- Whilst I sourced some of these myself, a big ol thanks for the help from Twitter @DuolingoStrange for the rest. I don't know how that Twitter user's sanity is robust enough to look through these crazy phrases every goddamn day, good luck to em.
Norwegian has a bunch of good ones that form a story "My wife hates me", " I am getting divorced", "She is taking the kids" and " I am eating bread and crying on the floor"
Is duolingo okay? We're here to talk if it needs us.

"Love is blind, but the neighbors ain't" must be the greatest sentence ever written by an human being
I laughed so hard at this one 😂
This one killed me. Honestly my new favorite saying (excluding the neighbors part)
But is it really written by a human being though...??? 👀

When I learned Ancient Greek, our textbook had sentences like "We threw the babbling old man off the cliff" and "Some children do not deserve to live".
''Some children do not deserve to live'' sounds like a *VERY* spartan thing to say, and so is throwing someone off a cliff. Duolingo knows too much...
@@NickAndriadze Yeeeeeep haha a lot of the practice sentences were directly from classical texts. Just hilarious to see them in a textbook, especially because my teacher was big on group practice. We threatened/vowed to kill one our classmates on a daily basis.

"Love is blind, but the neighbors ain't." sounds like a great start for several horror ideas
update: i forgot how relationships work. either way it's a horror story for the neighbors.
no, it just sounds like a sarcastic sentence to indicate that your neighbours are very nosey.
Or an indication that maybe you should close your windows before continuing
IT DOES
Sounds like kinky voyeurism to me
It's actually a commonly used proverb in spanish.

1:59 Love is blind, but the neighbour ain't (El amor es ciego, pero el vecino no) is an actual proverbial phrase in spanish. It means that the lovers may not see the toxic traits or red flags that their couples may have because they are in love, but people outside the relationship can see them more objectively because their judgement is not affected by the feeling of afection, thus why it is a good idea to look for advice from friends or people outside of the relationship
and to close your blinds/curtains when you’re doing it
but that’s good to know, thanks
I was once having a bad day and figured some Duolingo might cheer me up. The sentences I then had to learn: "You're a complete disappointment", "You will fail" and "You are annoying and unlikable". Needless to say, it did the opposite of improving my mood
Lol
Bruh
Trolling
I can only assume the algorithm picked up on that somehow and reacted accordingly
Are you sure you didn't pick duolingo for Asian parents
The silly and weird sentences are very deliberate. They are something you are extremely unlikely to hear out in the wild so it trains you to listen to each word and actually comprehend what is being said rather than just guessing the sentence based on what it's most likely to be saying.

I got a weird duolingo sentence,
“The horses are cooking the farmers”
For real though, Duolingo actually DOES make me think about what a sentence really means. It's easy to lapse into "auto mode" when translating sentences like "where is the bathroom?" and "do you want dinner?" but it's hard to do that with a sentence like "the boy eats 23 beetles."
specifically 23 beetles? no more and no less?

Duolingo using strange sentences like these to help you remember, sort of like how you remember weirder dreams but not basic ones. It’s a good strategy that my own Spanish teacher uses
i’ve been doing french for almost a year and have a folder for funny duolingo phrases or milestones (50, 100, 300 days etc…)
some of my favorite sentences are:
“they are italian and they don’t like pizza!”
“your buying ONE shoe?”
“there is a horse in your apartment”
“the dessert, that’s for me, the check, that’s for you”
“is that a dog? no it’s a little cow”
“he lives in a tree and his neighbor is an owl”
"love is blind, but the neighbours ain't"

fun fact: all duolingo sentences are made by language experts, and they make the sentences weird on purpose for their own amusement. I think it’s also to help users learn more :D
It makes sense. We're more likely to remember "My horse is a communist" than "Brian is in the kitchen".
100%. Once I learned how to say "The ___ is mine" in Irish I looked up how to say "ring" so I could quote Frodo at the end of Return of the King
So I remember how to say it but not how to spell it, which is the problem with Irish lol
It could also be so we don't guess it instead of actually learning.
Or this one: "This is Ukraine, Russia is over there".... Well
@@KrabRaged46 That was my guess.

