Esperanto in Scotland, Chapter 3, Exercise 3 One possible answer (yours will differ). Mia amiko ŝatas muzikon kaj katojn. Li lernis kanti kun sia fratino. Meaning: My friend likes music and cats. He learned to sing with his sister. Check: ŝati takes a direct object (-n). "sia" is used because it refers back to the subject "li"; if the sister belonged to someone else you would write "lia".
