John Johnson Okah<p>Dear Duolingo: How do I get better at pronunciation in my new language?</p><p>- Listen attentively to tricky sounds <br>- Give yourself permission to speak slower <br>- Prioritize effective communication <br>- Read Aloud <br>- Record Yourself <br>- Identify Lapses <br>- IMPROVE <br>- REPEAT <br>- 🔁</p><p>Ref:<br><a href="https://blog.duolingo.com/improve-pronunciation-in-new-language-tips/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">blog.duolingo.com/improve-pron</span><span class="invisible">unciation-in-new-language-tips/</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>duolingo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/languagelearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>languagelearning</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pronunciationtips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pronunciationtips</span></a></p>

I'm not fully jazzed with my results of either - but - I'm also tired and think I can put them into practice on my own. While the stripes are the simpler of the two, I was delighted when I realised that I could limit the second layer of highlights to specific areas of the stripe to create a stronger "faux gloss" effect. Maybe I'll get working on those Spyre Hunters (rich big game hunters) with these two techniques 🤔</p>

Dani Iduna 🖌️<p>Damals in der Schulzeit sollte man sich für die 7te Klasse ein Wahlfach aussuchen. Da Technik und Hauswirtschaft nicht mein Ding waren, wählte ich Dänisch an erster Stelle. Dänemark ist gleich nebenan.<br>Was bekam ich?<br>Französisch.<br>Die Sprache, die meine armen Synapsen komplett verknotete ... <br>Jahrelange Quälerei! <br>Aber es gibt ja <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>duolingo</span></a>, und da wählte ich dänisch. Anfangs tat ich mich schwer, heute habe ich einen großen Schritt erreicht! 😃</p><p><a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/daniiduna" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>daniiduna</span></a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/sprachenlernen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sprachenlernen</span></a></p>
Fabrizio Musacchio<p>Am I the only one who’s found <a href="https://sigmoid.social/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Duolingo</span></a> increasingly frustrating lately? Since around February or March, the quality seems to have dropped significantly. I feel like I’m no longer learning anything meaningful — just going through odd, abstract sentences with little real-life use. Maybe this is due to the shift to <a href="https://sigmoid.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> and firing human translators. I just cancelled my subscription — despite a 400+ day streak and the app’s relentless push notifications 🤷‍♂️</p>
