  • It's just not good as a learning tool. I'd recommend learning elsewhere and using Duolingo for reviewing or getting familiar with the language. (and only if you like it)

    • @mtlvmpr Okay, what tools do you suggest?

      • Do you know the kana already? Those should be your priority nr. 1 priority in whatever you do.

        Input is also very important. Fastest way is to start using Anki deck(free) or Wanikani(paid) so you'll get past the kanji barrier. Learn grammar from a textbook or alternatively Youtube channels like TokiniAndy and/or CureDolly. If you like games, Game Gengo is an excellent channel as well.

        Are you a native English speaker? If not then you might want to pick up a Japanese textbook from your local library as some things are much easier to understand through your native language.
