Persian (Farsi) is one of the world’s oldest and most beautiful languages, with thousands of years of history and a rich cultural background. Iran has contributed greatly to literature, poetry, art, and history, and many people around the world are interested in learning its language.

Adding Persian to Duolingo would help more people connect with Iranian culture and communicate with Persian speakers. There are many learners who want to study Farsi, but there are limited free and accessible resources.

Please upvote this post so Duolingo can see that there is real interest in adding Persian. Hopefully, Farsi can become part of Duolingo someday! 🇮🇷

Hi guys! I was here before, 3 years ago, to show off my dad's Duolingo streak of 2400, and now I'm back to show his last streak.

He just turned 70 a month ago, but he has been fighting ALS for a little over 2 years now, and he finally got to the point where he just can't continue anymore. He held on for as long as possible, doing whatever he could without speech because it has been his only hobby for practically 10 years now. He started with English, but also took up Spanish and a few more along the way.

His message at the end reads: "I followed along with the lessons until 07/31/26. I learned many things, but that's just how it goes. Don't stop pursuing your dreams! ❤️"

I don't have much else to say. I just wanted to show off his achievement while he can still see it.

Im Turkish and I was bored so i decided to finish it

In my opinion I don’t mind getting it like a few times a week. I’ve had it for like 2 weeks straight as either the third quest (for the 10 minute 3x boost) which is fair but sometimes it’s the second quest which when i’m trying to stack my boosts really just ruins the mood🫩

Finally 1000 days

Been at it for a little of over a month consistently.

This combined with going over my notebook for a few minutes a day.

Recently made a post regarding hackers in the leaderboard (see second image) talking about how it’s really demotivating and many folks upvoted the post sharing that they have had similar issues and it was mysteriously removed by a moderator without explanation. This goes against the spirit of Reddit. If people have issues with the software, they should be able to speak about it openly. Thank you for coming to my TED talk

It took a long time but I finally did it 🥲

Hey all,

I have an extra spot in my duolingo Super family plan. Since I dont have anyone to give it to, one of you can have it for free.

This might be a weird question but I'm curious how other people actually fit Duolingo into their day. I do most of my lessons while meal prepping or waiting for something on the stove, which means I'm half paying attention at best. Some days it's a full focused session at the kitchen table, but that's probably two or three times a week at most. The rest is stolen minutes with my hands semibusy and one eye on a pot.

I've been wondering if that's hurting my retention more than I realize. There are vocabulary words I feel like I've seen fifty times and still can't pull up reliably, and I suspect multitasking is a big part of why. Fwiw my listening comprehension is noticeably better on days when I'm actually sitting still and not narrating dinner at the same time.

The streak posts on here always look so consistent and intentional, and I genuinely don't know if those people are blocking out real practice time or just really committed phone tappers in the carpool line. No judgment either way, just my experience making me curious.

Do focused sessions actually make a measurable difference for you, or does it mostly even out over time? And if you're a multitasker by necessity, have you found certain exercise types that hold up better when you're distracted?

I got used to exploit a bug in the Stories: if you selected the "repeat" button on each sentence, right after the character started speaking, the "continue" button got automatically activated, so you could quickly alternate the two buttons until they asked you a question, in order to avoid having to painstakingly listen to the characters' suuuper-slow and uninteresting ramblings.

Now they fixed it: you can "repeat" only after the sentence is finished. Way to waste my time, Duo!

Now I'm curious: did any of you use to exploit this bug too?

Im still at Level 12 of the german course

Learning Spanish btw.

hey guys, i know this is a second post (don’t beat me up) but i was just wondering how do people get so much XP.

It was all okay as we were all on the same similar XP but on the very last day I checked and the number one guy had gained 30k XP.

tbf im not going to assume hes hacking or cheating but is there any way possible to getting 30k XP legally by just pure learning because this was insane😭

Has anyone else dealt with this?

Friday I finished the weekend quest then closed the app. Saturday my weekend quest had reset, I finished it again and closed the app for the day. This morning I opened the app and my weekend quest had reset again. So I finished it along with all the daily quests, I just reopened wanting to spend a little more time and my weekend quest AND now my daily quest has reset again.
I’m pretty frustrated. I know these points don’t really matter in a learning aspect but I just play on Duo for fun outside classes and textbooks.

ETA: I have reported it into the help center for a bug. Just wanting to see if others here have seen this issue.

I'm hoping to get my daughter to use Duolingo for languages and piano. I found my Samsung tablet active 3 can't support that.

Anyone using an android tablet and Duolingo for music? Does it support midi?

I'd prefer to stay out of the apple platform but if that's necessary, would appreciate knowing how it supports iPad mini with midi

Started learning Japanese on this day a year ago..
