Why does it call colour less preferable than color?!? Canadian spirit says bring on the u!
And me. The sentence I translated before this one was, "La kolorblinda viro ne ludas." I put, "The colourblind man does not play." This was marked as "almost correct", with the word "colourblind" underlined to indicate that (according to Duo, who must be an American owl) it was wrong! To be fair, that was the first time my "British English" spelling had been marked wrong. I did report it.
Well, to be fair, Duo does use the American flag for English, so they aren't exactly hiding where their loyalties lie lol
I usually write without the U but my new iPad "corrects" it so I had almost right too...
Does this mean that a particular color I'm looking at is beautiful? Or could I just be saying that color is beautiful and I like colorful things (as opposed to black and white or something)?
We are tasked with translating "The color... " implying that it's only one colour under discussion.
so, I can't trill r, so I 'tap' it instead for the trill r. But because I can't and the 'l' in this word is so close by, I'm getting tongue tied over this one word 'koloro' hahaha.
Try to tap your tongue in the same place your tongue is when you pronounce 'l', 'd', or 't'. It's hard to get used to but it does help. Don't put your tongue in the same place that you do when you pronounce 'v'. Here's an interesting video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ld3A3QCpXd4&t=69s Hope it's useful
my tongue isn't involved in the sound of 'v', so I'm not going to put it against my bottom lip. o.o and yeah, I already do put my tongue where I pronounce my l or d, that doesn't me though haha
I find annoying to spend so much time typing in English and having only to guess to form an Esperanta sentence.
