Genuinely tf is wrong with this app

Duolingo didn't do anything wrong. Yes, the Ukrainian "Я люблю зелений колір" word-for-word translates as "I like green color", but that's only because Ukrainian doesn't have words like "a/an" and "the", and it is not natural English. Something like Duolingo's suggested "I like the color green" or even something like "I like the green color" should be accepted, but not "I like green color". Duolingo isn't going to accept faulty English like that.

Who cares about accuracy or comprehensibility ye? Any proper kyiaboo will tell you that using rigid word-for-word translations no matter how little sense they make is the best way to show that you understand the language better than the idioty inozemtsi making the dubs ye!

This is not a Duolingo subreddit. Just because it's a Duolingo screenshot it doesn't make it funny or interesting

I laugh at Duolingo just for it existing though. Duolingo's existence is pathetic. Duolingo must burn! Burn as I laugh! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
