@Explorer The problem is once I put a letter in, I couldn't change it. Any tips? I got those exercises in French recently and I hate them, because they are way too easy and you can't hit "Make harder" to just type in the whole sentence when you're on the dektop. to change a letter you hav...

I've just tried it and it seems fun. I'm Dodoa on there too if anyone wants to add me as a friend.

Je vais être là pour parler, demain.

Malheureusement, je vais aller au théâtre ce soir, alors je ne peux pas chatter.

Unfortunately I'm going to the theatre tonight so I can't chat.

I treat it like any other work I do on my computer. I have a goal of how much I want to accomplish before I take a break, then do that. Some days I'm able to focus without any problems. Other days I'm stressed and have a hundred things bouncing around in my head. If one of them is important enough t...

I'm thinking about taking a break from Duo as soon as they force the new home screen on me, just take my language learning somewhere else for a few months. I'll probably be back, because I don't like leaving things unfinished, but a few months should be enough for them to notice a drop in their numb...

Do you mean in questions? As in: Qui est-ce que le cheval aime ? or Qu'est-ce qui est noir ? etc.? In this case the first Que/Qui is the question word and depends on whether you're asking about a Person/Who (Qui) or a Thing/What (Que). The second que/qui depends on wheter you're asking about the sub...

I report missing translations quite regularly on duolingo and up to around the time the forums closed I used to get those "Your translation was accepted" mails quite regularly. Maybe one or two a week, I think. It might have been two or three weeks between mails sometimes too, but since I ...

I'll be there tonight. I might be a bit late if dinner takes longer than expected though.

As far as I know it usually comes down to glottal stops (short obstruction of air flow by the vocal cords during speech like in uh-oh) between vowels that prevent them from flowing together. According to my quick Wikipedia "research" Serbo-Croatian uses them a lot beween words and so does ...

Today 7PM CEST works for me too.

Dodoa

That's great, I won't be able to join today, but next week should work for me.

Dodoa

I only just saw this thread and I'm interested in general, but can't make it today. If you do this again I'll see if I can join.

Honestly, in terms of learning colloquial vs. formal language, my experience has mostly been the opposite. I've been told by English native speakers, that while my English is very good, I speak like I'm trying to write an essay. Learning formal language is great if you want to write essays and poli...

I'm from Austria and I had very limited English in primary school (4 years from age 6 to age 10), which I would describe as more getting a taste of the language than structured learning. Then in secondary school we started with English as a main subject (year 5) i.e. 4-5 hours a week and with severa...

I absolutely agree with you on those translations. They are unusual to the point where I would call them wrong everywhere outside of poetry and such where you might have a good reason to use them for emphasis.

I got Singaporean South African Welsh for dialect, and English Norwegian Swedish for native language, which are all wrong. It's German, but I feel a bit proud that it thought I could be a native speaker. No idea where it got it's dialect guesses from, since I think I've spoken to a Welsh person once...

Yeah, I don't think so. I like discord and I'm active in a couple of servers there, but I only use it for very specific settings. Small communities or friend-groups (no more than 20-50 people, depending on how active they are) who I mostly know in real life and share specific interests with (e.g my ...
