    I was going to translate this as "I'm bald" - but it turns out that 'hair' - 'capelli' - has only 1 p. :D

      Which explains why I was just marked wrong for my spelling...

        Oh... I was mad for DL marking this wrong since some typos are allowed.

          I am little confused here. I have only just been introduced to 'cappelli' which was 'hat', even hovering over the word now says 'hat'. Why is the correct answer hats?

            I'm not sure but you can see from the "i" that it has to be plural

                  It happened with me also, DL showed it as 'hat' not as 'hats'

                    It threw me off, too. I was about to put down hats but I wanted to check my translation.

                      I translated. I do not have my hats? Why did it mark me wrong?

                        My hat is gone. I want my hat back.

                          How can I tell that it is me that does not have my hats, not someone else?

                          I knew cappelli was plural because "i miei" is a plural adjective.

                              Ive got not my hat? Seriously??? Thats what it translated in english for me, so it was either a glitch or they need to fix this because i answered it " i do not havr my hat" and i got it wrong...

                              It's probably marked wrong because the answer is 'hats', rather than 'hat'. Hope that clears it up!
