Answer Question
German I "en" Confusion
In module 13 (or perhaps 12) the sentence in English is:
I want to buy this umbrella, please. That one is very small.
I translated to German as follows:
Ich möchte bitte diesen Schirm kaufen. Diesen ist sehr klein.
But, this answer was not accepted as correct and showed the following as the correct answer:
Ich möchte bitte diesen Schirm kaufen. Dieser ist sehr klein.
Shouldn't the "That one" in the second sentence be "DiesEN" as it refers to the umbrella, which is the direct object in the first sentence?
