Do people really use this garbage for learning languages? No grammar, just full sentence memorization over and over, how retarded do you have to be spend more than 10 minutes doing this?
>>219805021It’s genuinely not bad for a beginner in a language as a way to just spend time with the language but probably two or three months in you shouldn’t be touching itIt’s also retardly easy and repetitive but I don’t think it’s a bad way to begin exposure to a language
>>219805021Learning grammar is pointless until you know the wordsVocabulary is really all that matters Even in languages with a lot of grammar like Russian
>>219807656This and learning grammar is discouraging.
>>219805021Apps only care for how much money and screen time you spend on them. The whole point is to make you believe you are learning something.
>>219807656If Russian grammar is so complex how come they all speak like cavemen when speaking English?
Nah, it's just a shitty minigame with a streak hook that oneshots normies for some reason.
>>219807708Cause they don't have articles
>>219807656Nobody trains grammar without also learning words. Baffling post.
>>219808202>learn how to say "apple">яблoкo>cool>now learn the 5 other ways to say it>now with plurals>probably some other ways cause lol Slav language>do that for every nounOR>just learn the damn nominative case and tackle the grammar when it comes upDrilling a bunch of suffixes into your head is tiring and annoying
>>219805021>GrammarI don't even know how grammar works in French and yet I'm still capable of reading the schizophrenic post on /fr/. Acquiring vocab and learning grammar patterns through reading a ton works for me rather than constantly doing grammar drills which I'm gonna figure the second after seeing it.
>>219805021no need for your silly grammar or your silly games, I just input
>>219809930Learning anything is recalling. If you don't practice recall, then you won't be able to recall it in a situation.
>>219810172input practices recall, reading grammar explanations does not, so I don't know what your point is. If you're talking about output practice I prefer to wait until my comprehension is very good
>>219805021the problem is that if you look at the talk pages for the sentences a lot of them are disputed by native speakers
>>219805021It's not bad but it's a tool, not the entire toolboxThe sentences are meant to be nonsensical in some cases to help you remember. You take notes and use it as a supplement to your learning, not as a replacement to everything.The only courses that are fully really good at getting you to a decent level outside of their mainstays are Norwegian and Scottish Gaelic funny enough
>>219805021What language are you trying to learn that you don't think Duo is a good start to learning some words?
