    Does anyone else hear the guy saying "sekvas ilin" instead of "sekvas lin"?

    Yes, I clearly hear ilin too.

      You're right, this is a misread from the voice actors side and/or not being checked properly by moderators.

      Since it is just an extra letter at the beginning of a word this could probably be fixed adequately using an audio editor.

        A lot easier just to change the sentence.

        Well, it's been a year… that extra i is still there.

          Definitly "ilin ĉien" on the audio -- still there three years later. If we want things fixed at the advanced levels, more DUO users have to actually use the advanced levels.

            Why not sin? Does the dog follow someone else?

            I was wondering this too. But when I typed out: Lia hundo sekvas sin ĉien I realized that the dog would be following itself.

            Which would make a great video, but might not be fun for the dog.

                He definitely says "ilin" - I have reported it.

                The voice definitely says 'ilin' instead of 'lin.'

                  Why is ĉie in the accusative?

                  It's the "accusative of direction."
