"Celle qui est en soie est plus chère."

Translation: The one that is made of silk is more expensive.

I think that the English translation "The one made of silk is more expensive" should be accepted. Reported 2020-06-24.

'That which is in silk is more expensive' is more literal, but also more clumsy. I put 'The silk one is more expensive' - obviously too brief for Duo!

Me too

[effyleven]

Anyone saying, "This silken one..."? Or is that now considered archaic use of language?
(Notice that it uses the suffix "en," same as in French, eh?)

[Jennie269348]

What about the silk one?

[DianaM]

The silk one is more expensive. Accepted.

[MariaIramendy]

Doesn't the English language use the word made out of?

[DianaM]

The phrase "made out of" is in some of the accepted answers. What was your entire answer?

[Scorpion.Heath]

"Celle en soie est plus chère." Is this correct and can be an alternate expression?

[MarryKurie]

Would it be okay as well to say: 'The one of silk is more expensive'? Duolingo didn't accept that. I think it would be okay, but I'm no Native Speaker for English...

[DianaM]

No, that is a direct translation, but it doesn't work in English. We would say, "the silk one" or "the one made of silk".
