"Pilipili hoho ni mboga pia"

Translation: A green pepper is a vegetable also

[MrStevu]

"A green pepper is also a vegetable" is correct too.

[Ciara302166]

"Is also a vegetable" should be correct

[RoseWambug1]

why should it be green. Pilipili hoho is bell pepper which have different colors

[DeborahvBeek]

Yes I agree. I would say "is vegetable too". Or "is also a vegetable".

[sad_quails]

Isn't it a fruit?

[ThomBoye]

"Knowledge is knowing that tomatoes and peppers are indeed fruits, or, ripened ovaries; wisdom is knowing they don't go in fruit salads." ;-)

[Jonas_younes]

While literally equivalent, syntactically English still prefers also to be near its verb. I think both should be right.

Capsicum are vegetables too isn't accepted??

[sue116554]

It is actually a fruit. It contains seeds. Anything with seeds inside is, botanically speaking, a fruit. However this isn't the only incorrect statement in duolingo. Bees are bad insects is another

[frank856835]

why is green pepper not accepted in favour of bell pepper. Reported

[KathyKerns]

In mine, bell pepper was not accepted. The answer DL was looking for was green pepper.

[JavierLope441374]

Sometimes it's only accepted the literal writing

[florentissima]

I agree with all the previous comments.
