Re: Weekly Stats

Today when I opened up my Duolingo, I went to my weekly stats. Instead of seeing stats on how much xp I earned this week, I saw instead how many lessons I did this week:

There are many terms of endearment here, but are they really romantic? Words that suggest ambience and mood -- e.g., candlelight, rapture, chivalry, ambrosia -- are more likely, IMHO, to conjure romantic thoughts.

I’d like to add another thing to that list if you don’t mind:

Charisma.

While, (I think) the Amish do tend to be more in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, rather ...
