Overview

Duolingo is an education and language learning utility that can help users of all knowledge levels to easily learn not only the basics of several international languages but also help them to become fluent speakers with a great study approach that will steadily build up their knowledge and ability to understand and converse in a foreign language. The app has integrated support for learning English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Danish, or even Japanese!
The procedure of learning a language is built on top of techniques that have received full support from learning language schools. This includes personalizing learning lessons for each user, enabling them to learn and review their vocabulary at their own pace, motivating each user via a constant stream of rewards as their dictionary, phrase recognition, grammar, and general fluency becomes better, immediate grading with built-in tips how to best reach the correct answer, and accelerated schedule that can introduce the student to the most relevant new language skills in record time.

According to the claims presented by Duolingo, just 34 hours of learning with this platform equals the effort that is needed to spend at one University semester.

The user interface of the Duolingo for PC is not focused on dry text fields and old-school graphics like in many other language learning apps. Instead, users of Duolingo will be presented with an eye-catching interface that immediately showcases how will it gradually teach anyone a foreign language. The teaching sessions are separated into lessons that are focused on one particular subject, with all of those subjects being represented with eye-catching icons.

At the start, the user has the ability to move between few unlocked themes (for example “Basics”, “People” and “Travel”), and after earning enough points then many new areas unlock. This enables users to always have fun and diverse new lesson waiting for them.

The lessons found in Duolingo are focused more on beginners, enabling them to learn all the basics – comprehend a new language, recognize words and sentences, grammar structure, and popular conversation tactics, but it cannot describe more advanced approaches that can enable users to truly master a new language.

However, this approach has shown excellent results in beginning learners who just want to get a handle on an unknown language before tacking advanced lessons. Duolingo can be used for FREE on any modern PC that runs Windows 8, Windows 10, or Windows 11 OS.
