[zeebo7]

Could this not also be बच्चा सेब नहीं खाता है?

[emrys29]

It's always OK to include है

[mercyberg]

Doing so marks the answer as wrong for me, I've reported it

[Madhav_Malhotra]

I think that's fine. I'm a native speaker from New Delhi, so I wouldn't know much about proper grammar though.

[Raja_Hindustani]

How does one know that this is apples and not apple?

[jakeisthesnake]

Should "बच्ची सेब नहीं खाती है" also be accepted?

[PolyglotCanavar]

As a learner, yes it should be.

[DarshKotha2]

This in hindi बच्चा सेब नहीं खाता in english baccā sēba nahim khātā there is no है or हैं

[Owen-Benjambavan]

why is बच्चा सेब खाता नहीं wrong? english has "she does not love me" and "she loves me not" and although one is more common, I understand what is meant.
