A great free way to learn languages.
All the fucking time. It is one of the reasons I stopped using this shit.
Having a native speaking gf in the language I'm learning, the amount of times she told me they were teaching me stuff that was just flat out wrong were way too numerous. I find languages very hard as it is without learning something incorrect that I then need to try and forget!
Ok, thanks for the Feedback. Was afraid I got me some dementia. I always suspected that some things were wrong, sometimes the english part of the transcription is wrong so I guessed that the other part (Russian for me) also has to have some Errors.
Do you have a good alternative, by any chance?
I now use Busuu which is much better in my opinion. It actually gives you proper explanations on the reasonings behind things they are teaching you rather than just throwing shit at you with no explanation like Duolingo does. I feel I learnt more in the first month of using it than I did in a year and a half of Duolingo.
I do need something else to supplement my learning to go with it however but that is more due to my inability to fully grasp different concepts and such. My brain is just more geared to maths and science so I find languages in general inherently more difficult.
The only thing with busuu is it has a smaller pool of languages so I'm not sure if Russian is one of their taught languages.
Oh okay, I would be happy with some supplementary grammar lessons I guess. I am also annoyed that duo does not give ich habe explicit hints here and I have to research everything by myself.
I guess I will have a look into Busuu, thanks :)
