"नेहा की माँ दुकान गयी है।"

Translation: Neha's mother has gone to the market.

It said that I have to say "shop" or "market" instead of "store"... Pretty sure "store" is still good though, right?

[emrys29]

Shop and store are the proper translation of दुकान. Market could be मार्केट or बाज़ार.

[StormMaashrooms]

Cool! Thanks! Hopefully the people who make the course will see this...

[cro846409]

People say "Store" all the time in india while referring to a "दुकान".
it should be accepted.

Why doesn't Neha's mother get the respectful हैं here?

[Kowaz]

Maybe it's an older person who is talking.

[Angela358686]

I've noticed that no one's mother, aunt or grandmother gets the respectful हैं . Only the fathers, uncles and grandfather's get it. They must have paid for premium ;)

[SamJustin201]

I've tried to translate "has gone" or "has come" in other sentences with this past tense construct, but they aren't accepted. I also tried to use "went" in this sentence, but it says "has gone" is required...

Is there something I'm missing? Or is it just another beta bug?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT:
So I saw another person clarify this in another sentence discussion. Here is the answer:

When the sentence uses this construction without the auxiliary verb है (or its appropriate conjugations), it is treated as the preterite tense in English.
If the sentence has the auxiliary verb at the end, it is treated as the simple perfect tense in English.

This information is secondhand, so I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate. Is there any native speaker who can confirm this?

[vinay92]

Can confirm. गयी है=has gone, गयी=went, गयी थी=had gone.

[Nikesan3]

Much appreciated.

[guigarfr]

Thanks for your reply. I'd like to know too! +1

[AugustusMTG]

Went to / has gone to
Fix it!

Dukan isn't market lol; bazaar is

[aaricia.ponnet]

दुकान should be translated as 'shop' or 'store', not as 'market'.

[learnlangu679203]

"Neha's mother has gone to market" marked incorrect.

[Sam362597]

It would have to be 'the market', not just 'market'. There is a phrase 'gone to market' but it applies to animals, especially cattle, that have been taken to a livestock market to be sold, and you probably don't want to say that Neha's mother has been sold off at auction to the highest bidder.
