I Tried to Become Literate with Duolingo ABC!

- This is unironically the most fun I've had with Duolingo *ever*. This is such a good app, what the heck? How do we petition Duolingo to make the regular app like this one?
As usual, I am in no way affiliated with Duolingo! This is not sponsored and the Owl definitely isn't holding my family hostage or anything! 😃

Shoutout to @zamasoom. for somehow knowing that I would make this video! 😭 We were really on the same wavelength. 🤝

We heard Duo's voice for perhaps the first time in our lives and no one is surprised.
I never thought he would sound like that
@@imbored457 he sounds like roger craig smith
I actually didn't realize that was his voice at first-- I was _shocked_!
omg ur right 😭

"Science is a language. Math is a language."
A math as a language app would be awesome. That's literally the biggest hurdle to reading formulas.

You could take inspiration from Alan Becker's Animation vs. Math.
it already exists
It exists
It comes to Android together with music duolingo on october 11. For iPhone, the math Version already exist
I know that you were joking but duolingo rpg sounds like a seriously good idea. Like Prodigy for language.
Yes
Yes please, and all of the different regions are based after different languages. Also you should fight the enemies by filling out the flashcards.
Omg YES
I'm in a language-learning app development server
we're still very early on, so i might actually propose this idea
Lingo Legend is kinda like "what if a story based strategy game taught you a language" idea and I really enjoy playing it, highly recommend
you might have already said this but afaik the reason the letter m is taught first is because usually m doesn't have any pronunciation variants. Like imagine teaching the letter h to a kid, theres voiced h, unvoiced h, ch, sh, gh, th, plus you have to teach when it's silent, m is just "m"
Whoa, that makes a lot of sense!
@@twinfettuccineYay
Not to mention that “th” covers two different sounds. One voiced and the other unvoiced. (🤪 English is fun!)
The first letter we learned in Kindergarten was c which might be the worst one to start with.
@@morbidsearch what about t
My mom is a preschool teacher, I believe they start with letters like M and L (letters with straight lines) because they're easier for kids to write than vowels like O and U.
Ohh, that makes a lot of sense! I can see how that would be easier for kids to learn!
also m is one of the first things small children can pronounce. normally its 'a' because you just have to open your mouth and then make noise and then the children will play around with different mouth a lip positions and 'm' is super easy because you just have to start with your lips together and then open your mouth. also why children say 'mama' and 'dada' as first words
That's interesting. In my class (I'm from Portugal, so maybe that's why), we learned the letters u and I first, because they look similar when you write them (we use cursive writing).

I’m glad Duolingo is educating the youth on cultural memes, truly preparing them for the future
The DuoLore is expanding with every video
THE DUOLORE PLEASE--
Duolingo: Into The DuoVerse
i laughed incomprehensibly at this
NOO YOU ARE WRITING ALL THE SECR-
The Duoverse grows even more
cant wait for duolingo world - the app where you learn geogrpahy!
@@koiyune This gave me an idea for a duolinguo history. Then I realized that would be the dumbest decision for them to actually make it.
I heard they making duolingo music now lol
@@hexyellow9873 What did they do in The holocaust! (Duolingo being happy in the holocaust)
lowkey wish that they had different languages bc it would be kinda helpful for learning a fully new language
It would be helpful for kids that speak a language that doesn't use the basic Latin alphabet, so this app wouldn't just be for English speakers.
@@andrewpinedo1883 Yeah, but Duolingo kinda does that already. At least with languages whose script is somewhat difficult, but seemingly doable, unicode & finite (unlike Mandarin & Klingon for example) there is usually an extra section to practice them. Though I personally hate how they handled it for Korean as you learn basically nothing by just trying to just write it as an approximation to English (meaning w/o diacritics) & mostly the easy self-explanatory syllables. I'm much more convinced with Yiddish as that's basically Hebrewfied medieval German.
@@whohan779 Japanese does the kana section pretty well imo!
I agree that the children's level stories would be great for other languages' basics
@@ursamajo.r I'd agree with that, but the rest of the course was rather awful when I last checked it in 2022.
Don't get me wrong: it wasn't just hard, too basic or too short (that title would go to something like Finnish), but it seemed incoherent and taught stuff that was in no real relation (first lesson was food I think).
I'm amazed by the revelation that most of the Duolingo characters, including Duo himself, were childhood friends.
no son amigos, son androides actuando
@@True_NOON Si, yo sabe que Duo no es real. Pero, en la historia, estuvieron niños, y están adultos en el original.
Am I a little silly for thinking about GENUINELY getting this app to learn spanish as an english speaker instead of normal duolingo? Normal duolingo is nice and all, I have a good streak on it, but this seems more fun and joyous and whimsical
so true!! I feel like I would absorb the information better with this style of app, too.
Did you ever get it? Google says that it doesn’t have Spanish as an option, but it also says it does? 😭
I was wondering if it really did or not, because it says English in the App Store but idk 🤷
I like how she said she’s illiterate but she read all that
the illiterate community does not claim her
why is no one talking about this hdkahsk omg so funny
another amazing duolingo video twin!! the production for this app is pretty good! I hope Bea’s doing alright after her father was murdered in the woods by cocaine bear😢
I don't think Duo should have given Bea false hope for her father's life. It'll only hurt more when she realizes she was orphaned by Cocaine Bear 😞
R.I.P. Lester, gone too soon 🕊️🪦🐻
I was WAITING for a speedrun on this app, and from twin fettucine? What a blessing
I’m a reading teacher and most curriculums start with m and s (two continuous sounds) and then move on to a vowel usually a
Oh, okay!! Thanks for the insight!
Damn we started with the alphabet
time to make a whole video where you color every page
STOP I'LL ACTUALLY DO IT 😭
@@twinfettuccine That would be straight up torture for 3 hours 😭😭😭
@@EarthItself it would be coloring page speedrun hell 💀
@@twinfettuccine do it please
@@Gamer_Wolf19yea
I never expected the letter m to make me laugh as hard as it did here, great video
And here we all thought E was the furthest limit of comedy
yes like why would i challenge myself with something that tires my brain like learning klingon when i can just click on the words that start with the letter *m* in duolingo abc
so real and true and based
@@twinfettuccineikr
hurting your throat pronouncing H
duolingo has a app for everything
_everything?_
5:03 im a childcare worker/teacher and i will say that i see what you mean by kids learning vowels first but also u gotta remember that we dont *only* speak in vowels and u gotta learn some basic things before going into vowels and common letters being used repeatedly is a good way to do it! this app looks cute.
Ohhh, that's good to know!
this reading/listening comprehension test is very necessary in the internet era i fear
That was really cool. Seriously, I think all learning should be fun instead of just a nightmarish slog. I think kids would learn much better and enjoy learning if learning was actually, you know, enjoyable. i’m glad they’re coming out with more fun educational stuff.
I think they are starting with M(B, P) is because it is the first sound that a baby can make (except AAAAAA). They only need to attach and detach their lips, which is definitely easy. That's why most languages have M and P sounds for parent's nicknames.
Have you ever walked into the wrong class at uni and it's like maths 19?
That's how I feel right now, unsrublibed!

