    My answer is "Mia sorella non è come questo." It is right, isn't it? grammatically.

      That's what I tried and it was wrong.

        I tried that too, but instead of "questo" I write "questa".

            When speaking of family, as long as the word is unmodified you can omit the article. So, you can say "mio fratello" but not "miei fratelli". (It would be "i miei fratelli")

              You "must" omit the article.
