Similarly I put, "My class friends don't understand anything" - which wasn't accepted. I think it's because our translating brain works faster than our expressive brain in repetitive exercises.
Understand nothing is fine, but class friends isn’t a natural expression in English.

With the male voice I understand better the difference between "comprend" and "comprennent", the woman seems to always say "comprend"

Whenever I say this particular exercise / sentence into the microphone, Duo doesn't accept. Very strange. Anyone else having this problem?
My pronunciation of the French language is good so it must be an issue with the exercise.

Nevermind. Speaking at regular speed it doesn't pick up the sounds. Speaking very slowly it works just fine.
No point in telling us, your fellow learners, unless you just want our congratulations! Tell us exactly what your answer was, so we can either see a mistake you hadn't noticed, or agree with you that your answer should have been accepted. Otherwise, click on the "report" button, then select "My answer should be accepted".
Sorry, that wasn't my intention at all. I apologise for giving that impression.
