Most learners struggle to find material that’s both interesting and comprehensible. AI solves that. Create your own audio, get accurate summaries of advanced texts, and explore otherwise inaccessible topics. #polyglottips

私は、自学のモチベーションを保つには、大きく分けて3つの方法があると思っています。
・大きな目標と小さな目標を持つこと
・自分を強制的に動かすこと
・適度に周りから突き動かされること
I believe there are three main ways to maintain self-study motivation:
・Having big & small goals
・Forcing yourself to act
・Being moderately pushed by others

For further context, I've had this exercise where I HAVE been able to type. #duolingo #learninglanguage #Duo #日本語 #DuolingoJapanese #Japaneselearning #Nihongo #Languagelearning
In the past, this (relatively new exercise) has allowed me to type my answer in, and based on context, the "tap to see word bank" is like an assistance thing if you're struggling, but recently I've found there's no way for me to type my answer?? No matter where I tap I get the word bank. #duolingo

Hands down
Meaning: without a doubt the best
When you say something is “hands down” the best, you’re not arguing.
You’re declaring a winner.
Would you use it to talk about food, people, or your favorite language?
