Do you use Duolingo?
Enough to hold a conversation if you finish the skills tree and keep practising. However in my opinion, it really can't teach you to speak the language fluently, but I think that's quite obvious because it's just a website...MistahDave wrote:How detailed does it get?
But it definitely is enough to learn the basics of the language, a knowledge which you can always expand later.
Myself, I really like Duolingo, I tried every language available but of course it is not possible to learn all languages at once. I'm mainly learning Spanish, German and a bit of Swedish, and I've reached level 8 or 9 in Dutch and French (I learn French at school so I don't practise on Duolingo much).
Unfortunately Duolingo doesn't support Finnish yet. I'm much more impatient waiting for this one than you're when waiting for a new ProMods version

If i could be possible to do finnish language myself, i would do it.

From my own experience, I have completed the Swedish course and I still had a hard time to understand Swedish when people talked fast...
However, I can make much more sense out of Swedish texts now, so that's a plus. I just need more exposure to spoken Swedish, and it doesn't help that most Swedes tend to switch to English immediately after they notice you have trouble with speaking Swedish.![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Well, Internet (free) courses can give you the basics of the language, but to speak it fluently you have to listen a lot. A good method is watching video or films in original language, so people speak fast, like in real life.
It's good to keep practising, otherwise you loose your achievements / progress

If Polish doesn't have a hidden Ku*wa in it, i'll be disappointed ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
Does Duolingo even have Easter Eggs? I mean, they'd perhaps break the spirit of learning, but it'd be good to have a laugh or two.
