itt: stories of yr attempts to master tongues via DUOLINGO

trying out Clozemaster now

Dit heeft met jou niets te maken.

Ik geef nooit op.

Tegen wie denk je dat je het hebt?

anyway, back to Duolingo. Seems that once one gets to Set 6 of the Stories, the questions are in the foreign language and the stories themselves are significantly more intricate.

Drops is my new jam.

Dit heeft met jou niets te maken.

Dit heeft niets met jou te maken sounds more natural btw.

Also wtf is the difference betw tous les jours and chaque jour? Just seems weird we can’t use the latter.

in what context? they seem pretty similar

□ chaque jour. La tâche de chaque jour. ➙ journalier, quotidien. Périodique paraissant chaque jour. ➙ journal. PROV. À chaque jour suffit sa peine. □ tous les jours : chaque jour, quotidiennement. Ce sont des choses qui arrivent tous les jours, couramment. (1579) De tous les jours : courant, habituel, ordinaire. La vie de tous les jours, quotidienne. PROV. On n’a pas tous les jours vingt ans

because of the league tables decide to do a longish lay-off of Duo between Sunday and Monday night.

Thanks!

Weet ik veel!

I’m still in section one. :-( This is taking 4evah

Kijk voor je, alsjeblieft.

Geen huisdieren!

Hold on, what’s this?

Kijk uit voor de hond!

i’m gonna learn finnish

Yes, it’s on there.

along with Icelandic.

counter for Drops 90 Day Challenge is currently not working

Kijk goed. Ik zal je laten zien hoe je dit doet.

Doe het rustig!

Getting Drops and Clozemaster into the mix really seems to help.

I'm sticking with this Gàidhlig course longer than i have with other languages i've tried on here.

I've started german (primarily using pimsleur but supplemented with youtube and duolingo). live with a fluent german speaker so trying to blitz a base in 6 months and then maybe try to switch to speaking german at home... see how we go

really found 'le journal en français facile' podcast useful for french listening practice - anyone know of a good equivalent in german? think you have to pay for 'news in slow german'

Deutsche Welle has slowly spoken news podcast every day

it used to be free but maybe not anymore if that’s what you are saying

still seems free, just downloaded today’s episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/langsam-gesprochene-nachrichten-deutsch-lernen-deutsche/id282930329

just finally learned what the combo bonus is

Finally got the Norwegian 4.0 tree

Course is so much bigger

i just got the new french tree yesterday (id been focusing on stories)

Stories really good when you already know something, although the first few levels are pretty easy.

I now see new French course too. Now have huge purple swath before 6th castle.

lol i took like two years off, returned last week, ditched my french, norwegian and vietnamese course entirely, and went back to the start with welsh, viz greetings, also beverages: i have no idea what any of you are talking abt purple castles etc

Croeso'n ôl, Marc!

Diolch!

Btw have you looked into Say Something in Welch?

So I made it to the Diamond League, another empty accomplishment.

Welsh course kicked up this interesting sentence this morning.

Too much time on Duolingo(and Drops, really): Saw a sign on a truck that said BIG REUSE and I thought for a second it had something to do with a Dutch giant.
