Duolingo: Ik heb een krant... but how do they know? (View large)
My Dutch friend Chris told me about a web site that teaches users a foreign language. Other than Chinese (my mother tongue) and English (my principal second language), I know a tiny bit of Dutch. So I said to myself, I'll learn a little bit more Dutch on-line. Duolingo (a Latinised word meaning bi-lingual) is free after all, so why not?
The other day, Duolingo wanted me translate "ik heb een krant", meaning "I have a newspaper".
Geeez, how does Duolingo know that I read the newspaper everyday???
