I Tried Speedrunning Duolingo's NEW UPDATE in a Random Language!

Listen... I know that this is one day late, but we can just pretend I posted it yesterday, right? 🤝
Happy second anniversary to the first speedrun! Duolingo's new update is a bit controversial, so this was a good test! You can witness the real-time emotional damage this speedrun caused me...
I am not affiliated with Duo the Owl in any way. Luckily, my family remains safe and sound because I maintain my streak!!

Or hunt down the abundant Dutch views by continuing in languages in which she's already made progress.

@eg I used Duolingo to learn the Arabic script. This app isn’t the best at teaching languages but I was pleasantly surprised by how thorough the alphabet part in Arabic was. I did also take Arabic for a year in university, but it is such a difficult language I don’t even remember how to introduce myself at this point…

[@shangobunni5]

Looking at other comments here, it seems that Duo got rid of the labels for each lesson (e.g., Objects, Past Tense 3, etc.) and the grammar tips that go with each lesson. I think that’s a terrible move. I love how it is (or was) organized the old way and I study all the grammar tips along the way. The tips are important to me. 😢

[@twinfettuccine]

They were really important to me, too! I used to take diligent notes for each lesson... Now, they're all consolidated into the Unit Guidebook which I feel isn't as effective. Idk, I kind of hate it! 😔

It isn't because you're slow, it's the update. Duolingo has decided that making a long, grindy course is more important to them than making one that teaches effectively.

[@logan2113]

This redesign does make it more efficient.

[@matthewflowers1079]

Yeah it takes so long now. Before the update I felt like I was learning so much so fast and now I’m stuck on the same subject for days 🥲

[@logan2113]

@Sophie As an advanced learner... the old designed sucked for me. It was limiting and redudant and the new design is more efficient even if it's less fun. But that might also be how you use it. For me, it's more fun and I like that the learning is more efficient for remembering what I've covered. It's also more holistic. It might force us on a path, but it's the best path for learning through the app. imo. you don't have to agree. But they aren't just throwing things at the wall and hoping for the best. they have a research department.

[@poisonappleantiques5710]

@@matthewflowers1079 This interesting because I feel the exact opposite. Before I felt like I was regurgitating the same lessons ad nauseam, whereas now I'm making much faster progress.

[@matthewflowers1079]

@@poisonappleantiques5710 I think I went through the previous design faster than intended because I never tried to level up or do legendary on any of the lessons, I would just continue progressing as soon as the next lessons became available. I think the uncertainty of whether to keep practicing or move on was a big confusion for a lot of people, but I just didn’t care lol. The new design forces you to practice what you’ve already learned but maybe that’s a good thing

[@44electra]

As a Romanian-American and long time subscriber, I was really surprised when the random number generator landed on Romanian. I feel like it’s definitely the forgotten romance language. Honestly though, your pronunciations were really good! The only word that was a little wonky was barbat, it’s more like burr-baat (baa like a sheep) Also, the word for beard is actually barba, so you were right about that connection!! Loved the video

As a portuguese speaker I was surprised that I could understand most of the sentences in Romanian.

[@loldot1337]

Ты не забыл о уроках Русского даже сегодня? Я надеюсь...

The reason why it is so linear now is that now EVERYTHING is mixed into the path, from practices, to stories, to brand new lessons. Also, the reason why it is eerily similar looking to mobile games like Candy Crush is merely an attempt to make it look more fun, at least, that's what it looks like to my understanding. The new look may also just be an attempt to market it more towards mobile game players.

[@twinfettuccine]

Yeah, for a few years now, Duolingo has been game-ifying language learning! To be fair, it's definitely worked! I've kept up a streak for over 500 days now, and I'm mostly motivated by the League and the Weekly Friend Challenges, ngl! 😅

[@mageyplss]

@@twinfettuccine Yeah, the reason why Babbel fell behind was because Duolingo just looked so much more charming & approachable, not to mention its meme status. Although now, duolingo users have been announcing that they might quit & move to babbel, so this might be the start of the app's downfall.

As a native Romanian speaker, this was so fun to see! The “â” and “î” sound the same and make the sound like the e in “eww” but not as in “bee” “tree” (closer to the top of your mouth, more like the instinctive sound). The “ă” makes a deeper uh sound like in “ugh”. “Ț” is “ts” and “ș” is “sh”. Romanian doesn’t have definite articles, so the ending of the word changes depending on if it’s masculine (-ul) or feminine (-a). A boy is “un băiat” and the boy is “băiatul,” while a girl/the girl is “o fată/fata.” There is also a neuter gender in Romanian where the noun accords with the masculine in the singular and the feminine in the plural. Overall, you did a good job!

For some languages that go "i eat apple, i eat bread" at first - it does. The language I'm learning right now has a surprisingly good course with everyday words and phrases included without the fever dream sentences, but it still lacks actual theory so that the twists like "actually you DON'T have to put the pronounce all the time!" and alldat won't be that surprising. I miss theory.

[@diggyshovel]

I like the new design, the old one was fine but there’s nothing wrong with this either

[@twinfettuccine]

yeah, that's true! I kind of miss the stories and notes, though... but the units are a bit shorter and seem more digestible!

[@Deli_Vius]

15:26 btw there's such a think as mustard flavoured icecream. Very ridiculous, I know

[@remusciuciu2840]

The way you pronounce suc makes me so happy, it's incredible

[@Taylover13497]

[@srahh__v3897]

“Please don’t be French, please don’t be French, please don’t be French. .” Me: 100-day streak on Duolingo French.

I freaked out seeing Hetalia America. Great video LMAO

[@twinfettuccine]

LMAO 😭 A blast from the past!

[@Milokissavlk]

@@twinfettuccine No man Himaruya recently made a new strip where America just brings out a whole bunch of long Furbies. Also the Netherlands teaches us about economic, because of course he does.

[@twinfettuccine]

@@Milokissavlk You're telling me Himaruya himself is still making Hetalia webcomics in the Year of Our Lord 2022?!?! And Furbies are canon to Hetalia?? I'm shaking and crying rn 😭

[@Milokissavlk]

@@twinfettuccine oh oh yes, he’s still making them. Literally Japan got a Furby to give to his dog. Germany bought a whole bunch of long Furbys because apparently they are ”art”. Anyways I just wanna say this video is Uber impressive you did a good job my friend!

[@Nickname-dq8ew]

New update, new runs!

[@allywilliams6849]

This update is the exact definition of my learning style, but it should be optional for others. This update motivated me more than the prior design.
