Man, Ella eats so much, I am surprised she hasn't died of gastro-intestinal rupture... Surely eating that much on a regular basis is bad for one's health!

Manzana is a ''female'' noun, when words en un ''a'' it's used las( sorry my bad english...i'm learning)

It's like with "vestido," which is a masculine noun. It does not matter whether it is "ella" wearing it or "él" as far as agreeing genders is concerned. The gender of who might be wearing a dress, that is a noun thing, has no correspondance to how genders must correspond, like with a dress being of a white color where this would be "blanco" and not "blanca" because "vestido" is of a male gender..

I think this can help:las and manzanas both have an a and los pescados both have an o so they go together hope it works P.S I'm a kid
Does it matter when it says "Ella come el pescado." Can you say, "She eat(s) the fish."?

Lo de los pescados es un poco extraño. Nadie en condiciones normales diría esta frase

The word "pescado" is masculine, so the plural "pescados" must take masculine plural, which is "los".
They gave me one question, and when I answered it correctly, they said it was wrong, and the results they reveild had a different question all together! ,They corrected me on a different question , than they gave me at the begining question they asked me! Has this happened to any one else?
The literal translation should include pez, i was told only dead fish are pescado.
Not to be rude but out of curiousity, would one normally eat a living fish? Haha.
confused. both apple and fish are pluralized options but not sure why it would be fish bc "o" is a masculine ending right? #frustratedbyrules

How is it wrong when i am selecting the missing word and it doesnt mention anything about fish. The sentance is "ella come los" . . . your options are pescados and manzanas. In this instance there is no wrong answer

It is wrong because "apples" can only take the feminine plural form "las". Since it ends in "los", you instantly know that it can't be "manzanas".

For me the other option was 'manzanas'. Shouldn't both be right then? I guess there's something wrong here

"Apple" can be plural.
One apple - Singular
Two apples - Plural
It is wrong to say "two apple".
Manzana is a feminine noun, so to be correct it would have to be "Ella come las ..." instead of "los". Hope that helps. :)
OK. My choices were fish or apples. How am I supposed to know which one she's eating?

Both options it listed were correct so im confused. When its a fill in the blank, how can you tell what they want you to put? "Ella come los manzanas" would have been correct too wouldnt it?

Nevermind, I figured it out on my own: it couldnt have been los manzanas because the plural for apples uses "las" not "los." Very clever, Duo. You're getting more creative, and slightly more difficult.

"Fishes" is only correct when referring to several types of fish. Any other time, the plural is the same as the singular.
Examples;
The shark is a type of fish (the shark is only type of fish).
The blue whale and The Great White are two types of fishes (two different types).
THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE OTHER ONE BECUZ IF THERE IS A AT THE END ITS FOR A GIRL LIKE IN ELLA AND pescados HAS AN O WICH IS FOR DUDES
shouldnt it be either one like for real now come on like frfr and ella sure does eat a lot of things
It gave me manzana and pescado. Picked manzana cause it was more logical...got it wrong...Duolingo fix ur code ❤❤❤❤❤❤
