"Do you think tomorrow will be a sunny day?"

Translation: 你觉得明天会是晴天吗？

[nao657961]

Is 是 absolutely necessary here?

[Jadayah]

I have the same question

[HoGHe5wo]

Can you omit the 会?

[VaVuthea]

Yes. You can omit 会 in this sentence

[RonaldChan14]

"你觉得明天会晴天吗？" should be accepted.

[Sue982688]

I wrote 你觉得明天天气会是晴天吗？Is this acceptable? Another sentence had "today it's cold" as the translation for金天的天气很冷。 So i thought that 天气was often required.

[Daniel56704]

I wrote that too. And i think it's in the same sense correct to write that but its meaning is slightly different. It would mean 'do you think tomorrow's weather will be fine/sunny?'. In some questions on duolingo these are technicalities and are accepted as right and in others it isn't accepted... All I can say duolingo is only really useful as a support aid to proper chinese language classes, by itself it's not that great and this question shows that.

[LauraHitch4]

I have never learned 会是 before, would be great to have more questions with this grammer point in :)

[hippietrail]

I think it's just literally "will be". It's just that usually after 會 we've seen a verb whereas this time we're seeing a noun
(Even though we might expect an adjective like "sunny" in English that's not what happens in Chinese.

[hippietrail]

Is it also wrong to put the 是 before the 会?

[DariusLee3]

Yes it is wrong to do that. 會是 is a common term meaning "will be"
