1. 5/5Experience so far

   So most importantly if you have a child who doesn't want to study or has disabilities, obviously it's not guaranteed to work but my kid does it and i haven't had to ask a single time, she does it probably at least and hour a day, playing chess, learning Spanish and math, all things i thought were fantasy, anyways you get the point. As for me, that's why the title is because I am wondering how far it can get you off pure studying nonstop, eventually it's better to have someone fluent to speak to in order to improve but learning words, sentences and writing, yes, keep in mind i'm putting in hours of work, but Russian I needed to improve, that's going very well. I also wanted to see how it would do with languages I had little to no experience in. So rather than explain tiny details, I think the fact that I can read and write some Japanese and haven't even gotten far but I mean, Japanese is completely different when it comes to writing, and I had no experience, but I wanted to see if I could read It if I wrote some stuff down can I read it in a while. It didn't look like nonsense to me, I could read and understand some of it. I recommend doing lessons longer getting a pen and paper and write down every single sentence to practice writing and grammar. Again, no clue if this'll be for everyone and you have to put in the work, don't expect improvement not taking it seriously. Anyways, i'm gonna wrap this up, I hope this helps if you're on the fence on the plan. Chao

2. 5/5Very improved app! I’m extremely pleased!

   Duolingo, this time has certainly outdone itself. Not only has Duolingo remained a free language learning app for all, but this time Duolingo has taken all of us back to basics to learn a language fluently! In my opinion, just like how we learned our first language through being thrown right into the mix Duolingo has done just that without the rules and guidelines I honestly can say I feel more comfortable now learning the language that I have before and this time I have started my whole entire profile over just to check and test myself as far as my memory reading and comprehension and speaking of Spanish! Throwing us right into the mix has been the best decision ever made to learn a language because now it’s up to the User either sync or swim it’s up to us to adapt and I think learning languages is one of the best things that we can do not only to be well-rounded, but also enable us to have more friends and be able to go on other places with ease. However, one suggestion that I would have is that maybe Duolingo with setting it up so that you could FaceTime on the app with people who speak the same language that you’re studying to give them more authentic feel and to become comfortable with speaking language or allow users of a given language to FaceTime a native speaker to test, reading comprehension and understanding and fluency of a language all in all they’ve done a great job and I am proud to be a part of the Duolingo family in 2026 ~Cedric

3. 5/5Great app!

   I wanted to download Duolingo because I am going to fly to Paris France soon, and of course I needed to learn some French to go there. so when I first downloaded it, I thought I would go straight away to French, but no they want to take interest of why you are learning the language. which is a feature that I really like, including the fact, you have a choice to take a quiz when you first download it and start learning your language. like for example they will ask you if you would like to start from the beginning or if you want to take quiz to see how much you know and get as far as you can. obviously, I just wanted to learn French because I was going to fly there and so I pressed start from the beginning. they also make the learning fun! They find cool ways to teach you things. Like for example I was having so much fun on Duolingo. I spent 15 minutes on there when I chose only five minutes a day. including the fact, I didn’t know that I knew all these French words for example I was just doing a lesson on Duolingo and these questions got popping up and I kept easily answering them not even knowing that I knew those words. that’s how Duolingo shows you that you made progress. I also like how there are different characters with different voices so you can understand other peoples voices and way of speaking and not just one person’s voice on Duolingo. now I am super pumped to go to Paris!! 😀😃😄😁😆🥹😅😂🤣🥲☺️😊😇🙂🙃😉😌😍🥰😘😗😙😚😋😛😝😜🤪🤓😎🤩🥳🙂‍↕️😏🙂‍↔️🤭🤗🥴

4. 5/5I don’t like it

   Given that I am I a fluent English speaker and only speak one language, I wanted to use an app that was free and helpful for learning to speak and understand another language. Duolingo is a popular choice among language learners so I decided to give it a try. I used the app for about a month before deleting it. Learning to speak the language with this app is not only hard, but also ineffective in helping me understand the language. For example, I was learning hangeul and I was supposed to listen to a voice saying the word and click on the answer that correlates with that word. Except when I clicked on the answer that sounded like that word, I was wrong. How was I supposed to know which answer was right when they all sounded the same? Not to mention, the robot voice is really unhelpful when trying to pronounce the words. I can barely hear the distinct sound of the word. Another thing, when I was first learning, I was bombarded by words I never even learned and duolingo wanted me to identify what the words were. I’ve never even seen the word in my life and it expected me to know what it sounded like and looked like? Ridiculous. Also, I never received lessons on how to identify the difference between two words that look almost alike. They just left it up to me to figure it out myself. All in all, I won’t ever be choosing to use this app to learn a language. I even tried Spanish! Still didn’t learn anything useful or complete my goal of learning and speaking a language.

5. 5/5Really easy and nice features

   This is a great app. I am trying out Max in German, and it would really help if the app gave suggestions on how to respond if you need it. Sometimes I forget how to start or end the sentence, forget a noun I want to use and could use a reminder, and sometimes it throws a verb at you that you didn’t learn yet. Example: Lily asked me where I was (I think, not even sure) and I ended up using the beginning part of her sentence and a word for dogs at the end of my sentence because it was the only word I could think of at the moment. Lily thankfully didn’t chastise me for my misunderstanding, but switched to asking me if I like dogs. I didn’t learn the verb for like yet, so I was completely lost on what she was saying. I didn’t know until I read the explanation at the end of the call (which was very helpful, btw). On the next call, she remembered that conversation and expanded on it so I was able to practice the using the verb “like” in my responses now that I knew what she was saying. At any rate, the video call could be improved by making some explanation/hint available if you need it. I don’t want it up front because that doesn’t help with ability to recall the info on your own. I also love that the widget feature gently reminds you every day with a little owl humor to practice and that has been EXTREMELY helpful for me when I have so many other notifications on my phone. Overall, this is a wonderful learning tool for a new language.

5. 1/5

   Third class test with third grade pre-requisites. Don't waste you time & money over this cheap platform & scam. Better appear in either PTS or IELTS.
