Some Duolingo highlights from last year
Jan. 8th, 2019 07:29 pmWhile German Duolingo is not obsessed by death and sugar the way Italian Duolingo is, it has its own quirks.
( Some of them are silly )
But it seems to have a thing for ( ducks, pigs and horses. )
( Some of them, on the other hand, are just plain odd or creepy )
Particularly sinister is "when I regained consciousness I was in a big room."
I know it's not Duolingo's fault, but "Vienna needs a little tourism" is a sentence wrong on many levels.
There were a few unnervingly accurate phrases though, such as "the textbooks are too expensive."
Worryingly I know that the Duolingo German for "warning, radiation" is accurate from experience.
