# Why do you only accept certain answers and how to report alternatives?
## Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in your language learning journey, even though you know your answer is right?
This can be annoying and demotivating, especially when you’re working hard to learn a new language. But what’s the reason behind this?
It has to do with the structure of the language you’re learning. In English, you can often change the order of words in a sentence without changing the meaning. But not all languages are like that. Some languages have more flexibility in how they arrange words, while others have less.
To make sure you have the best language learning experience, the app only accepts the correct translation that follows the structure you learned in the lessons. However, if you think your answer is right and should be accepted, you can send it to us as an alternative solution. Our language team will check it and add it to the app later if it meets our standards.
#### **Submit alternative answer**
To send us an alternative answer, you can report it directly from the app and from the lesson where you want to submit it. Just follow these steps:
Click/Tap on the “help” button.
Click/Tap on "Report an error."
Please share your alternative answer with us
Our language team will review and add these alternative answers to our database. Our goal is to help you have a smooth and fun language learning journey. So, if you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to contact us. We’re always here to support you!
Enjoy learning with Ling!
