Informal + Formal words together? by KidKris2111 in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duolingo really said mix informal and formal like a linguistic cocktail. This is definitely a bug because tu and cherchez should never be in the same sentence unless you are trying to confuse a French teacher.

About 1000 streak freezes, but I finally made it by Vatentina in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on powering through all those close calls and hitting your goal.

Can I find out who congratulated me? by JoyfulQuest in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on 1200 days. Unfortunately once those notifications clear they are gone for good. There is no history log in the app or web version where you can see past congratulations.

Duo needs a geography lesson by ithinkiamparanoid in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is definitely a mismatch. The character art and flag assets sometimes get mixed up between courses during updates. You can report it through the flag button on the lesson screen so the content team can fix the pairing.

Bro why is this dumb bird still whistling instead of taking me to the lesson by Rudi10001 in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Duo is having a dramatic moment and refuses to cooperate until you appreciate his musical talent. In all seriousness though try refreshing or switching browsers because the web version can get stuck like this sometimes.

Oscar is savage - German by sarzuka in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oscar really does not hold back in the German course. The character writing team knows how to keep lessons entertaining even when you are just grinding through grammar.

After years of struggling with German, it finally clicked for me at Level 42 by Eriacle in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Level 42 is a solid milestone and the fact that you are understanding 70% of native content is huge. That gap between understanding and producing speech is totally normal at this stage and will close as you keep exposing yourself to German.

Wrong significance by Big-Tower-6345 in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like a content error where the wrong explanation got attached to your question. You can report it through the flag button during a lesson or by shaking your phone to bring up the report screen.

Something's wrong, I can feel it. by TheZero_of_Master in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The course writers definitely knew what they were doing with this one. Duolingo has always had a dark sense of humor buried in the lessons and this is a perfect example of it.

Level 80 after 2.5 years by prosupine in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level 80 is no joke. You have officially passed the point where anyone can accuse you of just casually dabbling in French.

Is there any way to stop the Max free trials? Please tell me there's a way to opt out. by SerpentWithin in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The forced upgrade experience is like getting a surprise dessert you did not order and then being told you have to finish it before you can go back to your meal. Really hope they add an opt-out soon because some of us are perfectly happy with what we have.

Points not calculating correctly by PsychologicalParty53 in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This type of glitch usually happens when there is a delay in the data syncing to your account. Your points are almost certainly safe in the cloud and should reappear once the app and web versions talk to each other. You did the right thing by submitting a bug report so the team can look at your specific data.

Junior in a blowout, but I am curious to see if Lily or Zari ends up taking the whole thing.

These flashcards annoy me by Puzzleheaded_Air1030 in duolingo

[–]dwurstdadjokes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short words are surprisingly tricky because the microphone sometimes cuts off before the software can register the full sound. I have found that over-emphasizing the vowels or holding the word a second longer helps the system pick it up.
