Anyone know if the gluttol stop used in the south developed independently or together with that in Scots?

I think the relationship between English and Scots can be best compared to Spanish and Portuguese. The further north an English speaker goes, the better they understand scots. Likewise, as you move from Castillian to Leonese to Galicia to Portuguese, you'll find people better understand the neighbouring language. Like as an L2 Spanish speaker, i can actually understand a lot of Gallego, but nothing of Portuguese. Although apparently gallegos can have fluent conversations with Portuguese speakers. The main difference jn the two situations is recognition, both official and in the popular imagination

You gotta skip to the next section as soon as you feel comfortable because it is repetitive to go through each lesson… Duolingo works pretty well when you do that! And the streak helps you reinforce everyday learning which passive learners never do. If you’re gung-ho about achieving fluency then Duolingo is not for you but who is??? Very few want realistic fluency

Thanks for the video and book recommendation ☺

Duolingo is a good start to learning a language, but it's not enough. Effective for people who are starting to learn a new language, I would definitely say yes

I find this video very benefical. Thank you.

Instead of wasting my time on Instagram reels, I love to waste my time on Duolingo...

Thank you so much this helped a lot!❤

Can you explain this to me because I have a fear that, for example, if I learn words in context by using them in sentences with Anki, I will just memorize them in this context, and if I encounter that word in a different context in a book, I won't understand what it means or can this not happen?

THIS HEADING FOR THE VIDEO,, SHOULD SAY USELESS TALKING

Let me know when they add hebrew into the available languages please.

Excellent video

I bought Lingopie and I’m hoping this helps me learn Spanish finally. I watch cartoons with subtitles in Spanish and English. It still makes flashcards because I do feel like u need to learn vocab especially when first starting out. I don’t have to take the time out to look up a word, it does it for me. Idk I guess we’ll see if it helps. I just started it.

Apparently duolingo sponsored this

wow , ahh

Dictionary learning using a list of vocabulary worked fine for me learning english and japanese. Just required a lot of grit, grinding and repetition ad nauseum.

Really impressive I'm going to come back to this in a month and see how much I understand without subtitles then again in 2 months then 3 To test my comprehension and listening skills

Even if you live rurally Duo can still find you

C'est trés intéressant cette vidéo

I utterly love that Scots has dozens upon dozens of ways to call someone Stupid, Ugly, or Smelly. Really shows you what you need to communicate. Maybe due to pub etiquette?

Dankon por tío filmo. Estos tre bone man Interesanta.

Pimsleur is really good. I've watched this video 10 months ago. Then I bought the subscription and started following lessons to learn Spanish. Yesterday, I completed level 5, lesson 30. Which means 150 lessons (±75 hours). I can now speak in Spanish with my employees. I clearly understand what they say. With some effort, I can tell most of what I want to say. And to read it is a breeze. And I did it all while driving. Hard to say why, but I feel it was easier while driving that being 100% focused on the lessons. Maybe because my brain did no have time to matter about how well I performed, so no learning inhibition or the like.

Can you recommend some good books for English learners?

I have Oxford dictionary with such transcriptions for fifty years.

2:07 It's Saraiki BRO!

Why didn't I see this video sooner?

The problem is I can't understand lyrics in English or Spanish in a song, that's why lyric videos are so popular. I been singing the wrong lyrics for years!

Tennys, not gym shoes

I say coupon like you, however, if you listen to yourself, you are saying quepon.

Total bullshit on "children's books contain easy language". Magic wands, animal species you'll never come across again, and other vocabulary that will add to the frustration. Try teenager novels instead.

The best app? 🤣🤣🤣 It's the worst app ever

Isnt it ironic that i got a Duolingo ad while entering this video 💀

I am a polyglot speaking 7 languages including Esperanto. I have learned it only because I believe no natural language should be chosen as a common global language . Every natural language has native speakers and this would give them an upper hand over the others who learn the language as a secondary language. There are some criticisms about Esperanto. Most of them are unfair but one of them is very reasonable and that is that Esperanto is a Eurocentric language and I must say this is a true drawback of Esperanto. I think the community of Esperanto must give an essential reform to the language and change some words with the words from other official languages of the world. At the moment there are 120 official languages across the world and Esperanto must have some words derived from all of them . Then we would be able to claim that Esperanto is a neutral language designed for all people of the world.

Thanks for the honesty

I definitely don't say U Betcha like everyone thinks Wisconsinites do. I'm from the very southern borderline of WI/IL and i feel like we're fairly plain sounding. I say soda and pop also don't say bubbler. We sound like most newscasters on TV.

😅

What is a complimentary phrase? How is the word "that" is a complimentary? What are the other examples of that?

Duolingo is grossly ineffective as a language tool and as an ad platform. It's just junk.

Nothing original here!!! This guy is just preaching the same old tune thats been around for decades. Complete waste of time comng to this site!!!

Unfortunately some of us have to learn just to prove we have a proficient level in a language to companies in order to get hired.

Did apps n vids for a month, then immersed in country for a month; still don’t know a single phrase. Languages don’t make sense to me.

At 3: 49 he said if you watch the video 5 years from now go ahead and do it .. Just the I realised it's really 5 years 😂he's talking to me

Enjoyed your video. Did I hear you pronounce "especially" with a 'k' sound?

66 years old and I want to learn

You should look up the word Fingtam in Duolingo in the hungarian section.

In an alternate timeline, you’re Thomas DeLauer

For learning Portuguese you can try the book "Learn Portuguese with Immersive Short Stories: Sombras do Passado"

does anybody have a solution for when they tell you that you can only make 20 LingQs ?

You're a great teacher you should be a professor

I wanted to listen to your accent because back in 2009, I tried out for a play where a character was a tough fisherwoman with a Wisconsin accent -- and the stupid boy who directed looked at me as though I had 2 heads every time I spoke -- and he chose a woman who used a sweet Norwegian Lady accent like the sweet ladies from "I Remember Mama" whicxh was all wrong for that character. Mine was accurate. I had done an impression of Susan Hawk from Survivor 1 (2000, the first one). He was a fool! I was right and he was wrong! Sue Hawk was a tough hunter-type truck and a driver, and sounded something like what you demonstrated. EX: where you lengthen the "o" Sue used to do that when she said the word "tapioca."
