Teach by Example
- Review a speaking exercise by recording your own audio comment.
- Focus on correct pronunciation and speaking patterns.
練乗っていません
自転車にを運転しています
There are two ways to say "to ride a bicycle."
自転車に乗（の）る 自転車を運転する
留まっています ; I'm not sure about this.
If you wanted to say that he remains, "留まっています" is right. But if you wanted to say that he is stayin for a few days, we would write "泊まっています".
hey, Aleik,
Great job!
Well, as for your first and second sentences, I would say either 車の中に（座って）います or 車に乗っています.
The former means "(a person) is sitting in the car," which means "just sitting in the car." As opposed to the latter "車に乗っています," this could mean either "(a person) drives," "is (actually) driving" or "(just) sitting in the car."
お母さんは白い自転車を運転しています would be grammatically correct. But that sounds bit awkward to me. I would say "お母さんは白い自転車に乗っています" like Ks-san has suggested.
As Ks-san has already corrected, そのお祖父さんは紫色の家に泊まっています。
Good job!

父は茶色い車の中に練(ne)っていません。
i think you made mistakes about chinese character(kanji)
and you were gonna write 'father is not sleeping in the car', right?
please write like this,
父は茶色い車の中で眠(nemu)っていません/寝(ne)ていません。
*眠る/寝る=sleep
白い自転車を運転しています
家に泊(to)まっています。
父は茶色い車の中で眠(nemu)っていません/寝(ne)ていません。
oops,sorry.
父は茶色い車の中で眠(nemu)っていません/寝(ne)ていません。
