apprendre allemand

Why is “ils préfèrent apprendre allemand” marked as a wrong answer? I thought either “allemand” or “l’allemand” was correct here.

Bonjour Chuck,

"Only in the phrase "parler + [language]" can you use both forms, with or without le."

J'apprends l'allemand = I learn German

Je parle l'allemand - x allemand = I speak German

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
