Penny, I have been using Duolingo for at least 2 years now. I use it as a free app, though you need to go past some ads to keep it free. Not sure what things you get extra for subscribing or how much it is. I didn't think the description of what they gave you to subscribe was worth whatever the subscription was since I can do what I want to as a free app. The app can be a bit flaky at times, but if you are patient with it the content and lessons are extremely good. If you miss a lot in a lesson you will continue to give you the same material until you master it. Like any learning app you get things for doing the lesson such as a streak of days, hearts to do lessons, and crowns for each series of lessons you do. You can open these things to explore what they can buy. I currently have 272 days learning Spanish. There are also Spanish stories you can listen to to get familiar with listening to Spanish. They also give you credit. You will need to do two lessons in a day to get experience you have to have 20 points per day. Stories that you read give you all the experience you need for the day. I hope this helps a little. You just have to get into the app and explore. Sometimes it helps if you turn off the writing part of it and just pick your sentences from the words that show up in a list. I found this much easier, though you still have to write sometimes. I would put Spanish in your browser and go to the keyboard that way. It has all the accents. As I said I hope this helps some. If you have any other questions right on the list and I’ll try to help.

I am coming in late to this discussion and find that I am very interested in this language program. I clicked on the link and found it very accessible. What service is this? How expensive is it? What languages can one learn? Thanks so much for sharing this information.
