[ARCHIVED] Directory of Informal Duolingo Courses (and some great links)

Lately, I've noticed that some languages are hugely popular, but do not have Duolingo courses or lessons yet.

These languages often do have informal courses, however, so I've made a list for this. The list might be expanded every then and now. These informal courses are listed below alphabetically (letters for where there are no languages, are not included. So if there is no language starting with A, I do not put the A here). If a language gets a course when it's already in this list, I'll keep the language in this list nonetheless - but with a sidenote.

Languages that have a directory of their own, will get a link only. Those that don't, will get a complete list of lessons if nothing else is possible to make the list less chaotic.

If you are the maker of such a course, you could do me a great pleasure and favour by making a directory ;-)

Users are given their credit. When more than one person has co-worked with the course, I only add the one that posted the discussion - for the sake of keeping the list short, unless they have done so much more than the poster whilst not being credited; then they may be honoured too.

When two different users have made informal courses for the same language, and they both are useful, I treat it the same way as having no directory.
If you have sent me a link (which can be done through my activity stream or this discussion), I will add it on the list, and let you know it has been added.

Don't forget to sticky this discussion, so that you can see it in the list, or to look at new updates or other languages for useful learning.


##List:

1. Articles
2. Nouns
3. Adverbs and Adjectives
4. Conjunctions
5. Personal pronouns

Useful Duolingo non-course threads to look in

Other, extern links:
Impressively large list of language resources
Old languages sources - including Old English, Latin, and more
German CEFR competence test from Deutsche Welle - very good, if you want to know how good you are in German, and it also gives sources for further learning after you've done the test. I myself scored a 60% regarding the A1 level-specific test, and thus I 'passed' for it, apparently.
List of websites like Duolingo.
A few other great ones are Bliu Bliu and Anki; the first one focuses on individual words, reading; texts, video and music, the latter one on flashcards.
Converter from IPA to real speech (doesn't work 100% perfectly, but it is a good approximation. Works best for English)
Grammar Monster - explains grammar and foreign concepts like cases, gender, and more. Very helpful, they have a glossary as well, and it is easy to read.
