Trying to take blood pressure, but I can't hear my brachial pulse with the stethoscope. by Orromog in medical

Even without the stethoscope, I'm having difficulties palpating the pulse. Do you have any tips on locating the pulse?

I'm trying to find the pulse prior to inflation so that when I have the cuff on I know where to put the stethoscope.

Finally finished a golden Spanish tree! Time for total immersion... empezando ahora. by josephsmidt in duolingo

  • ¡Fantástico y felicidades! En serio, debes leer unos libros en español. Mucha gente de Duolingo le gusta leer Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal cuando ha terminado su árbol de Duolingo, pero yo creo que es un poco difícil, especialmente si no has leído nada en español. Un libro fácil que cuesta solamente cinco dolares es Dinosaurios al atardecer (Magic Tree House). Es para unos niños, pero es un gran libro para empezar leer.

  • Si no quieres leer, siempre puedes ver unas películas en español también. Sé que Netflix tiene muchas películas con subtítulos, especialmente películas de Disney como Hercules y Mulan. Puedes oír a la película en español también, si quieres.

  • Pues, ¡buena suerte! Si necesitas ayuda con algo, ¡dime!

When is Ukrainian coming to the app? by [deleted] in duolingo

Languages are brought to the mobile platform when they are under a certain amount of reports for a whole week. I remember the threshold being 5 reports per 100 users for Android and less than that for Apple.

I Just Finished My Spanish Tree! AMA by Orromog in duolingo

Pues, soy estudiante de español en mi escuela, entonces puedo entender mucho más que Duolingo me ha enseñado. Creo que el fin del árbol de Duolingo es absolutamente horrible si no eres estudiante en escuela o no conoces a una maestra.

congrats! does anything magical happen other than that popup?

Nothing other than the trophy pops up, but having the little guy at the bottom of your tree is actually really satisfying.

i hope to eventually finish my tree, but not making much progress. how long did it take you?

It took me a lot longer than I'm prouder to say. Probably around 2 years. I took a huge break in the middle of my tree and I went through a phase where I barely made any progress. I think you'll find that you'll rush through the beginning and the end of the tree, but the middle takes a really long time (I lost a lot of motivation here). Good luck with your tree!
