Hola, I'm Nate. I used to not know any Spanish at all, and I had no interest in learning the language. I thought learning Spanish would be boring, a waste of time, and would provide no value to my life. Then I started taking Spanish classes in high school and everything changed for me. I struggled with learning the language a lot at first, but thanks to my teachers and my Spanish speaking friends, they helped make the learning process fun. Within a few months, I had gotten to a conversational level, but more important, I had become a more confident person. The real win for me, though, was the friendships I made and strengthened. I discovered that not only did I have higher self esteem, but being out in the real world with people, whether old friends or new ones I met, made me feel more alive and connected with the world around me. Now it's my goal to create videos that make you smile and inspire you to learn Spanish or another language!

"You cant learn Spanish using duo lingo" also "buy my course"

@BrendanishLeo 7 дней назад

To be clear, these statements aren't necessarily problematic. It's correct to be skeptical when someone says something doesn't work, but their product does. However to show it's an issue you need to show that either 1) the product they find issue with is actually fine, or 2) their product has the same issues or more. His definition of fluency doesn't include Duolingo as it won't get you to c2~. However I do not believe his product will either. (Also, I'm generally against duo as I started in JP 5+ years ago, but supposedly modern Spanish duo gets you to b2 which is unironically pretty impressive!)

@paxonearth Год назад

Nate, I didn't even have to watch the entire video to know that you're giving Duolingo a fair and accurate assessment. I just started (again) with Duo French. I think all of these language apps are a GREAT tool for getting started in any language, but to be truly fluent- being able to think in the target language without having to translate the conversation into one's native language (my definition of fluency)- you have to be conversing regularly with native speakers. I mean, isn't that the goal of language learning anyway? The fantasy of becoming fluent in a language without speaking it in real situations is like dreaming that you'll become a great fighter without having to do any sparring.

And some have no qualms about cheating. One person is ahead of me by 5000 points, though I was doing a ton more lessons and also getting lots of points for reviewing, she was doing something, to score easily 3000 points in less than an hour. I told Duolingo. They didn't care. However, they have at least improved the website, and you can learn a lot. My Spanish has improved a lot, but I could already speak in Spanish, though broken Spanish.

@tonyfuturepolyglot Год назад

Great points Nate! It's true; Duolingo is not an one size fits all solution to language learning (just like any other app because they focus on one or two facets of learning). It's a supplement to your language learning. Especially for me, I use it just to warm myself up for my daily language routine. Anki and SpanishDict are great resources as I agree with you Nate. They're great ways to keep expanding your vocabulary because the more vocabulary you acquire, the more sentences you can form. You hit the nail when it comes to going out and speaking with people in real time because it is a different ball game. When I went to Puerto Rico and Costa Rica the past few years, I ended up struggling a bit to understand a lot of what natives were saying and it was because I didn't put enough practice into speaking with natives in real time. I think at best I only understood 20-30% of what natives were saying, but being able to visit Latin American countries or places gave me that chance to practice in real time. Muchas gracias por tus videos como siempre hermano! Cuídate!

@christianornelas994 Год назад

@jasperoosthoek 11 месяцев назад

My biggest problem with Duolingo is that it takes ages before you learn anything but the present (indicative) tense. It will teach you: "I am really interested in European art", but not: "I told you that.", "She had to work yesterday", "They arrived two days ago", "Could you help us?" or "I want you to know that". As you would understand, these sentences all use different tenses and moods. So instead of slowly letting you get used to a few past tenses early on it just hooks you with an addictive interface. My work around is that I use a lot of phrases from Duolingo and use DeepL translator to change it to a different tense because there are so many to learn.

I think you have based your review on the old DuoLingo and from what you are saying, you are missing some very important features in the newest (since about 2/2023) version of the app. I was using the old DuoLingo (for Spanish) for a few months, then I was forced to take a break. When I came back, the new version had just launched. A lot has changed. The biggest change for me is the switch to dynamic lesson content. DuoLingo now adjusts your lessons to fit your needs and it works surprisingly well. I am a software engineer and I can "see" the algorithm running the system. If I am having trouble with a new word, DuoLingo can tell and adjusts my lessons on the fly giving more emphasis to the word or concept I am struggling with. If I am "getting it", DuoLingo also adjusts and does not burden me with continually asking me to spell "aqui" for example. I am very pleased with the new version, and I feel I have a better assessment because I have used it BEFORE AND AFTER the upgrade. It might be helpful to explore these new features and tell people about it. Thanks for the VID...

@languageswithevan Год назад

Thanks for the video and your thoughts. I made a video about Duolingo too when I hit 1000 days and my thoughts are similar. I think it’s a great tool to expose people to the language but needs to be used along with other resources as people get out there and practice what they’re learning.

@G2Dom_ Год назад

As someone who has just reached 365 days on duolingo (but around 15 months learning without streak freezes) i can say that it helps knowing the language but still listening to spanish speakers and speaking is difficult. I'm in a small UK town so don't know any spanish speakers irl that are local, my comprehension for music and reading is fine but that's done at my own pace and leisure, but i've found for the times when i'm either listening to spanish conversation through videos or in person, and sometimes need to reply that's where all my knowledge kinda just leaves me as i'm not used to actually conversing in it. I'm not one for doing online classes, so it's rare that i verbally speak spanish and after a year+ of learning i still feel like my spanish isn't the best, but my spanish speaking friends tell me that i'm doing good and to keep it up! i go away to spain in june for 2 weeks so i'm putting extra work into this test of seeing how my spanish actually fairs when i'm actually conversing

I've been using it for 60 days non-stop, it's just about ok. It doesn't immerse you in the language enough. I think none of these apps do. Duo lingo gets you started. I talk to friends in Italy on hellotalk and WhatsApp and that is still a long way behind being in the actual country. Still, if you are young with a good memory you can easily reach a very good conversational level from your own country as long as you put in the time. With a good memory {mine is atrocious} 40 minutes to an hour a day within 9 to 12 months, you will be conversationally fluent in the target language. I was in Montenegro speaking to 13-year-old boys in a supermarket. Their conversational English was fantastic and they had never been outside Montenegro plus a very few people in Montenegro spoke English when I was there.

