I did wonder if they came back every time Duo creates a new set that they feel they have to inflict on us

When I was doing that bit of the Spanish tree, some of my British suggestions were accepted reasonably quickly. But I also know that I got a handful of emails recently which is something like 6 months since I last touched at that tree. Acceptance is highly variable and I had one from when I was doin...

I tried version 4.18.4 (which is already with health) and there it still doesn't work 🤬 so apparently there's no way to avoid health on the app anymore (except maybe downloading the cracked duolingo plus app? have to try that) Create a classroom - it's how I got around health on the app With one of...

His suggestions of reading in the target language for fun are all very well - but I don't understand enough to be able to.

Not even a children's book (may be one you've read in your native language) or a newspaper article where you possibly know the sort of things it's likely to be saying.?

This is one suggested way from Duo's blog https://blog.duolingo.com/whats-the-best-way-to-learn-with-duolingo/ And the new home screen layout/path as detailed here https://blog.duolingo.com/new-duolingo-home-screen-design/ is their attempts to guide users through the tree/path in this way If I do ea...

If I aced lessons 1 & 2, what does that have to do with 3. The vocabulary & lessons are different. Same thing for 4 & 5. This is SO stupid. I wish they would already fix it. :x BUT for some people it might be the right thing. If you know some of the language when you start then the init...

This one maybe is about the right place on the list

Still like that today but October and subsequent months look OK.
But thought I'd flick back to 2021 and August and September are wrong there too which makes me wonder how messed up the days of the weeks are too

I feel like this all the time. Every time I make a silly mistake I just get exhausted and discouraged. Sometimes I have to force myself to get through my 1 daily lesson. I used to do the stories on days like that, but now that’s not an option since the new update. Go easy on yourself, in Duo's own ...

If some get it and others don't then most likely an A/B test and if not that then something they are rolling out to everyone in batches Quite what behaviour or effect they might be testing is known only to Duolingo. Equally other things they've trialled sometimes they've gone back to how things were...

I got offered the new path a couple of weeks back but refused it since my Gaelic golden owl was within my grasp. But [mention]Helge.[/mention]'s post made me go look at my Android phone where there is indeed an option to turn it on and off My initial thoughts Puerile – I don’t need all graphic of th...

Was that on the web? Looks like they've switched to the one that I've seen at sometimes on Android

That sort of behaviour used to be possible for Plus users with the ability to cache stuff and do lessons offline - you'd then seen a very rapid gain in XP when those offline lessons synced with the server I know that facility was removed for new Plus users at some point because it was buggy but that...

it seems that "columbian cafe" should be permitted here. No, not at all. First of all, because " columbian " means "pertaining to Christopher Columbus." Second, because you are using "cafe" in singular. If one would like to say that one loves Colombian coffee...

Mine is the older account, and we do both use the Android version. I will try updating the app, though I've enabled auto updates so I would hope it's relatively up to date! So what version of the app do you have? Easiest way to check is to go into Settings and then Apps and find Duolingo Mine's cur...

so what happens if you click on the castle labelled 7 I think? Does it let you do the checkpoint "quiz"? That's usually the key to unlocking the next section unless duo thinks you haven't done some of the preceding skills to at least level 1 and your duome profile doesn't suggest this is t...

This post is about the bug that occurs with the Capstone Review; it occurs if you use both the app version of Duo & the web version of Duo. If I've read this right: on the iOS app (my Android app doesn't have this extra lesson) you complete 5 out of 6 lessons for a skill go to the web where it ...

A tip for leagues. Get in later in the day, they usually give you people that aren't so competitive. Or even later in the week possibly with the help of streak freezes or making your profile private until you want to join the league but don't leave it too late I think too close to the end of the we...

There are also differences between the apps for Android and iOS, though they are more similar to each other than the web version. iOS was the original app with the Android one coming later. The iOS one often used for testing new ideas, some of these make it to the other platforms and some of them do...

Not enough money Oh hell no! A quick search would say otherwise. Here's their own report . it's certainly not because of the money. if I have to hazard a guess, it'd be one of the following: they are making it more children-friendly(but this is a bad way to go about that goal. they could've simply ...

> The only thing I can think of is creating classrooms under duome account and having them listed on duome. Those who join would have their extended statistics, others would get the regular raw data. My opinion is that's its not worth exploring that option, as joining a classroom means surrending s...

Last one I got was about 18 hours ago - from Spanish from English. In the past it does seem to be patchy and I suspect depends on person nominally in charge of that skill

Ofnadwy! Sentence structures have changed, modules I haven't finished are showing as legendary, some modules I have finished are showing as not started, and others I have finished are so different that 50% of practice is unknown, and worst of all there are apparently 121 words that I've learnt that...

For short-sightedness in English, I'd more often use the word "myopic". Though if I'm talking about why I wear glasses then I'd be more likely to say I'm short-sighted since it's going to be better understood by more people. I'd more often use myopic when talking about someone who isn't lo...

I know if you look, I am not even close right now but how hard is it to stay in the diamond league I want a head's up once I get there Depends on the week and how smart you play the game.

Some observations: The most popular courses (Spanish, French) do not have a very committed percentage of learners, neither do the non-European language courses. The less popular courses (Swedish, Dutch) do better. German holds a middle ground. It's a Germanic language as English is supposed to be, ...

If you want to use the app without hearts and ads, then with a little work you can create a classroom as an alternative to buying PLUS

Locked for comments but is it just me but up/down voting them still seems to be possible?