”Five ants is more than five elephants” is actually a swedish kids show so that one kinda makes sense!
I tried to learn Welsh on Duolingo. Weird phrases aside my vocabulary increased and it was quite fun... then it was impossible to work out why the sentences were constructed like they were and it was just remembering from last time I'd done that lesson, without understanding why.
@JustAnEggOkdefinitely not. It's nice to get a basis but sometimes you actually NEED explanations to understand stuff.
@JustAnEggOk hmm not to be disrespectful, but a fluent speaker of English would know the difference between "speech" and "speak"
Questionable sentences I’ve gotten from the Korean course: “A man is not food.” “I am slow.” “Duo is a police officer.” “There is no bed in the park.” “The men fall down together at the library.” “Movies are meaningless.” “Books are meaningless.” “Is an orange a vegetable?” “Is coffee a fruit?” “He buys a fox.” “The cat eats a banana.” “The doctor lies in the room.” “The cat is going to school.” "Germans and Russians are learning the Korean alphabet together."
A few my brother has gotten from the Norwegian course: “My husband doesn’t eat children.” “Bears have bicycles.” “Are they eating spiders?” “I don’t know who I am.”

im learning german and one day i was struck by the phrase ''my cats name is schrÖdinger'' if i dont decide on an answer it is simultaneously a great cat name and a bad cat name
Once on Duolingo, I got a “choose the right response” which was: “My brother is really smart.” The answer choices were either: “Is he single?” or “Where is the nearest hospital?”. Apparently the right answer was to ask whether he was single. Strange conversations the Duolingo staff must have…
Intelligence is an attractive trait
Nah, it's the correct answer justbecause the other one is completely unrelated.
So it's the least incorrect answer.
I studied linguistics and honestly, that's EXACTLY the conversation I would expect ladies who graduated with that degree and now work at Duolingo to have
But... Was he single?

Here are some bizarre sentences that Duolingo assigned to me throughout my odyssey in the Korean course:
- “The snake deceives her”
- “I go to Korea every day”
- “Korean is hard. Let's learn English!”
- “I make fun of myself”
- “The student lies down on the desk”
- “Why am I smart?”
- “Yes, people are bad”
My sister sent me a screenshot of the "Yes, people are bad" one before, which was pretty funny
"Mister, why are you fat?"
"Hey, do you want to die?"

When I was attempting to learn Spanish it would throw such interestring phrases my way, like "I am a horse" and "I have a knife". Clearly very useful phrases to know, and I suppose their strangeness is what makes them stick in the mind so it works BECAUSE it's weird.

Also, As someone learning german, the “Are you ready to learn Die?” i cannot tell you enough how many times i get that.
I love this so much. I am a professional online language teacher and for years my learners asked me if I liked Duolingo. Finally I caved and tried it so at least I can say, This is not going to teach you to *converse* but you may learn to speak a little and definitely read and understand some spoken language. And then people gripe about these demented phrases because they are not practical. But if you understand the underlying mechanics and grammar, you can cobble together a lot.
In Ukrainian, when you learn the inevitable animals (cat, dog, cow, pig, horse, mouse, bird), they throw in elephant for some reason.
Dutch Duolingo is quite paranoid, giving a feeling of being watched and asking how many locks are enough.
...is Duolingo making the weird sentences less common? I really do not see a lot of interesting ones these days. Then again, I often maintain my streak just with a music lesson.
Thank you for this fantastic video. It has made me chortle, chuckle, and wheeze-laugh a bit.

I completed the entire Latin tree on Duolingo, and boy did I encounter a lot of weird parrot sentences! My favorites were "The parrot is burning down the bridge," and "My parrot is either half-asleep or stupid." I didn't even think the ancient Romans had parrots.
Oh, yes - in fact the name for the parrot family (Psittacine) actually comes from the Ancient Greeks. Romans got them from India, Africa... kept both as pets and as a culinary delicacy. They also traded them through much of Europe.

