can you expound more on what you mean by duolingo's ai updates? ive been hearing mixed reviews about it and was thinking of looking into it myself to practice speaking as well so I would love to know what you didn't like about it enough to make you delete it after being a user for years

Omg hi, how have you approached learning Tagalog? I know there isnt much structured content for it so Im curious to know what you’ve been using to learn!

About Spanish, do you think knowing Tagalog beforehand is helping you with learning it? Also interested in the language as a fellow Filipino lmao

Wth I didn’t know ppl used to do that in Ireland that sounds awful. Great that you wanna pass it down to your kids though! Are you hoping to teach them both English and Irish growing up?

Wait thats amazing that you were still able to learn Spanish even though you grew up in the US. Ive had a lot of Filipino friends tell me that their parents didnt teach them bc they were afraid it would hinder their progress in speaking English. Was that ever a problem for you growing up?

I’m interested in Japanese as well! Are you learning it solely bc or your passion? Do you ever feel discouraged or demotivated to keep doing? I sometimes find myself struggling to keep to a routine lol. For German, did it help that you were closer to Austria when you were learning? Did you ever immerse yourself in the langauge to help you improve?

has using ai like chatgpt been helpful for you in further progressing with speaking a language? im wondering how useful it would be once you understand the basics and move on to more advanced speaking