I like how the characters in the stories here are the younger version of the characters in original duolingi
The owl walked up to the Lemonade stand. . .
if the og duolingo was like this, i would be hooked
FR! I love how there's different types of progression beyond the regular linear lessons.
I think the father's body will float in the water.
This looks fun.
I'd totally love to do that nowadays, but back in elementary school...i would have looooved this.
Why is no one mentioning the montruous way the capital M was written at 4:53? Why 1 line up to down and then the rest of the letter? Just start at the bottom and follow the line!
that's literally how everyone writes an uppercase M
wait that’s making me angry
i miss fun content like this ur voice is so nice! subbed + i love the wholesomeness of this vid lol
Aw thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
When did this even exist?
always
Duolingo stories aren't gone!!!! I think if you go to the practice hub (the dumbbell icon?) they're still there!!! (although i am a beta tester so it may be different for you)
Do you know if I have to unlock them or something? 😳 The dumbbell says: "Read your first story! Stores will appear here as you complete them."
Lol I would try to Google it, but there's literally no information anywhere about this 😭
@@twinfettuccineAs you progress enough units you will eventually see stories, it’s built into the learning path and not in a separate tab. hope this helps! ( ◠‿◠ )
@@CloudyBunniesssYeah but not all languages have stories
@@lunaskystar I never said all languages had stories, but thanks for letting me know! Appreciate it! 😄👍
@@lunaskystarThe Japanese course had stories (and I know this because I read some of the stories prior to the update), only to be replaced with the "Read your first story! Stories will appear here as you complete them" and appear to be completely inaccessible. However, I can read my German stories both before and after the update. Did Duolingo decide to wipe clean the Stories section of some languages but not others?
I haven't watched the video yet, but I learned how to read Cyrillic in just 4 months thanks entirely to Duolingo, so I genuinely have high hopes for Duolingo ABC.
Omg if they had Duo ABC for other alphabets... 👀
samee
Same with Japanese letters (I think they were called kana? Katakana and hiragana)
I was pretty surprised. Like, it works! Somehow!
I'm pretty sure the reason they use phonics instead of "vowels first" is because toddlers and kindergarteners have that "baby speech impediment" so some letters they can pronounce with more relative ease and other letters are harder to sound out
I can’t believe how duolingo is slowly getting more underrated, probably from the memes!
I do love how some of the main characters are actually kids lol
5:19 OMG BOTW GORON CITY MUSIC AND YOU THOUGHT WE WOULDNT NOTICE
It looks so cute to see all the crew as kids
You know, if Duolingo ABC has other languages that you can become literate in, then it could also be used as a way to learn a language!
no but this looks more fun than the actual adults one I WANT COLORFUL CUTE CONCEPT with animal profiles and stories too
They didn't get rid of stories, they made it part of the curriculum
Cant wait till they release duolingo biology
Duolingo astronomy?
@@yglyglyaduo geography
Duo should make Chemistry from identifying elements to writing names of compounds, balancing a stoichiometric equation, identify carbon bond compounds etc..
@@Hyuga_Natsu00it would be targeted to older kids than
Your comment led me to imagine there being Duolingo Art for people who want to learn to illustrate in flat art styles…
I’m glad you had fun with this one! It looks cool and is designed well.
Wait, what’s an “M”? I’ve never seen that letter before in my life
>my

