"Kan du låna mig hundra kronor?"

Translation: Can you lend me a hundred crowns?

[Myron_Smith]

Can you lend one hundred crowns to me?

[Zmrzlina]

No, but I just gave you a lingot instead.

[AaronQualtrough]

My saving for Europe is shocking at the moment! This phrase may come in handy...

[soundspirit]

In case anyone is wondering... 100 krona ~ $11.47 in US dollars :)

[daneestone2]

why not add the 'ett' in front of the 'hundra'? ----kan du låna mig ett hundra kronor?

[Arnauti]

You can do both that and use the compound word etthundra, but we usually don't. hundra on its own means 100 so adding ett is redundant.

[chollmann]

As Swedes write the numbers to 36 as words, 100 should be a valid solution here.

[Arnauti]

We don't accept using numbers when writing in Swedish in this course, since you won't get any practice on those words then. But in English it's fine.

[Mr.X952790]

Why do you insist to accept "a hundred"? Just "hundred" seems to be suitable.

[Grace_Lejonet]

I'm English and it sounds very wrong to me without either "a" or "one" before the hundred

[Andy642820]

And Swedish is not English. Hundra is a hundred by default

[JoseeV64]

Does att låna mean both "to lend" and "to borrow"?

[Wingwing337282]

Nej tack

[Suuz790947]

I cannot get past this as a speaking exercise. The hundra kronor is already marked wrong before i get to that part or, if i get to it, itbis marked wrong. I am not sure what i am doing wrong here, but before the update i have never had any trouble with the speaking exercises

Please write a bug report (support.duolingo.com).
Sometimes the same happens to me. As far as I see the only way to get out of the loop is to check that you can't speak at the moment. ;-( You then get the same sentence to translate.
