The same thing happened to me yesterday. Why on earth would you SHORTEN a course? They also changed several things on my snake. I now have to do EACH step separately to make it legendary. I cannot remember what it was before but it wasn't this. I do not know who is making these changes on DL but the...

Have not been paying a whole lot of attention until now, but is there a thread on here discussing hobune stream? How do I find the comment #? Or maybe it is no longer possible to find the number? I am studying Italian. I previously used SD for word order guidelines when making a sentence (especially...

I have not read all the posts in this thread. Is A/B testing for no sentence discussions still on going? (I found a post on an 8/14 reddit discussion page) I got on DL to do a lesson today and can no longer access any of the SD. If I copy and paste a sentence into my search bar it goes to DL's snake...

Back to "Loading" Assuming it is a DL issue and will get fixed again, eventually. It was fine last night.

My tree is back and not saying "Loading." Last update still says 9/2. I'll take what I can get at this point.

I posted on chat but will try here as well. Today when I go to my progress page I have no tree, no words or skills. It just has a constant downloading circle going. Is anyone else having this issue? I have problems with my tree here, anyway, but I could always get it eventually. I am doing Italian a...

This should be interesting. I use my laptop and vary the browser, depending on the problems I have with access to my (somewhat broken) tree here on duome. I also do things on the snake (on DL) as well, almost daily. I don't pay for anything on DL's horrible site. Today, horror of horrors, my lingots...

I clicked just to see. It says "subscribers." Is there a fee for this? I am on a laptop, so no App for me.

dxtoeppe

Is this for diamond league only or just paying subscribers? I never see places listed like this.

Since the Barbie movie just came out I thought about my first real doll, not just a baby doll. I do remember the zebra striped bathing suit. Eventually the elastic wore out and the top drooped down to her waist. Very inappropriate back then, perfectly fine on European beaches nowadays. After countle...

gmads Not a lot of time to "play" in the next couple of days. However, I did download the zip file, found stories and they actually worked. I do not have time to do one, so it will be interesting to see if I get any points or if I can only just review them. Still, better than nothing. The...

Sorry, going back to Stories on the website snake JudieLC . I tried this link and it took me to the snake, nothing to do with stories. https://www.duolingo.com/practice-hub/stories I tried the dumbbell and it said practice. Took me to a lesson somewhere on my snake. No story. Googled some sites, mos...

Depends whether you've got a Blitzableiter and are aware of what a flash of lightning can do to you.... Not funny, sechs minus, setzen oder besser gleich nach und Hausaufgaben Physik machen....

What about housing layouts? Like you say about Nepal, it's obviously a practical thing to be close to, but above, your pooing natural providers! :) - to generally keep an eye on them or prevent them getting robbed. I know (historically) lots of British/Scottish/Welsh whatevever farmers used to herd...

Apparently, I know nothing! I had not heard of most of these languages, and had no clue what country they were spoken in. This is NOT a great boost for my ego.

I can now proudly (?) say I cannot spell in 2 languages- NL English and Italian. I had to look these up just now- arctic, vacuum and narcissistic. If I took spelling in Italy I would flunk. These trip me up- cappotto (coat), cappello (cap), capello (hair), pomeriggio (afternoon) and pasticceria (bak...

I click on here, then clicked Privacy settings. Box for "make my profile public" has a check. Sent you a PM so I do not keep trying to fix this here on this thread. Thanks!

My tree disappears intermittently. Usually, if I go to DL and do some sort of lesson, then comeback here, it reappears again. It did not do this Tuesday, so thought I had lost it. Showed up today. Still have not gotten the issue fixed with my tree. All my remaining topics stuck on #1 and cannot prog...

I am new to this forum. Is there a way to disable or block chat in the settings? I get this bizarre noise and then at the top of my ribbon, it says new chat message. Took me forever to track down the noise and find it very irritating. Thanks

In the den, next to the kitchen, we had wall to wall SHAG carpeting that was avocado, gold and orange. Had to make sure the color scheme carried through. I hated all those colors, and still do. Wonder why? But then,my bedroom was bright blue and lime green, PLAID. Furniture was painted to match the ...

Here's what I remember, not necessarily "techie" The Avon lady, showing up at the door selling cosmetic products. She would even leave samples. I remember her leaving little mini lipsticks to try out the colors. The were about the size of your thumbnail. My mom would give them to me, and a...

I suffer from insomnia, so probably would not work for me. But, can you imagine if this does work and you also sleep walk? You can get your steps in AND learn a language, all before going to work. I have tried tapes with subliminal messages, telling me I am relaxed, safe, etc. Time to sleep. Sounds ...

Butterfly in Arabic: فراشة

Pronunciation: farasha

The closest I can find is "farfalla" in Italian.

Only a beginner in Italian, but I was warned on DL forum to be careful using this word, it has a sexual connotation. Someone said they liked a person's butterfly (tattoo)and well...

So much fun when I don't speak Spanish(?) or computer. It is 128KB. Type of file says XLS. Looks like yours says open with: Excel. That is not an option for me.

I installed LibreOffice and then tried again. Looked at previous and latest downloads. I do not think it finished correctly? It does not have .xls after the file name. Any way to to get it to finish?

Not a techie. Tried to download it and then open it. Unable to do so- It compared it to 11699 file types. I am on a laptop using Microsoft 10. Any suggestions?

Since it is early in my language journey, pasticceria is my favorite word so far. Have to keep the priorities straight when learning vocabulary.
