      He needs to do a French diss video that says French isn't a romance language but a Simp for Romance langauges.. It dresses like a romance langauge just like those weabos that dress in Japanese samurai attire but in reality its Englishes brother and its a Germanic kid ashamed of its Germanic roots.. some reason it thinks that its related to Spanish, Portugese and Italian.

      @@patax144 Romanian is romance no doubt, it has the classic roman pronunciatoin as its similar to Portugese. Pretty much Portugese and Romanian are the most closest to an accurate late Roman pronunication.
      But yeah, Italian, Spanish, Portugese and Romanian all share the same consistencies.
      French reads like its Romance but in rality when it's spoken it's beyond just a simple romance language its truly a hybrid or different family all together.
      I would like to call it a Galeo-Gaermanic Romance language.
      But I pulled a Latin Text from 300 AD
      And I did a comparison of translation from modern Italian, Portugese,Romanina , Spanish and French..
      and French was the most different from al.
      #1 The first lesson you learn is thta Spanish and Italian were very similar.
      #2. Portugese is similar to Spanish but just has a different accent .Romanian was similar
      #3.French initially read similar but when pronounced it was totally different in fact there were similarities to English but even then the pronunciation was not Germanic nor Latin it was weird.
      I can show you examples later.. but its such a strange langauge.
      I started to do a French project, what if French was more Romance.. or what if Englisha nad Spanish became like French..
      What I learned is that French is an anomoly.

    duolingo is great if used as one of many tools you use to learn a language. ive found duolingo to be very useful in building consistency and also learning pronunciation, vocabulary through repetition. It helps build a little confidence aswell so you can start dipping your feet in other material without feeling too intimidated

      I have been using Duolingo for a month now to learn French. Yes, the app helps one build a habit, learn pronunciation and vocab too. That said, i believe it would only get me to a proficiency level where i can confidently converse if I learn from other materials as well. Do u have any recommendation I can look into online, be it paid or free?

    I actually use duolingo only to maintain the daily habit. The actual learning happens much more with flashcards, rocket Spanish, and (this is the kicker) binging star wars the clone wars in Spanish with no subtitles despite hearing loss.
    That's made my confidence in engaging native speakers in written or spoken for much greater. I'm much less intimidated now.
    Flashcards for vocabulary expansion
    Formal, practically oriented, guided lessons (preferably audio)
    Listening practice (hundreds of hours of active listening worth. Pick your favorite series)

      Not really. He’s making fun of people who use duolingo. Most people don’t stick around to see the rest that duolingo has to offer. Near the end of the lessons, it will get more and more difficult. The sentences will get more and more complex and the learning will pick up the pace. Eventually you’d be learning several words per lesson.
      You can’t just use duolingo though. You have to use other tools as well. It is a good starting point, however.

Then I added some grammar studying after realizing how terrifying russian was and still played duolingo daily, after all I was already in the middle of the pond thanks to duolingo so I swam harder a bit. After learning all grammar concepts I switched to lingq to get more vocab and talked to russians online.
