"Die Frau spielt."

Translation: The woman is playing.

[bluewasabi24]

Is "spielt" pronounced "shpielt"?
I could be wrong, but the voice-engine-thing makes it sound like "shpielt"

[4oYBIxtO]

The engine is right

[PetitRagondin]

Does 'spielt' mean play in the same contexts as English - as in play a game, play a sport, play an instrument etc? Or is there just one meaning? (and if so, which 'play' is it?). Thanks.

[Girlcatlove1524]

From my knowledge, it is all play. Ex. Ich spiele Brettspiele (I play board games) You can also use spiele for sports and instruments.

[Fran.CH]

"The woman plays" ?

[JonsiMurun]

The women is playing

[mizinamo]

No.

In English, the singular is spelled "woman" with an A, and "women" with an E is the plural.

Having a real hard time hearing what the dude said at normal speed. "Die Frau" just blended into murmur

[sunbeamrapier]

Am I missing something? This course appears to introduce new words without any prior explanation. What is the point of that? Why would I know what spielt meant when I have never seen the word before? Surely it would be appropriate to introduce the word and then ask the user a question about it. Its not easy to guess either... How many women do you know who "play" regularly?

Click the new word you can see the definition

[yashkochar]

Pretty much all the women I know play. But joke aside you are supposed to hover your mouse over the word to see more details.

[dpatkat]

usually a dotted line under a word will mean, click or hover to see definitions.

also I did notice that i sometomes missed or forgot words from earlier lessons. it has helped to redo or use the strengthen option.

good luck, i hope you returned to keep practicing. this is challenging like a fun game...at least now!
