This isn't a learning app, this is a gaming app designed to take your money. Yes, you can use it for free, and I was quite prepared to sign up once I'd given it a good go, but they don't actually explain anything. The easy stuff is fine, but when it gets more complex you're just left without any hearts (lives) which you then gain back from practice, however the practice exercises are all easy stuff you learned several lessons ago, you don't get to practice the stuff you're struggling with. Which means you don't learn it. I learned more on Google Translate trying to get the answers to things Duolingo hadn't explained. Plus they have the American flag for English and the Brazilian flag for Portuguese! Newsflash Duolingo, English is from England, and Portuguese is from Portugal. How can you trust a language app that doesn't even know where the language comes from? If you want to learn a language don't bother with this, it's rubbish.
