Hi Sylvia,
You can say either -
'Le chômage est un gros problème'
or
Le chômage, c'est un gros problème
Both meaning,
'Unemployment is a big problem'
Hope this helps!
Is it possible to say: le chômage c'est un gros problème - with c'est instead of just est?

It's a French style thing. In French you often times repeat the subject.

thx, I just asked because it counts as wrong if you put it this way (with c'est) in the test ;)
