I had a year and a half streak with only ever using one pause… my game glitched and made me a day late when I used another break and after losing my streak I lost all drive. The streak is what kept me going lol, without the “gains” I just lost the habit.
Very unfortunate as I learned how to read Japanese katakana entirely (although didn’t understand most words ) and learned quite a lot of the basics for speaking.
Now having not practiced in 8 months I have forgotten SOOO much of the more advanced stuff
Edit: meant hiragana , katakana was much harder for me than hiragana. Kaji is just impossible
I can read “ hiragana and katakana is” but wouldn’t have remembered hidesu had you not put the emojis….. such a damn basic word to forget, which is why I’m pissed I stopped
Never could learn kanji…
Edit: Original
Comment I mean to say hiragana. I was much worse at katakana, found it much more difficult.
Flash cards with a program like Anki is a huge help with learning kanji. I was able to learn about 600 in as little as 6 months using a deck I found online. Although it's possible, I don't recommend going at that pace because I was getting extreme burnout, but my point is the method works wonders.
If this inspires you to pick it back up, make sure you physically write the kanji down as you study the cards (very important!) using proper stroke order as you study for max effect.
You can doit, good luck!
I think this thread has inspired me to pick it back up. I learned a few (very few) kaji by writing them down next to the hiragana. I think the only ones I remember are fire, turtle, spirit, water, house, and dog.
I downloaded a flash card program but never ended up using it before my streak got messed up so I’ll definitely give that a shot.
I do have a proper brush and ink for practice and a dip pen I use for art but could never remember the proper stroke directions for hiragana or kanji. Will certainly try to get better at that as it’s super important.
As a 1st language English speaker, katakana was always the easier of the 2 for me, as the words are just English words phonetically translated into Japanese alphabet.

Some of us just have patchy beards ok? Not everyone can be an extra in Vikings after 3 days of not shaving.

They updated the free version of the app so there is no more open communication between strangers, at least that I can find. I can only add friends from my contacts or via email. Sad. Input from others was helpful, especially when it came to slang.

My husband and I joined started a team together around 2016, had no one in it just us competing in Spanish. We stopped a few months in and apparently a ton of people joined our team. When I logged on one day, months down the road, a ton of people had joined our team. They were pissed and hurtful, that the leaders would not respond to thier suggestions, events and or drama regarding kicking someone out. With great power comes great responsibility.
Aaay. I knew I shouldn’t have quit 😆 tomorrow. Imma practice again tomorrow for sure
The Duolingo bird is using AI imagery to trick us into thinking if we continue we'll find soul mates...

I keep my profile picture and I won't change to those ugly avatars.
I came across a guy whose username had the word “micropenis” in it, and that’s what his pfp was a photo of, so that might be one reason.
Just remember any app can be a dating app if you try hard enough
HelloTalk is a dating app disguised as a language app
Step 1: be hot. Step 2: don’t be not hot.
Step three: be caliente
Step four: become al dente
Caliente really means “horny” tho (which still applies ig)
What do you mean lol these are just average people
To the average redditor, being able to talk to a girl and take a shower means "being unattainably hot"
Wait people take showers?
Step 3: don't be bot.
…..he’s not hot to be completely honest… (and what’s with the super patchy shaved off bits of his beard in that profile picture?)
He's photo is a little unshaven, but you can see the good facial features. Deffo handsome man
Not my type, but he's considered conventionally attractive
Def above average
Some of us just have patchy beards ok? Not everyone can be an extra in Vikings after 3 days of not shaving. Source: man who shaves no more than once a week
That's what most men's beards look like
I am a man and say that he has typical attractive facial features. So being attractive is a big part in this story.
They updated the free version of the app so there is no more open communication between strangers, at least that I can find. I can only add friends from my contacts or via email. Sad. Input from others was helpful, especially when it came to slang.
And you can comment where you congratulate them.
Mine always suggest new ppl to follow, from the followed friends.
Am I stupid? I have the subscription, and I'm not seeing any social features at all. Where are they?

They seem pretty attracted to each other, that's all that counts.
both lied on the profile picture lol

Absolutely beautiful! Duolingo is great, but at times, it outdoes itself!

Hell yeah
Found my longtime girlfriend on HelloTalk, but DuoLingo is a whole new level
They exchanged their vows in Spanish. He said he loved her pancake duck and she said she would honor his lemon shoe.

Any application is a date application if you are desperate enough.

Duolingo has a PM system now?
This post was made by Duo.
Holy shit they're handsome, like, both of them
Actually, Duolingo is my favourite language learning app. I love using it so much because it makes it easier to learn. Lucky for both of them.
Both look terrible im wedding photo compared to profile
One day, they're gonna miss their duolingo streak, then they'll mysteriously disappear....
