Nettoie vs nettoye

Nettoye the lesson gives Nettoye as the alternate spelling of nettoie but the quiz doesn't follow your lesson...I tried it just to see if it would be accepted...surely it should be marked "correct"

Hi Marnie,

As Chris says only 'nettoie' ( je / il/elle/on ) is correct.

The alternative spelling -aie/-aye is available only for verbs ending in -ayer. Nettoyer dos not fall under this category.
