Did my teacher make a mistake on my homework?

Question

He gave us fill in the blanks and for the sentence: ¿Qué _____ Ud. en la bolsa? there are only these words left: llevan, decir, poder, and hacen. I thought llevan was the answer, but it would have to be lleva according to the correct conjugation. Im confused!

Answer 1

"Llevan" would be correct if "Uds." was used instead of " Ud.". Maybe it was a typo?

Answer 2

The other possibility is that rather than Ud., it was supposed to say Uds. (or maybe he thinks that Ud. is the correct abbreviation for both usted/ustedes, which I doubt).

I meant to say that I doubt he would make that mistake.. - bill1111, Dec 13, 2010

Answer 3

I agree. Is it possible that the correct answer for this question was used up on another question, incorrectly?

Answer 4

I agree with you as it appears neither of the words listed would fit. Are you sure he didn't want you to choose the correct verb and also put it into the correct tense.

Answer 5

Either he wrote the wrong conjugation for llevar or you used the wrong answer somewhere else.
