But it very quickly got lonely and repetitive in bliss, so you decided to be born once more. You've been doing this forever. Whilst I may not agree with what you say, I will defend to the death my right to disagree with you. Some say "think outside the box". I say "what fucking box?!" xx:taosmilie: |

Nordlys (OP) User ID: 18100960 Norway 06/19/2012 01:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is a very limited choice of languages to learn I wish there was a choice to choose Russian. Quoting: Tigershield I already know fluid german I would also like to learn Russian some time. I actually have an old book i could use to learn a little. I think it will come to duolingo, but it may take some time. The problem can be the input method to type Cyrillic on the website. Also I would imagine languages like Chinese, Korean and Japanese would be quite popular. "The moment contains love. That is the lesson/goal of this illusion or density." ~ Ra |

Troop User ID: 17634877 Canada 06/19/2012 02:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's great up to the part where I need to speak in the microphone. I'm a daily skype user and know that my microphone works perfectly. However, the program never seems to recognize what i'm saying in german. Always says: oops! we cannot hear you well. I tried mic boost, plugging the microphone somewhere else too. Nothing works... It's probably because my native language is french and they don't recognize the accent.

I turned it off right away, just go to settings and turn off the microphone. It could be a good thing if it worked, but it probably needs some work. "The moment contains love.
