"O gato" - the male cat, and "O gata" - the female cat. In the english sentence doesn't say which sex is the cat. So I don't understand why "O gato come pão" is not correct?? :/
You have to choose both o gato (masculine) AND a gata (feminine) come pão.
Mark all correct answers.
(I got it wrong too, oops!)
This discussion connects to two exercises. O gato is masculine and a gata is feminine. You need to match the article to the noun so "o gata" and "a gato" are incorrect.
Gata is a female cat, therefore it's suppose to be "A gata come um pão" But it says "o gata". "O" is used for a male.
Thats why O gata can't be the correct answer
you've got to mark both correct answers: O gato AND a gata, otherwise the question will be marked incorrect
Yes, the cat can be either feminine or masculine, but you have to make sure you have the right article with it... like " o gato" and " a gata"....
I know a bit of Spanish so imma go off that
The original word is 'comer' which translates to 'to eat.'
When you want to say something along the lines of 'I eat,' you conjugate 'comer' to 'como, and when you wanna say 'he/she/it eats,' it's 'come'.
"O gato" is the only one you can choose in this example. Other two are incorrect, cause the subjects don't match with the article.

I've seen both gato & gata used for cat in the lessons. Is there any other distinction between the two besides the gender difference?
Chiclet FAIL! The lineup matches the "correct" answer, but Duolingo gives me a raspberry (ブー). Screenshots available.
