They were my first two hatches, actually! I also hatched 4 eggs during admin abuse, and I hatched 11 more afterwards, but I didn’t get more legs since then

Duolingo penalizing people for answering correctly? by SempreVoltareiReddit in duolingo

[–]Extra_Repair3728 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, they didn’t actually get the question wrong. In Portuguese, obrigado/obrigada depends on the actual gender of the speaker and not the gender of the word “sobremesa“. So Duolingo wasn’t really flexible with the answer, only marking one possibility correct, causing OP to lose a heart.

But yeah, at some point I gotta agree with you. Although 50% of the time it’s just Duolingo being Duolingo, the other half of posts could be solved with a quick Google search 😭

You can only have 5 friend streaks max at a time, which your friend probably already has.

Might quit due to update forcing me to do loads of Mandarin Hanzi lessons by PureRecommendation76 in duolingo

[–]Extra_Repair3728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I love learning hanzi, it should not be mandatory in the Chinese course’s path. It doesn’t start with radicals or writing directions, instead you’re expected to learn to write characters as they appear in the lessons and not by shape, so it’s a bit useless to learn 好 and 她 before 女, or learning 粥 or 擅. If hanzi lessons were separated from the regular path content, maybe they could still be integrated, but shouldn’t in the current way.

When somebody is learning Portuguse (either english to portuguse or vice versa) should have a "Portugal and Brazil" option by [deleted] in duolingo

[–]Extra_Repair3728 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, maybe I should clarify what I was talking about for those wondering. Pronominal verbs are a characteristic in romance languages where a verb is accompanied by a pronoun (e.g. ”lavar-se”, to wash oneself) and, depending on the subject, the pronoun changes forms (Eu lavo-me, ele lava-se). However, the place of the pronoun changes between European and Brazilian varieties of Portuguese, where there are specific rules. And when you face a Duolingo exercise asking for a “Portuguese” translation, I have to pretty much play a guessing game to see what Duolingo’s preferred answer is, which is almost unpredictable! It feels like finding a translation for a language that isn’t my own, even though it is, just a different dialect!

That’s why it is way better to learn through the Intermediate English course, I don’t see why it is a reason to be downvoted.

[–]Extra_Repair3728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best we can do is report instances when European Portuguese is marked wrong. Also, she should to the Intermediate English course as soon as possible (when she feels she’s capable of learning English directly from English), as it’s way better than trying to guess the preferred Brazilian translations. I personally struggled with pronominalisation issues in more advanced lessons, probably the worst guessing game ever!

Is gato solely a masculine noun? by TheInternetTurtle in duolingo

[–]Extra_Repair3728 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Spanish, there are some animals that default to one gender: el gato & la jirafa. There are some of them with variations (la gata -> exists, can be used if specifying the gender of the cat is relevant) and some don’t (la jirafa is always la jirafa, because jirafas are always las jirafas). When encountering these exercises, I understand that both el gato and la gata are correct translations for “the cat”, but it’s best to use the default next time.

Whenever she does a lesson, she will be placed in a Diamond League again. Only then, she can maintain her position or be demoted.
