Different languages. È is italian. If your learning italian use è. Thats all you gotta know.
The computer accepts ..lei e' la donna as correct. The phone app does not. Why?
If youre using a smartphone just hold the letter and it will bring up a list of accent options for the vowel.
Usually if you hold whatever the letter is, an additional pop up will appear and you can click on the accent type.
"è" is the 3rd person (he, she, it) conjugation of the verb: essere (to be).
" l'donna " doesn't exist. " l' " is only used before before vowels, e.g: l'ape, l'estate, l'osso, l'uomo...
Because " l' " is used follow with a vowels (a,e,i,o,u), not with consonants.
push down and hold on the e then slide across until you reach the e e with the symbol on. good luck
I don't have an accent on my keyboard. My answer should be accepted. What else can I do?

Both are "the", masculine and feminine respectively, only L' (the) used with nouns beginning with a vowel.
Why isn't (lei è una donna) the same as (lei è la donna)?? Someone answer
the first would mean "she is A woman", the second would mean "she is THE woman"
As another android user, may I suggest holding down the vowel on the keyboard untill the various accent options appear, then swipe your finger so that it lands on the particular accent you need. It takes my keyboard avout two seconds to recognize what I want it to do.
I apologize Duolingo. I didn't realize that in Italian, 'I AM', is spelled with an 'i'. I thought it was a lowercase 'L'.
I have a lot to learn.
Thank you so the gift of languages.
It's a matter relating to the keyboard and the spelling of e' (is) should be considered as good.
I do not have " e " with the accent. I can only translate " is " to " e' "
