Vous êtes censés ________ sur le trottoir. You're supposed to walk on the sidewalk.. You're supposed to walk on the sidewalk.
You are supposed to walk (ones/yourself) on the side walk. Why is the use of "se promener" incorrect? ie. Vous êtes censés te promene sur le trottoir.
This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing "to walk" with se promener/promener/marcher/aller à pied in French"

Hi Stephen,
This is how the sentence goes if you were to conjugate it :
Je suis censé/e me promener ...
Tu es censé/e te promener...
Il/elle/on est censé/e se promener...
Nous sommes censés nous promener...
Vous êtes censé/s vous promener...
Ils/elles sont censés/es se promener...
But I suspect they wanted you to use the verb 'marcher'??
Hope this helps!
