Ive put my answer, it then says im wrong and shows me the correct answer which is exactly what i put as my answer hahaha
Same happed with me and its happening again and again i can't go further what is this
Might be spelling necesita wrong. English people assume its nececita when they hear it i think.
Again I have got this answer correct and have checked every spelling which is correct and I have been told it is WRONG.Please advise
Can someone explain why XCM17 answer is not correct . Is it because the subject is female?
Because they aren't usually pretty. But an "oficina" could be "bonita" with no major problem.
Un is Masculine for A / Unos is Masculine Plural
Una is Feminine for A / Unas is Feminine Plural
I put "Mi hermana necesita una oficina bonita"right but it says im wrong heh
A is feminine in Spanish meaning that you would say “Ese mujer es muy bonita.” O is masculine and example is “Ese hombre es muy bonito.” It wouldn’t make sense to use the feminine ending when you are talking to a male and same with the feminine ending. You could look up the website study Spanish for feminine and masculine endings. I hope this helped!
Not really common, so you shouldn't worry if you don't learn that word now (precisar)
Do adjectives normally come after the noun? Duo accepts both "Mi hermana necesita una oficina bontia" and "...una bonita oficina." Is one more correct than the other?

Some must come before the noun and some must come after. Some can be either before or after. Some are spelled differently when coming before than when they come after. Sometimes the meaning changes depending on if they come before or after. I think you just have to develop a personal relationship with each adjective.
Adjectives before the noun are used to emphasize the adjective, but you can't put every adjective before a noun.
I had same thing happen as DannyT1205. Not a typo because I was selecting answer from buttons (and words were placed in the correct order)

I remember this phrase everytime it comes up. Apart from 'Mi' the rest of the words end with an 'a'.
Both are for the second person in singular form, but "necesita" si also for "she".
Same here. I have the correct answer and it is still showing it as wrong.
I think the translation of bonita should be beautiful. Girls can be pretty but not cities or things
No. In Spanish, adjectives come after the noun, meaning Pretty comes after Office. Plus, you used the wrong adjective and article. Because Oficina is feminine, Bonito changes to BonitA, and Un changes to UnA
Mi hermana necesita unA oficina bonitA
