Introducing our new look! Inspired by our mascot owl, Duo, we've updated Duolingo's wordmark and brand identity in partnership with @johnsonbanks for a more cohesive look and feel. What do you think?! creativereview.co.uk/duoling…

Seven years ago, Duolingo launched with 4 courses, 100,000 learners, and a mission to make education free and accessible to everyone. Back then, we didn't imagine teaching 90 courses to 300 million learners and counting. Merci, gracias, 谢谢 for all of your support! 💚

Reason #7 to learn a language in 2019: So you can learn how to say “build bridges, not walls” en español. #DuoMore

Dear @realDonaldTrump the US has repeatedly hurt these countries e.g. by overthrowing presidents at the request of American fruit companies, or by arming abusive military regimes in the name of “stopping communism.” The countries are in bad shape in part because of US influence.
.....Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador are doing nothing for the United States but taking our money. Word is that a new Caravan is forming in Honduras and they are doing nothing about it. We will be cutting off all aid to these 3 countries - taking advantage of U.S. for years!

I'm incredibly proud of what we have achieved at @duolingo: 2 years ago we had zero revenue, today we are the world's top grossing education app. This is proof that it's possible to provide access to free language education and build a sustainable business at the same time.
