I might live to regret posting this commitment 🫠, but today I started using Duolingo to learn Portuguese. I realize that Duolingo’s Portuguese is Brazilian and those in the know tell me that there are differences, but I would like to use Duolingo to get me going. As a backup, I have another app that has European Portuguese, it just does not have an ongoing program.
About a year ago @jean shared some resources with me which definitely helped, Portuguese went from being a series of sounds to indentifiable words starting to shine through. However, I feel that I need a lower level commitment. A challenge, yes, but I need to change the pace of that challenge.
I’ll see where Duolingo can take me. Day one completed.
