Learn up to 90 languages with Duolingo for free here

In a world where countries are getting closer and closer to each other through the internet and peaceful circumstances, we are starting to meet many new people from other countries. Typically, we can all communicate with each other through English, which for many years has now been a real world language.

But despite that, learning a new language can be fun and a good challenge, especially if you have an interest in a specific country or know someone from there who would like to speak more in their own language. With Duolingo you can start learning almost any language you could imagine through their language courses.

Small exercises every day make the difference

Duolingo is not an app designed for you to sit and mute heavy stuff every day for hours to learn a language. The philosophy of Duolingo is more that small steps each time become something big in the long run. Therefore, they suggest you spend 15 min. per day on the app or their website. And what do you do in those 15 minutes?

Each language has a course where there are a variety of exercises that touch on every aspect of the given language you are learning. Typically, you start by learning a few words and useful everyday sentences quite easily and simply. But the further you get, the more complicated it becomes when you delve into the small details of the language.

Each exercise has a section with some theory that is really good to read before getting started. That way you get the general in place when you start the exercise. It is also important to get the theory right from the start, otherwise the later exercises will not make sense and you will quickly become frustrated.

Many smart methods to keep you motivated

Sticking to having to do something consistent every day can be difficult, even if it only takes 15 minutes. Maybe you come from work and are just too tired to get started. Maybe you lie with a hangover and sleep the day away. Many things can get in the way of doing their daily tasks.

That's why Duolingo does a lot of things to keep you engaged despite how hard you think it is. For example, you will receive notifications that tell you what to learn today or practice. There are leagues you can move up and down, the more time you put into the app. And then there is what is called a "streak". Your streak is the number of days you have practiced in a row and you get a little proud the higher it gets and the higher it is the less you will lose it. If you miss a day, the streak drops to 0.

You can also unlock achievements in Duolingo. Symbols of the things you have achieved using the app. For example, you get achievements when you have spent many days in a row, when you have completed many exercises, when you rise in level or enter a new league. There is always something you can hunt and aspire to in Duolingo.

You can also earn the app's virtual currency: Lingots. For example, you can bet on how many days you can run a streak. If you reach that streak, you get more Lingots. If you don't, you lose them. Lingots can be used for example to buy special exercises, such as how to be romantic in a specific language etc.

Compete against your friends

In Duolingo, you can add friends and family who also use the app or have an account. When you have added each other, you can see which languages in the teacher, how much they have trained the given day and how high a streak they have.

When you can see all these details, you automatically want to automatically compete for the top spot. Duolingo does many small things to keep you engaged.

For those of you who want to get in shape quickly in a given language

Do you stand and have to travel in a little while? Would you like to learn a little from the language and how to do it best? It is very normal to want to learn a little of the language from the country you are traveling on holiday to. It can make communication much easier, specialt if it is a country not known for speaking much English.

With Duolingo you can quickly before leaving some useful words and phrases in place that allow you to communicate with people in restaurants when you order food, in the city when you have to show your way etc. Duolingo is the app for you who like will achieve this.

Beautiful and clear design

Duolingo is set up in a really beautiful way. Having to learn a new language may seem overwhelming at times, but here Duolingo's design helps you to say, "take it easy". When you start with exercises, you typically need to complete the exercise completely before you can move on. It is therefore not possible to just jump around and hype what you want from the beginning in an unfocused way.

At the top you have different sections that you can shuffle around in. For example, you have “learn”. Here are your exercises you can do. Then there is "Discuss" where you can discuss grammatical elements in the different languages with others who either speak the language or learn it. In this way one can exchange one's knowledge with one another.

In color everything is very bright. The background is chalk-white covered with light blue and green colors that exude a lovely positivity. It is very nice that it seems welcoming and cozy when you visit the app or their website.

Conclusion

Duolingo has revolutionized the way it has become possible to learn languages. They have taken advantage of the fact that we all use our phones every day, and often on cases and meaningless things. Now we have no excuse not to follow our dream of learning a language. Duolingo with their fantastic language learners practice makes learning a new language easier than ever before. Therefore it is recommended.
