"Ni äter en måltid."

Translation: You eat a meal.

[GlassBlueBird]

I thought 'du' was 'you'. ???

[_Ulfhednar]

It is, when addressing an individual. "Ni" is how you would address multiple people or a plurality. Kind of like saying "you all". If you were talking to a dating/married couple - and you wanted to ask how they met, you would use "ni" to include both of them in the discussion. It's the "royal you", if you will.

[LaneV88]

I don't know if you speak Spanish but it would be the "ustedes" form meaning like "you all". Of course it's conjugated differently in swedish than in Spanish but you get the gist.

[devalanteriel]

Ni is more like vosotros, depending on from where the Spanish speaker is.

[LaneV88]

Yeah depending where you are for sure. From what I understand, Spain pretty much is the only place that uses vosotros at all. Most of my spanish schooling was South/Central American/Mexican.

[LaneV88]

In fact, I never even learned the vosotros conjugation!

[adrianxu_]

is the same as ustedes

[FredH14]

Duolingo is saying "You eat one meal" and using "one" as "en", instead of a.
Unsure if it would accept a, but is it both?

[devalanteriel]

en translates to both. :)

[devalanteriel]

I'm afraid we have no way of affecting the "type what you hear" exercises.

[tophatofdeath]

Would have appreciated a typo correction because I entered "maltid" as I wasn't sure whether it's a ä or å

[devalanteriel]

The typo system for "type what you hear" exercises is currently broken. Frankly, I'm starting to wonder whether it'll ever be fixed at this point.

[Jussimr]

Why not "you are eating a meal"?

[devalanteriel]

That is indeed accepted.
