Learn a New Language

Duolingo allows users to learn a new language for free by having its users translate real-life documents uploaded to the Internet. Using game theory, Duolingo teaches you French, Spanish, Portugese, German, Italian and/or English. While the desktop application is great, we also recommend downloading the mobile app for iOS and Android to keep your language lessons on the go!
