Font aussi?

Question

Salut! Is it incorrect to say ils font aussi instead of ils font également? The alternate option was ils fabriquent aussi, but font aussi was marked incorrect. Wondering if there is a reason for that or is if acceptable?

Hi Rhea,
Both are similar and both were given as possibilities in the exercise

ils font aussi / également des cartes de Pâques 
ils fabriquent aussi / également des cartes de Pâques

So if you think it has been marked incorrectly, please use the Report It button on your correction board as this will be a system error.
Bonne Continuation!

Bonjour David,
I just looked at this exercise and completed it myself. Everything displays correctly on my end (even this particular sentence/results).  We have recently implemented a new way of displaying submitted results for writing and listening exercises. With this new display, there is no longer any correction shown in red or blue. It simply shows the alternatives: yellow for what was submitted and different from Kwizbot's (but still correct) and green for Kwizbot's answer (highlighting the difference); and if applicable, other possible answers.
However, if this issue persists, do not hesitate to get in touch via our Helpdesk.
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !

Bonjour. This has not been fixed.  "Ils font aussi" is still marked incorrect with "également" as the only correct answer.
