Explanation: Germans used to (apparently only in my bubble) call cellphones “Handy” and many people still do that. My friends from america found that quite hilarious.

Duolingo in general isn’t very good for learning a language. Their approach doesn’t work because what explanation there is is sparse and not in depth enough. They expect the user to recognise patterns on their own but that frequently causes people to see patterns that aren’t there and to misunderstand grammar points. It might be an okay-ish tool to practice what you already know.
If you were successful with Duolingo, congrats, you were lucky.
Duolingo leans very heavily into memory based learning. I would love to see us do away with this model, but it’s what they do in schools.
That said, I have basic reading and writing comprehension after two years, so it’s not all bad. I still believe a toddler would best me though.
