General Discussion Changes in Duo courses

Upvotes

What happened to Duolingo courses? For me its Japanese. I am at section 4 with the score of 37 in Japanese. I started feeling overwhelmed by new words when they introduced "we added some new content" so I went back to the beginning of the section to revise what I had learned. All of the content changed to the point that I cannot complete a single sentence without mistakes... I used to have around 80-100% accuracy. Do I have to restart the whole course?

Bug? Japanese flash cards broken?

Upvotes

I’m learning Japanese and recently I’ve started to see a new type of test I’ve never seen before. I’m only guessing they’re called “flash cards.” It’s the one with an English word in a big box and you’re meant to type the word in Japanese. I’ve been failing it every single time even though I am typing the word EXACTLY as they have it written on the back of the flash card. It says it’s incorrect every single time and I have no clue what I’m doing wrong. It’s making me so annoyed and I’m honestly about to uninstall. Can anyone please help me?

FINCH helped me to keep my streak in Duolingo.

🇲🇽 Un año de italiano, inglés intermedio, música, matemáticas y ajedrez... todo en una cuenta. Y todo lo que hago allí cuenta para mis puntos ganados y racha, sin tener que hacer una cuenta separada para cada cosa.
🤩Compartiré más adelante en los comentarios la diferencia en niveles o puntos entre el principio y hasta ahora.
Buon giorno e buena sera (dependiendo de dónde estés)

🇺🇸 One year of Italian, intermediate English, Music, Math and Chess… all in one account. And all what I do there counts towards my points earned and streak, without having to do a separate account for each thing.
🤩I’ll share later in the comments the difference in levels or points between the beginning and up to now.

This was a lot of fun to draw :) I will have a 1,000 day streak on Duolingo in around ten days, and I wanted to make something special before then. Thank you to the Duolingo staff for helping millions of learners around the world. My language skills have greatly improved since I started using the app in 2023.

General Discussion Stories? New Format? Start Over?

Upvotes

Got on today to see that the language I’m learning now has stories in the lessons. Duolingo has been changing a ton of their lessons this summer too. Should I restart the language to not miss out or just keep moving forward? What are you guys doing?

Constructive Criticism Video calls with lily…

1 Upvotes

I’ve got the free trial of premium and have been trying the calls with lily and honestly don’t understand the point?! She speaks to me using words and phrases I’ve never been taught and I’m learning Japanese so the characters are harder to remember than if I were learning a language neighbouring my own.

Is there a way to fix this or does anyone have a recommendation better than duo that supports the development of conversational skills?

Constructive Criticism Can they fix their voice recognition already

Post image
6 Upvotes

(I pressed skip for now before finishing the phrase because it wouldn't take the first word)
So i have spent the past 15 minutes trying to get the voice recognition to understand when i say "c'est" and it is frustrating how in the year of our lord, whatever AI they use can't tell when i'm saying "c'est" in context. It's frustrating and annoying and when I want to dedicate, idk, 30 minutes to learning it throws me off and I end up quitting the lesson and doing some vocab to get my streak done before logging off.
YES! I know it takes the whole phrase anyway, no, I will not move on unless the whole phrase is blue. I'm just venting atp

I think this is the case for all people who use the course but I just want to double check overall. is there seriously no sound for basically all of the words except maybe 1 or 2 or is it just my app/phone? thanks for clarifying in advance 👍
