"The child is drinking a glass of juice."

Translation: Het kind drinkt een glaasje sap.

I wrote "het kind is een glaasje sap aan het drinken" and it said it's wrong. But it's literally what it means!! Why?

[beloeng]

Anyone? :)

[El2theK]

It is accepted, at least for the last year.

Why is glas spelt with one a while glaasje is spelt with two?

[bradymoses]

Why is it 'het kind' instead of 'de kind' here?

[El2theK]

It's always het kind.

[bradymoses]

Ah I must have had that one filed incorrectly in the memory bank. Thanks!

Why is 'het kindje' wrong?

[xMerrie]

'Het kindje' is accepted.

[stefan_6495]

It didn't for the question where I was given three options. Good to know its correct though, thanks

Glaasje sap means a small glass of juice right ? If i want to say a normal size of glass, would it be glaas sap ?

[GertjanNL]

'Een glas sap', yes.
