"Yours is a common question."

[ziggKogg]

Is "La tua domanda è comune" a proper sentence?

[joedamico]

No expert here but as a statement of fact "La tua domanda è commune" ("Your question is common" ) seems valid to me.

[Catia9]

I got that wrong too :( - guess it's not as accurate a translation as theirs.

[giovanna60615]

I find it best when translating to stick as close as possible to the original sentence, not changing word order or getting too idiomatic. DL seems to be pretty literal-minded.

[Espygur]

È una domanda comune. Is not right?

[remington44]

Why is "La" needed

[clleven]

How is one supposed to know the person asking is female?

[Evandro12085]

Even if the person is a man, "la tua" is for the "domanda". Domanda is a female word.

[Solivagance]

so when is 'fa il' used, then?
