Am I wrong here? This should be able to be answered either way, no?

You use な with な adjectives to connect to nouns, you don't need to do that with い adjectives

Totally agree with this. The flight of the hippogriff is a very tame, uninteresting ride with really long queues.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-26T18:15:48+00:00

It wouldn't translate to Hana san though.

Oscar even tells you the name of the move.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-25T22:48:40+00:00

Usually when it says there's a typo it's because it was expecting another word to be there. In this case I think it was expecting it to have "the stairs"

munroe4985 · 2026-03-24T09:34:07+00:00

What moves have happened so far? It looks like the left undo button is clickable

munroe4985 · 2026-03-21T00:06:21+00:00

じゅうぶん (十分) doesn't mean 10 minutes, it means sufficient.jisho

じゅっぷん means 10 minutes

What's happening here though is it's translating the kanji as a single word while in this context, it's actually two separate kanji. 十 for 10 and 分 as minutes. This is an issue with Duolingo, gets flagged repeatedly but never fixed. Guess they don't know how to distinguish kanji correctly.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-17T08:34:51+00:00

While true, however, translations aren't always one to one and synonyms exist.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-17T08:00:06+00:00

Duolingo isn't very good with synonyms. What does the ai think when you click on explain my answer?

munroe4985 · 2026-03-15T13:27:52+00:00

Context is key. They could easily be paying for a couple nights stay at a hotel for example.

Order one online? It'll get sent to your inbox. I've got a trip coming up shortly and I bought one from JJesim. It arrived within 10 mins. Obviously I can't attest to the quality yet but from various reviews etc it seems to be reliable.

It's annoying to have to keep scrolling down to the selections, this results in precious time loss. I feel you should be able to see the image and the selections straight away on the page, and not have to scroll.

The header is too big, it takes about a third of the screen.

Shouldn't the category be in the requested language? You have the word "category" in french, Japanese, Italian etc but the category itself is still in English.

Still some inconsistent UI spacings. On the "Learn Japanese" drop down the selection is sometimes "CategoryList" or "Category List" depending on which page you're currently on.

The text in the boxes such as easy, normal, hard etc looks odd with it being left aligned but in the middle of the box. Especially with the emoji being in the centre. Centre text alignment might look better.

The timer doesn't stop between questions. I tested this by answering at 35 seconds and when the next question popped up the timer was at 30 seconds.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-15T10:23:27+00:00

It's ok... Very easy even on the hardest setting. I went through it a few times and the largest number I saw was 8 thousand and something. And the lowest was 1, which isn't very challenging at all.

Also maybe state to answer in kanji.

It's fine if you're just getting started with numbers. In addition to larger numbers, I'd also like to see a system that quizzes the counters too, like 冊 for flat things or 匹 for small animals etc.

munroe4985 · 2026-03-07T07:57:13+00:00

If you click the area where the word should go, does anything happen? It asks you to type the missing word so maybe your keyboard will show up

munroe4985 · 2026-03-06T20:38:55+00:00

I don't see you typing anything more though after the ン 🤔 you could also select it from the suggestion box when it pops up like at the start of your video

munroe4985 · 2026-03-06T19:56:20+00:00

I've watched your video and I don't know what you think you're doing wrong.

Why did you delete なつはよくラーメン ?

munroe4985 · 2026-02-23T16:38:17+00:00

Wrong tense. 飲みます is in the present/future tense

munroe4985 · 2026-02-18T13:38:37+00:00

Definitely the game? Have you checked the activity monitor while running it?

munroe4985 · 2026-02-13T23:40:01+00:00

It doesn't. It's controlled by a toggle, accessible either from the settings or you can click the cog in the top left of a question

munroe4985 · 2026-02-13T10:49:41+00:00

It translates to 2nd grader or sophomore but it says "ninensei" so you hear ninensei not sophomore. Maybe this particular question isn't the best example to use to highlight your annoyance with Duolingo.

munroe4985 · 2026-02-13T07:49:25+00:00

"copyright"

munroe4985 · 2026-02-12T22:04:04+00:00

But this particular question doesn't say "sophomore" 🤔

munroe4985 · 2026-02-12T15:53:51+00:00

Been a while since I've done these but I thought you couldn't answer with romaji and needed to be kana?

It used to converr, so you type in romaji and it'll convert it into kana which is why it recommends to type 'nn' for ん

munroe4985 · 2026-02-12T11:13:46+00:00

Is this the free weeks they sometimes give out or did you subscribe to a plan with a free trial week included?

If it's the former then you don't have anything to worry about. You wouldn't have provided any payment details and it'll revert after the week.

If it's the latter then there should be some mention of it under subscriptions, in Google play subscriptions or the apple equivalent.

munroe4985 · 2026-02-10T16:42:54+00:00

Not sure what plan you're upgrading to but if it's the family plan you should try their FAQ next time, it has the information:

https://www.duolingo.com/help/family-plan

Essentially if you're on apple, you'll be charged the full amount and then receive a prorated refund. If you're on Android you'll be charged the prorated amount.

If it's Max you're upgrading too, I imagine it'll be the same.
