Elena Bogomolova, I consider you the best translator on the site. But why did you translate this sentence as a question?

Elena Bogomolovaadded a comment 5 лет назад

I'm far from being the best. To my mind, this phrase is more natural as a question. There's a problem when posting a question in the app, as far as I know; that's why many of us here add the question mark when translating.

Lidia, PRODUCE AN YACHT is incorrect.
