I've noticed that in a couple of words the green owl added a Kasra at the consonant before a double "ii". Why is this? Does this make the sound thrice as long? Is there another reason for this?

That's the Duolingo I always see since about a week. Looking old and tired with many skin folds.
Probably another attempt to scare off as many users as possible.

Yes! Whoever designed it, and whoever accepted the design!

Il problema è sapere chi sono "loro", a chi assomigliano i francesi. Non esistono. Nessuno assomiglia a un altro O, più probabilmente, si faceva riferimento ad un particolare modo di essere o ad un aspetto culturale/storico. — tranne forse nelle famiglie E nemmeno così :D

Embora conheça essa frase, não sei por que li: “o minino tem uma fantasia de leão” e pensei: Ah, gatinho maluco!

Em espanhol usamos a palavra “minino” para nos referirmos a um gato: menino ⇔ minino.
