Duolingo game software - Review

I have been a Duolingo user since June 2012. I was on the waiting list to try it out with its first language courses. In over 10 years, I have started courses in my over 30 languages including Norwegian, Welsh, Indonesian, and Navajo. Above, is my language learning journey for my top 20 languages over the last 10 years.

Recently, Duolingo has added Duolingo ABC to teach children to read.

Next, Duolingo is expanding to teach mathematics and is expecting to have this new app out by the end of 2022.
