"Ela não dorme quando toma vinho."

Translation: She does not sleep when she drinks wine.

I wrote "She doesn't sleep when drinks wine" but it said wrong. Same person is making it. Why i need to write "she" second time?

"when drinks wine" does not make sense in English. "when drinking wine" might, though.

[ilovekari]

why isn't it (ela nao dorme quando bebe vinho)

[incogmax]

tomar and beber has almost the same meening in this context. (tomar like "take in(to)" the stomach.

[geeaiye]

so why was takes wine wrong then

[pinkybrainy]

What's doing with "she doesn't sleep whenever she drinks wine"?

[BGRommel]

Why is there not a second ela in the sentence?

[incogmax]

you do not need eu,tu,ele,ela,... if the subject is clear from context or the conjugation of the verb.
for example: try to avoid "eu" because the verb form is (always) unique!

[DuolingoQueen96]

I put 'she does not sleep when drinking wine' shouldn't than have been accepted?

[Danmoller]

That would be "Ela não dorme quando está bebendo vinho".

Beacuse drinking implies she is drinking at the same time she is trying to sleep,

[JamWowz]

When I "take" wine I don't necessarily drink it ;-)

[djeidot]

Yes, "tomar" could also mean take the wine from another person. But that would hardly be the cause for your lack of sleep ;)

[RebeccaHillary]

Unless you feel guilty about it. Or if the other person has been drinking far too much and you're so angry with them that you can't sleep... Probably a little too much subtext though!
