"Vates itinera faciunt."

Translation: Bards make journeys.

[Mattitiahu]

I still refuse to translate vātēs simply as 'bards'. The primary meaning is a divinely inspired seer or oracle. 'Soothsayer' is better, but kinda antiquated English. 'bards' (in the idea as divinely inspired poets through which the god speaks) is only a secondary meaning.

Came here to say the same. :/

Have you tried reporting it? Maybe they'll fix it if you do. Like you answer correctly and then report

He's so eloquent.

They take trips, maybe?

[SteveSwart1]

Indeed! Many Duolingo renderings are stiff, literal and quite unnatural in English.

[SteveSwart1]

Bards take trips should be acceptable--more colloquial in English.

[els976518]

You yourself use bards and seers both for 'vates'. So why is this translation wrong
