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…

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.

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.

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

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

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