Marion, it's from the verb necesitar - to need.
If you remember your present tense verb conjugations:
yo necesito - I need
tú necesitas - you need
él necesita - he needs
usted necesita - you need
ella necesita - She needs
ellos necesitan - they need
So, tú no necesitas un taxi - you don't need a taxi.
It could also have been usted no necesita un taxi, 'you don't need a taxi' using the Usted you formal form.
Just don't forget to match the conjugations correctly:
tú necesitas, usted necesita
Thank you! It would be helpful if Duolingo actually explained these things to us rather than have us guess, get marked wrong, and have to come to the comments to learn.
i wrote "no necesitas un taxi" and it was marked wrong that it should be "no precisa un taxi"! something isnt right
iam confused how to use el and la. el is for male and la for female. so, how about the things nor other without gender?
im still new but from what I've noticed, anything ending without an a is usually masculine like Carro and dinero and any word ending in a is feminine
