In the quiz I got 'Elle trouve ________ beau'. I answered: que t'es. However, this was counted wrong and instead it should be que tu es. Would my contraction be incorrect?

This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing "to find" and opinions with the verb "trouver" in French"
Asked 5 years ago

Bonjour Marrit !
Usually, “tu” is never elided, though you may use the contracted form of ‘tu’ in very informal everyday speech (preferably when talking within a family setting).
Saying, “que tu es beau” seems elegant and hence is more acceptable.
Hope this helps !

The subject "tu" will not shorten. What ever shortens to "t' " is te, the pronoun.
