"Marcus et Corinna libros legunt."

Translation: Marcus and Corinna read the books.

[Theo639847]

"the books" means that these books have been mentioned before. Unspecified it should simply be "books".

[Rae.F]

There is no context here, so either way is valid.

[rcelestestu]

I didn't provide an article for books and it was marked incorrect.

From now on, please copy&paste or screenshot your answer so we can help you find the real reason it marked you wrong.

[JaredMays2]

"Books" should be just fine as there are no articles in Latin

[AaronD.2]

Márcus et Corinna librós legunt.

Márcus Corinnaque librós legunt.

[Mario702739]

Did not accept “Marcus and Corinna are reading books”. ??? Read and are reading

[Rae.F]

That is also a valid translation. If you had no typos, then next time this happens, flag it and report "My answer should be accepted."

[elviswenzer]

marcus and corinna read books is marked wrong what latin sentence does then translate to this english sentence

[Rae.F]

I really don't know what that isn't accepted, as it really ought to be.

[insomniac12345]

It's not that difficult to pronounce a sharp R. So why does the pronunciation dude think the R in Latin is pronounced just as in American?

[Bill210940]

Is "read the books" different from "read books" in Latin?

[Rae.F]

No, Latin has no definite/indefinite articles. But if you wanted to be very clear, you could say "these/those books": "hi libri/illi libri".

"Marcus et Corinna read books" still not accepted!
