[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know, DD has been trying to learn Russian on Duolingo and it’s pretty cr@ppy (I’m a native speaker). She’s very good with languages in general so I think it’s the app. [/quote] Well, i do know that not all languages have the same level of sophistication. I remember hearing an NPR piece about how after the war w/Ukraine started, they had to dramatically upgrade their lessons because of the interest. They said some of the languages were basically developed to the standards of a client, I think, in the case of Ukrainian, it was for the US State Department which had some basic requirements and weren't looking for lots of creative stories and jokey engagement tricks. French, Spanish and Italian definitely have the most resources. But the "gamify" concept is effective in general, I found. [/quote]
