I have done this exercise before but now i realise that the noun liska is not written in the accusative . Is it because it is a question?
In the Czech-to-English exercise, "What does A fox say?" is also accepted. In this exercise, options both with and without ta are accepted. If you mean that there was no word bank tile for ta here, it is likely because ta is not included in the main translation, which is the one shown at the top of the page. In a "real world" scenario, whether the speaker means "a fox" or "the fox" could be derived from the context.

In fact, the Czech sentence means both. On the other hand, I can hardly imagine any situation I would ask "What does say A (whoever)?"

I have had exercises where ,in my answer I have omitted writing the the translation in czech and gotten it wrong. IN this case the in the fox is not in the answer. instead of ta liska ther is only liska and so I had wanted o know what teh czech answer be if the the translation was a part of the answer. Co rika ta liska??

Thanks! I get it now, I think. It's just that in Polish "mówić" is the only verb used in this situation so, as usually, I assumed it would be the same in Czech.
