"Qual è il tuo lavoro?"

Translation: What is your occupation?

[ardahatunoglu]

Perche "What is your profession?" e falso?

[Nate585]

Shouldn't "What is your job" be accepted?

[jo2398758]

I had the same problem, they are synonyms

[TerhiVee]

Agree - that should be accepted, surely!

[emes01]

Because this is Sparta!

[chuckdietrick]

why is qual e used instead of che

[Wichito390]

Why "Qual'e" is wrong... is it have the same meaning?

[FunkyKoval]

"Qual'è" is an abbreviation for "quale è" but we have il lavoro here - masculine.

[Olivia252402]

Sorry to repeat a previous question but why is 'qual' used instead of 'che'? Is the former used in questions and the latter as a sort of conjunction i.e. meaning 'that/ which'?

[omid.zare.7]

it's the same with : che lavoro fai?

[banay]

is it supposed to be- lavori?
or it is lavoro as a name- "what is your job"?

[mangoHero1]

Yes, lavoro is used a noun to mean job or occupation not as lavorare the verb to work

[Wira_basa]

[QUESTION]

Is this similar with "Qual è il tuo occupazione?"

Grazie mille per le vostre risposte.

[Rhona837496]

I said, 'what do you work at'. This is acceptable in English.

[Rhona837496]

'what work do you do' means the same thing.

[PaulE-S]

Doesn't seem very authentic shouldn't it be "che lavoro fa?"

My dictionary gives work or job!!!!!
