Tu 'veut' de l'eau ?

Tu 'veut' de l'eau ?

Hi, I answered the question "Tu ___ de l'eau ?" with 'veut' and the bot considered "So close: Don't worry, we considered it correct!"

I came back to the lesson and it is wrong: The subject is 'tu', so it should be "Tu 'veux' de l'eau ?", not 'veut'. That is even the lesson's example.

Why the bot considered 'veut' right? Is that really a possible answer?

This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate vouloir in the present tense in French (Le Présent)"

Hi Marcelo,

Thank you for pointing this out, there was a glitch which has now been corrected and only 'veux' is the accepted answer in 

Tu veux de l'eau 

Bonne Continuation !

Hi Marcelo,

If you believe that there is an error in the lesson then you should report this using the "Report a problem" button top left in the lesson.

First and second person singular conjugation for Vouloir is "veux" ;  third person singular "veut" 

Tu veux de l'eau is therefore the only correct conjugation.

Bonne continuation.
