How is the -uj ending pronounced in Tiuj ?

[makis_eo]

It is pronounced as if you were saying "tiui".

If you go to the comments section for a lesson, you can see a little speaker icon next to the sentence. If you click on it, you can hear how the sentence is pronounced.

[Reziah]

I didn't even notice that it shows up in the comment section even if it doesn't show up in the question. That's quite handy, thanks!

[Siavel]

This sentence doesn't have a speaker icon.

[hellomidnight]

It does for me! Are you using the app, or a desktop version of the site?

[Siavel]

I'm on desktop and it does not. Possibly because it's a multiple choice question, not one with a box for typing in.

[danielqsc]

For me it also doesn't appear in the multiple choice question, but it does appear here in the comments section.

Why is "tiuj avojn kontraŭas ĉion" not correct?

[rendorHaevyn]

Hmm, I would have thought that "ĉion" were appropriate here as the object.

[DavidWolff17]

Not after a preposition. "Tiuj avoj kontraǔas ĉion" would work.

[paulschlesier]

Should be:
Tiuj avoj estas kontraŭ ĉion.

[DavidWolff17]

Not after a preposition. "Tiuj avoj kontraǔas ĉion" would work.

[paulschlesier]

Ah, why not "after a preposition"? Wherw can I find a rule about that?

[DavidWolff17]

Try http://literaturo.org/HARLOW-Don/Esperanto/rules.html#prepositions. (Briefly: Rule 8 of the sixteen rules.)

Or, in any Duolingo exercise that includes a preposition, check the discussion. It's a common question.

Koran dankon!
