"The bottle is made of glass."

Translation: Die Flasche ist aus Glas.

When i hovered over "made" it gave "machte" but i was marked down for using "Die Flasche macht aus Glas." Why would the hover be conjugated for "Ich machte"? Is machen appropriate for something like glass?

[Jeetsb]

same doubt

[surak]

I would like to have learnt "made of" before getting here

[heshmati]

Can someone give a more fancy way of saying this in German? so that it reflects the part ' is made of ' rather than simply saying ' is from '. Danke

[-Herbstzeitlose-]

You could say "Die Flasche besteht aus Glas".

[heshmati]

Danke sehr.

Lol, they seem to have updated it to say besteht, but not included it as a possible translation of the the word made in the list.

[TheGuitGuy]

So does this literally translate to "the bottle is of glass"?

[8KAITO8]

I would go for "The bottle is out of glass".

[HappyDinnerparty]

Why not Die Flasche ist aus Glas hergestellt?

Two of these were the exact same answer