Honestly, the Latin ones in this video are so tame considering how some sentences I’ve encountered include “I destroy those parrots with fire”, “The young man wants to descend from the altar” and “by chance the gods destroy the humans” (the latter of which was accompanied by a very happy-looking Duo). Honourable mention to “Marcus is half-asleep or stupid”.
All of these (except with different birds for parrots) sound like very real sentences one might find when reading the classics.
That's pretty tame and normal for Latin. When I was learning Latin in high school the first complex sentence we learned how to translate was "The horse killed the farmer with arms." or "Equis argricolam cum armis necat." I was able to say "I will kill the gods" before "hello my name is" when learning Latin because those words were more useful.
All of this sounds like just a normal day in ancient Rome

The "five ants is more than four elephants" is actually a very useful sentence when learning Swedish, as it's a kids' tv-show that permeates all of Swedish culture since it aired decades ago.
Permeated. I think that it would be hard to find anyone under 20 who knows what it is. I am a tad bit older than that but I hated it as a kid as it seemed like a show for adults who look down on kids (metaphorically speaking, and yes I fully grasped metaphors as 5 yrs old).
@@savagesarethebest7251 What are you talking about? The O song goes fucking HARD
@@savagesarethebest7251 You know that "Swedish culture" also encompasses people over the age of 20, right? Also you don't have to brag about your grasp of metaphors in order to understand the feeling of being condescended, but you have to be pretty damn sensitive to feel like that show is condescending.
@@viljamtheninja I know that Swedish culture encompasses all ages. I don't know if I as a 5 yrs old were to sensitive.. 🤔
Holy shit yeah I remember that. I still got one of those computer discs with the mini games.
I can’t wait until I get advanced enough on Duolingo to get these types of sentences. Right now I’m at “Tú eres una mujer” and “yo como manzanas” in my Spanish lessons 💀
yo como mujeres
@@Jummmpy I hope I get that at some point :)
Tú eres una manzana
If you dont know Spanish,
Tú eres una mujer - You are a woman
Yo como manzanas - I eat apples
NO TIENES MUJERES???
"what do we say to the god of death?"
"thank youuu"
The fact that i instantly got a duolingo ad after this lmaoo
Love the Swedish ones. There’s also
“He doesn’t eat turtles”
“Is your father still alive?”
“The moose is not real”
“My brother is in prison”
“They will call me if she dies during the night”.
I do Latin and it frequently makes me say, “You are the father” and “You are not the father”
Like bro who tf is getting people pregnant in my Duolingo lessons
I suspect that the "Five ants is more than four elephants" one is swedish as well since it's the name of a swedish television show.
The show was about teaching children linguistics/numerical linguistics, hence the weird titel.
@@Galatheam Came to the comments to see if anyone was saying that!
In Swedish I once got “Your wife is sitting on a moose” It also kept asking where the wolf was…
im doing greek and it saidd "the pink avacado"
Strange phrases Duolingo taught me:
-"I want the feet juice"
-"She's not a shredder"
-"He's not okay, his ear is missing"
-"Move out of the way or i'll kick you"
And my favourite:
-*"Don't eat my family please"*
I WANT FET JUICE? 💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Imanantizoophile YES 😀
💀
"He's not okay, his ear is missing" Van Gogh?
THE WAY I GOT A DUOLINGO AD-
“Salty salt” reminds me of-INANIMATE INSANITY
Some phrases I’ve come across learning German on Duolingo:
“You are a mouse”
“Here is an egg”
“Julia is an owl”
“Is the coffee delicious?”
“Good morning, coffee!”
“The mouse comes from New York”
“Does the dog always swim?”
“The cat never plays the piano”
Edit: I’ve just started learning Irish, and 90% of the sentences are some variation of “It’s windy today”
But more importantly, did u get them right?
Pls tell me u did
@@Time_Lord_in_a_Tardis yes I got them right
@@crystalandmax YEAHHHHH!! 🤣✨🥳
Is it really so windy there that 90% of sentences are commenting on the wind?
One time, my brother told me to say “silk” five times, and then asked “what do cows drink”. I said “milk”.
Then i opened duolingo about 10 minutes later, and the first question i got was “evet, inekler sütü içer” which translates to “yes, cows drink milk” in turkish.
Yeah, the little ones do.
I know Turkish and it's the most boring language EVER. And I memorized the whole thing now ._.
@@nothingness4301 turkish is really good but no wacky spelling
Spoopy
I am from turkey
