It can be 'the elephant does not eat grass' .... Even elephant does not eat grass is right

So if this sentence had "haiñ" at the end, then it would be "the elephant is not eating grass"?
No. The हैं at the end of the sentence wouldn't make any difference to the overall meaning. In fact, I suggest you not to drop it as most Hindi speakers don't.
To say - The elephant is not eating grass - you would say,
हाथी घास नहीं खा रहा है।
Why isn't "Elephants don't eat grass"? I understand the verb has not been conjugated to plural but it's far more natural sounding in English
Actually you can't learn a new language comparing it to mother tongue... It will be weird at timed
Why we use before elephant 'An'..because they didn't say ..एक हाथी घास नही खाता ।।
In English you can't omit the article - you need either "this/that", "the" or "an".
This answer did not have 'eat' as an option - when i selected eats it marked it as wrong.
Mene shehi li kha magar mera galat dhikha rahahe 'An elephant does not eat grass' this quisen is rong

Shouldn't there be a hota, if it's a general sentence like An elephant does not eat grass? Without the hota it seems it says: The elephant does not eat grass. @vinay92 pls? TNX