Oh no, I’ve been caught! I knew I should have proof read
THE APPLE WILL SINK AND THE MARBLE WILL FLOAT, I BET MY FIRST BORN SON
edit: god DAMN it
Where is your son. Hand him over 🫴
@@twinfettuccine I'll send him in the mail tomorrow.
I'm a teacher, so I can add some context from the science of teaching reading. When learning letters, consonants are easier than vowels because vowels make too many sounds. When learning to write letters, you usually group them by the type of strokes used, so M uses straight strokes, which is the easiest. Rhyming is also an important skill before learning to read. This is called phonological awareness, the awareness of the sounds of speech and how changing sounds changes the words. The better your phonological awareness, the easier it is to translate that to reading.
She already before she used the app
That’s how powerful the app is
I decided to download this app after I watched, and I don't even know what to say other than that the stories are kinda cool. Thanks twin fettuccine!
Honestly seems like a great app for kids
Duo has a voice?
DUO HAS A VOICE?!
Yes. And he sounds like Roger Craig Smith's voice for Sonic.
Duolingo devs after hearing “Duolingo RPG”:
**WRITE THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN!!11!1!!!1**
I dont know if you know, but in the practice hub, you access stories
you should speedrun the easiest language to ever learn: esperanto
edit: just to give context on how easy it is, spanish + french have nine sections on duolingo, meanwhile esperanto only has *four*
the history behind the language is really interesting as well, as it's a synthetic language, and was designed to be a universal second language
We must petition for the majestic nosehorn icon in Duolingo ABC
10:05 are we not gonna talk abt how Lily is smiling?
Mad monkeys was so life changing. I really felt the pain of the cow in the final page. That moo really made me feel the cows pain and annoyance
When are you going to make another language speedrun video? I'm really like your speedrun videos!!!
"i'm illiterate"
"i don't know how to read"
*proceeds to read*
love this duolingo content
First video that I see from you and am already subscribing
lmfao thank you!!
i love this video so much
man you’re funny
Ok. Please make this one a series.
2:06 relatable
duo is not the manager hes the MAN WHO WILL KIDNAP YOUR FAMILY
“I’m illiterate” reads entire website
They still have the stories!!
I read "Learning to read is hard" as "Learning is red" I think I need this app.
DID NO ONE NOTICE DUO WITH THE BUBBLES SAYING “MEW” 😭
OMG I LOVE THAT THE CHARACTERS ARE KID VERSIONS OF THERE ADULT VERSION❤❤❤❤❤
Duo has been the same age for years further reinforcing that Duo is a godlike entity that we should all fear.
abc for duo
OH ME GOO I
THINK THA APPLE WITH IMPLODE AND THE MARBLE WILL EXPLODE!!1!!1!1!1
Oh yeah, in case you didn't know, Duolingo Stories are part of the learning path now, not its own separate thing.
i was waiting for this
Hey can i ask if you when will you do the duo speedrunning a language again??😊
the time that bea said to duo to listen to this message my dad left( level 9) when the beep happened an ad popped up about a random website nice
1:44 Is "nosehorn" a word in English? It’s just that in Russian rhinoceros is LITERALLY called like that.
In the middle of this video i got a duolingo ad 💀
DUOS VOICE IS ACTUALLY MY DREAM THANKS-
Duolingo RPG would totally be cool!
Post more often pls!!
💀 lmfao
@@twinfettuccine smh i js love ur speedrun videos thats why
This app looks so fun, I am playing this for fun now
the "m" audio is now seared into my brain
"I don't know how to read."
*Reads the entire Duolingo ABC login page*
i cant wait for an another random language speedrun 💃
i downloaded all the duolingo apps once and I actually liked them but now I only have the math one LOL
10:47 That animation deserves an Oscar for being amazing.
I’m being sarcastic
Her dad leaves her out in the middle of no where and then ever so casually is like "Im going to get a picture of the monster! What was that? *dies*" ever so calmly. ITS DUO!!! HE FORGOT TO DO HIS DAILY SPANISH LESSON RUNNN
I got a duolingo ad for the first time ever, during this video
5:15 No, the words
Why, Fry, Gym, Fly, Spy, Sky, Myth and many more don’t have vowels.
8:30 The lungs...
Someone forgot their Spanish lessons
How come this app is 10 times better than the original one ??? 😂😂 i would genuinely use it for my german studying
apparently,if you go to the official duolingo abc channel & press on a video were they have puppet charcters,you will here duo's real voice
The reason that it stands «bokmål» at norwegian is because we have two written language in norway that is called «bokmål» and «nynorsk» that is some word diffrences
They still have stories!
Don't tell me duo be holding kindergartners hostage now?!
The fact I had a duolingo ad while watching this
Duo sounds pretty psychotic
I wonder he feeds the monster with the families of streakbreakers
I think I would learn another language way easier with an app formatted like this.
