Incorrect Pronunciation
The thing is that I’m not new to Chinese. I can speak well enough, (according to a friend) with correct tones and rather clear. I also don’t find distinguishing between tones particularly difficult. That is to say: tones are frequently misused in this app to the point of annoyance for me and potential misinformation to another person.
There are multiple times when third tones (ǎ, falling rising) are pronounced as first tones (ā, flat), or where second tones (á, rising) are pronounced as fourth tones (à, falling), OR where neutral tone words are pronounced with 3rd tone for some reason???? Not to mention, I’m not sure if all of the translations are accurate.
With tones, of course for some words they change in context but there is no context here to change them. They shouldn’t sound this off.
Learning german
Has potential to be better
Would give 5 stars except for one thing...
There is no way to see how many sessions I completed in a given day.
There is no way to see how much time I spent learning in the app.
I can't even see the little diagram comparing the last 7 days / 30 days / 90 days unless I spend time on another session and see that chart during the review.
I really like having that data available. If they will fix this issue, I will happily revise my review.
Better than Duolingo
I love it sm!!!
Try Ling instead
I like this one
Lost streak
Update: 4 to 2 …Makes learning fun through interaction
Decent for vocab still but even then I’ve been using Anki.
Ive been using this app along with LingoDeer, and DuoLingo. This app is the most fun. It’s a great filler in between more advanced learning like LingoDeer. I find myself just wanting to play on Drops. It doesn’t feel like studying but I already know many words I never knew before thanks to Drops.
I did notice that their voice for “I write” is said in blunt form when the Hangul says it in polite form. “자는 글을 써요” is said like “나는 글을 쓴다”
In addition — Practice is spelled incorrectly on the “Practise now” page. You have it spelt with an s instead of a c twice.