I used to be fluent in Spanish but I lost it. I've been using Duolingo to get it back and I've been starting to speak in full sentences again.

Listen to Spanish podcasts. It will sound gibberish at first but as you progress, you will start to understand a few words. You have to give your brain time to figure out the language structure and grammar. Don't give up. Once your brain figures it out, things will become easier. It's getting to the top of the hill that is the hardest part.

Yehh the thing that people forget is you can’t JUST rely on duolingo to become fully fluent or gain fluency. Duolingo is supposed to be used next to other things, like immersing yourself with foreign media e.g news articles, videos, films or even books etc etc. of course speaking with natives is the biggest thing too!!

@jwuk11345 Год назад

But also, you can never really fully learn a language because there are so many things like regional dialects, accents, and phrases which aren't translatable or have double meanings. (for example in English you would learn that chicken is an animal or food but not that it also means coward or a dangerous game people play, or a phrase like "saving for a rainy day" which might not make sense if you don't also understand English sayings, of which there are thousands)

@SimmsRyan97 4 дня назад

Duolingo won't help you become fluent (i.e. say anything accurately) but will help you learn a lot of building blocks to help you communicate with native speakers. It will teach reading, writing, listening and speaking skills. From there you're going to have to do things like watch films and tv in a foreign language or begin basic conversation with native speakers. The thing people get scared about is saying something and then the response is spoken to quickly they can't understand and freeze. I used to do it, now I listen for key words and responding.

So, I started learning Spanish today; I had bought some textbooks on it (and Italian, too) some time ago and finally have some time to try, but the problem is, I have no one to speak with (I live in Bulgaria), so my only help is the pieces of advice in the textbooks (listening to songs, movies, writing down the words from scrips, etc). Duolingo helped me with Russian, but I did develop it more with actually speaking to Russian speaking people (my job is such, that I often have to speak with Russian speaking people, especially if they don't speak English). Duolingo is likely to help me with pronunciation to an extent, but is Duolingo alone enough to be fluent? Absolutely not, yet it is a valuable source, especially given that it's free and more accessible. So - wish me luck, people.

@anthonydanna1701 Год назад

All that is required to learn a language to fluency is input, particularly listening for the first several hundred hours of studying. Speaking can help you get an idea of where you're at in terms of acquiring a language, but speaking will not improve your vocabulary or help you learn anything. Speaking before having a good concept of all of the sounds (not by consciously studying the alphabet, but by large amounts of exposure) can create bad habits and hinder your ability to develop a native-like accent. It takes a long time to ACQUIRE (NOT learn) a language. How do babies begin to pick up a language? They don't boot up duolingo and study grammar and vocabulary. They simply acquire the meaning of words through context and mass exposure. This is the only way to ACQUIRE a language so you don't have to do mental gymnastics trying to translate from one language to another in your head. The problem with duolingo is it makes you FEEL like you're acquiring the language, when you're only consciously LEARNING the language, and learning will do practically nothing when it comes to holding a conversation with a native speaker. What's the point of being able to say hundreds of unique sentences if you can't understand the response to them because you're lacking auditory input? I have no affiliation with any language learning website, but after using dreamingspanish's website and method of comprehensible input for roughly 300 hours now, I've noticed a HUGE improvement in my listening comprehension and can follow many conversations fairly comfortably. Learning a language takes a lot of persistence and dedication. Duolingo is a quick and dirty shot of language-LEARNING (not ACQUIRING) dopamine that gets people so distracted by the cute sounds and interface, they often don't realize they're not truly acquiring the language until they try to have a conversation and notice they're immediately lost. Duolingo's only real use case is when you want to learn just enough phrases to get by in a Spanish-speaking country and don't care about actually being able to have a conversation with anyone in the language.

First, never write long things because nobody will read it. Second, I got to the first part and that was wrong so I'll comment on that alone. In order to learn a language you have to speak a language.

@@krane15 First, some things can only be condensed so much. Second, wrong. A growing number of people have learned a non-native language to the point of conversational fluency exclusively through comprehensible input. All speaking does is help you benchmark your current level. With just over 300 hours of listening practice and practically 0 hours practicing conversation, I'm able to communicate in a decent range of daily topics like weather, food, and daily activities. I know I'm able to because the phrases just come naturally to me after receiving the input that I have.

I too am struggling with comprehension of the spoken word. DuoLingo does help me with comprehension. Nearly every sentence has a "listen to this phrase" button and I always close my eyes and I listen several times until I can "decode" the spoken word fluently. This has done wonders. Just because you don't use the listening feature doesn't mean it does not exist. And speaking too! I am regularly required to "speak the phrase" and if I fail to enunciate properly (roll the rr's and end a question with a rise in tone) DuoLingo will make me repeat it until I get it right. I don't know how any automated system could do better.

Can you speak to your app yet? If not, then I don't think you can. Although, it has been seven years since I last used it

@krane15 Год назад

Spanish is the second most popular language in the U.S. It would be impossible for me not to find a Spanish speaking partner. Well somebody that speaks Spanish since partner indicates a relationship.

They are grouping up with AI, AI should allow you to speak and be responded to basically instantly. It will likely also point your mistakes out. I imagine this will be a pro feature.
