"Their enemies are not wise."

Translation: Hostes eorum non sunt sapientes.

[ArielMedin948128]

Supposedly Latin has some flexibility in terms of positions but the system does not want it often; it insists that the non should be before the linking verb and other verbs. Yet the system does not add any narrative explanations. This is really a pedagogical failure.

[Lemma1789]

You need way more attention.

[Phmagnabosco]

Hostes eorum sapientes non sunt should be accepted

[DieLegende2]

Yes, just report it

[SikkhapatG]

Hostes eorum sunt non sapientes

is incorrect, why?

[HighprinceVader]

Because non always goes before the verb

[John374622]

Duo does not like earum.

[Sninguistics]

Hostes earum sapientes non sunt is considered a typo as of 7 Nov '19.

SECOND TIME
Correct answer is wrong.
I also lost 100s of lingots today.
Has this got something to do with my app UPDATE today?

[GaiusSolitaire]

Which correct answer? You need to report it with the flag button, and post your correct answer here so everyone can see what's wrong.

[Anthony928276]

I also lost about 800 after upgrading the app.
I've had NO REPLY to a complaint (Administrator - are you listening?)

[VesperEule]

Is 'sapiens' singular, and 'sapientes' plural?

[HighprinceVader]

Yes, at least in the nominative.

[Sninguistics]

Can inimicus also be used for 'enemy'?

[DieLegende2]

I'd think so, yeah, but of course you'd have to use the plural form "inimici"

[Sninguistics]

Sadly it marks inimici as incorrect, and I'd reported it—no word tho

[Olivier13090]

Sapientes is for wise ? Much more for scholars, for example or experts, or clever.

[Anthony928276]

What?
I just made a correct answer, no typos, and it's marked RED????

[Lemma1789]

With the constant change between 'is' and 'ille', I wonder why 'illorum' was not accepted.

Hostes illorum non sunt sapientes

[Emile_Bouwer]

Why do I feel like it's odd that "eorum" doesn't change to agree with the object of the sentence ?

[DieLegende2]

Considering the sentence doesn't have an object, I should think this feeling to be quite unjustified.

[Emile_Bouwer]

I meant to say the subject of the sentence. My apologies.
Does "eorum" remain the same regardless of the gender or number of the noun?

[HighprinceVader]

It does. It means "of them" and only agrees with the "them" in that phrase.
