"When are you going to court?"

Translation: Hvornår skal du i retten?

[ilmolleggi]

Could you also say "hvornår tager du i retten"?

[NormanNagy1]

excellent question

[frankenwer]

I wrote exactly that and it was marked wrong....

[Gylej-Gulay]

Please? Anyone?

[helrasincke]

Is it possible to use some variant on "hvornår går du i retten?" or is that an overly literal or otherwise unsuitable translation?

[wizardmikex]

So if I understand correctly, "skal" can mean should/must. In this case, could it roughly be translated "when are you du in court" ?

I can also be used to talk about plans in the future.

• Jeg skal på ferie til sommer. (I'm going on vacation this summer.)

• Jeg skal på arbejde senere i dag. (I'm going to work later today)

• I aften skal jeg bare slappe af. (Tonight, I'm simply going to relax.)

[Reina938822]

would 'hvornår går du i retten' also be correct? (same question as helrasincke)

[NormanNagy1]

No, because it would mean "When do you walk to the court".

[Reina938822]

OK, tak Norman(Nagy1)!

[NormanNagy1]

Det var så lidt. :)
To be precise it could also mean "When are you walking to the court?" but the point is that it only refers to that very specific way of getting there.

[Reina938822]

Jeg forstår. Somehow, in my head, I make the connection with 'go' all the time..

Previous exercises in this very unit use går for going to war.It seems inconsistant.They are not walking to war
