"They eat"

Translation: Sie essen

[chubbard]

"Sie isst" says "She eats". It's "essen" because here "sie" means "they" (plural), and "essen" is the form of the verb "to eat" that goes with plurals.

[silvroz15]

why no sie isst? why essen???

[jinjinqiao]

Here " SIE" means THEY, plural, so it is " Sie essen"

[lolothe2nd]

Why not Ihr esst?

[tweedledee]

I believe "Ihr" is better translated as "you all" or "y'all", an informal plural you.

[Hohenems]

I am not a native speaker, but I believe that "Ihr" is not a valid translation of "they".

[Bedlam]

why not Die essen?
