"Why should the princess or prince be crowned?"

Translation: Waarom moet de prinses of prins gekroond worden?

[AndrewsSuzy]

I thought "should" is translated "zou/zouden moeten" and "must" "moeten".

[ddqz]

Me too...

[hamishNL]

It is.

[AdeKurniawan92]

But it's marked wrong

[hamishNL]

It's correct, though. [Outside of Duo] I'd say it as 'Waarom zou de prinses of prins gekroond moeten worden?'

zouden = would,
zouden+moeten = should,
zouden+kunnen= could

I wrote: waarom zou de prinses of de prins worden gekroond moeten?

Wrong, of course. How can "zouden" and "moeten" be used here?

[FreekVerkerk]

It is only the order of the words that is wrong: .. gekroond moeten worden.

[anothernobody]

What about "moeten worden gekroond", or "moeten gekroond worden"?

[FreekVerkerk]

both wrong sorry. Because of the OR it is single: MOET

[MentalPinball]

Remember that all the non-finite verbs that are 'tied' to the finite (zou, in this case) go at the end of the clause.

[FreekVerkerk]

... zouden ... gekroond moeten worden" (plural) lijkt me ook goed als we het hebben over een prinses en een prins.
