Zari seems to have an elevated presence these days.

Now Lily is back. Not sure how I feel about that.

The Latin course is not so big and there is no tts therefore reliant upon recorded sound, but nonetheless there are a lot of other resources out there for (self)study so…

two weeks pass...

Anyway still amazes me how okay to good some of the courses are for small of the smaller languages except for Hungarian which is the worst course ever.

Should have been

Solaris Ocean Blue (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 17 February 2022 13:20 (four years ago)

So even though Duolingo runs its leagues on a weekly basis I’ve adopted a multi-week strategy that’s been working really well for me. I can explain if anyone wants to know more.

Clozemaster just did an upgrade again

welsh course just got reasonably big update though, which was what I was going to check.

Mardi Gras Mambo Sun (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 18 March 2022 03:22 (four years ago)

Norwegian supposed go get an update too.

And Golden Owl trophy is now some kind of pale blue geode.

Mardi Gras Mambo Sun (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 18 March 2022 03:26 (four years ago)

Lots of forum stuff being moved here: https://duolinguists.wordpress.com/

Mardi Gras Mambo Sun (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 18 March 2022 20:07 (four years ago)

tbh seems to be a nicer interface than the current implementation.

Mardi Gras Mambo Sun (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 18 March 2022 20:08 (four years ago)

Other stuff was already here: https://duolingo.fandom.com/wiki/Duolingo_Wiki

And here are some Welsh course books: https://learnwelsh.cymru/learning/curriculum-and-course-books/

Ah so the forum proper is now gone. Sentence discussions remain, but they are locked.

Quick maintenance break!
Duolingo will be back up soon. We’ve protected your streak today just in case!

An old Duo bug has resurfaced where it doesn’t always show points properly without some kind of forced refresh.

Came Here to Roll the Microscope (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 April 2022 01:21 (four years ago)

if duolingo had a messaging function, i would give ol bezos a piece of my mind.

but instead i will have to settle for crushing bezos in the pearl league, which i believe to be the top duolingo league

Karl Malone, Monday, 4 April 2022 01:32 (four years ago)

Um, uh, Karl, … there’s something you should know.

Came Here to Roll the Microscope (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 April 2022 01:52 (four years ago)

i've never listened to that song, but my first reaction is that it's amazing in how it starts kind of interesting and just gets worse and worse as it goes

Karl Malone, Monday, 4 April 2022 02:12 (four years ago)

two weeks pass...

Glossika iOS app just dropped.

Wile E. Kinbote (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 22 April 2022 15:46 (four years ago)

they have nynorsk but duolingo is bokmål. i am on day 260.

towards fungal computer (harbl), Friday, 22 April 2022 18:53 (four years ago)

Forgot about the Norwegian. The weird thing is that neither one is actually the spoken language, I don't think.

Granny Takes a Tripos (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 22 April 2022 19:26 (four years ago)

Think it is probably definitely better than Duo for several languages, but it has to be used correctly.

Granny Takes a Tripos (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 22 April 2022 19:27 (four years ago)

Have you looked at Siri Hustvedt's dad's grammar book yet?

Granny Takes a Tripos (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 22 April 2022 21:20 (four years ago)

Her mom seems interesting too.

Some kind of crazy new color scheme and resizing of panels in Drops that is hurting my eyes.

Wile E. Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 15:41 (four years ago)

Still, kind of find trying to learn languages that are not on Duolingo.
