probably not a great answer, but from what I have read, 지만 is considered a strong "but". Basically it is Always used to connect two clauses. Where 는데 is a softer, more polite version and can be used in multiple ways. This sentence can be both, so I definitely dont think its wrong, just throwing it out there since this question was asked so many times lol

i would also like to know

[shaurya_0_0]

Can we use "고양이가 음식을 싫어하는데 먹어요" instead of the given

[wackadoo1]

Duo, it is hard to get the answer right when I don't have the correct choices. (Flagged it)

[huffletuff]

please explain why 싫어하는데 is incorrect

[lizzielizabeth]

I will also join the group of unanswered people asking if 고양이가 음식을 싫어하는데 먹어요 works, and if not, why?

[fany_loo]

Im confused:(

[nleconte]

About which part?

[ChiaraMart983311]

Shouldn't 밥을 also work instead of just 음식을??

[deniseshlm]

Still cannot understand about how to use -지만 and -는데, can somebody explain it please :(

[nunes89]

poor kitten ;(

[deactivated user]

That cat is me :)

[Ivan859349]

I believe 밥을 is for rice and 음식을 is for general food itself. Or maybe others may contradict, I'm just a beginner hehe

[Jalvessica]

Can't I say "싫어는데"?

[Okawoa]

고양이가 먹지만 음식이 싫어요? Does it work?

[NessiPark]

Then that would mean "the cat eats but hates the food"

[GooigiTime]

Got wrong for writing "고양이가 음식을 미워하지만 먹어요"
싫어해요 and 미워해요 are the same thing

[Vaiana.Army]

I think you´re more likely to use "싫어하다" for objects and "미워하다" for people.

[JozefGurzy]

The cat - the food <<< hates, but eats.

Whew. Okkkay.

[troublemaker_tw]

sounds fake lol

[itsSeonYeon]

Why can't I say "그 거양이는 음식을 싫어하는데 그것을 먹어요"?

[Minjijina]

I never learned this but got it right....
