The next thing for DL is to learn how to spell proper British English...
I think they don't have to, they just need to accept answers spelled in British English. Majority here are using the American English.
I used 'colours' and it accepted it. (It told me that 'colors' was another translation. Nope, duo. That's another spelling, same translation ;)
I think you should have the option for British or American English and European or Latin American Spanish as well as European or Brazilian Portuguese before you start a course. In the UK where I live, it's colours not colors and grey not gray. Duolingo needs to learn British English.
On the 'grey not gray' thing, I have no distinction between the two. I believe they can be used interchangeably.
I personally don't like "colour," but I thought that it was always grey, not gray.
That's right, no one wants artificial colours made from petroleum byproducts...
New to duo lingo as I am, I love it - need the language to speak in Spain (Europe) as you would expect 'King' Spanish just as 'Queen's English' people get very sniffy about! So stop, just be thankful that the Spanish speaking will love you for trying and forgive mistakes that you make - pay for lessons if you are going to be so critical?
Why are people so picky about the language they get to learn for free in their own homes, please get out there and travel, meet other's in the country they own, out of your box, bedroom, living room - travel and live - just saying!
Whats the difference between natural colours and colours that aren't natural.
Btw. No one will give me a lingot so I will have to earn them on my own :(
Mas bien, "un idioma." Lenguaje refers more to figurative language, or literally speech. El lenguaje de sus poemas es muy complicado y me cuesta entenderlo. - The language (choice of words) in his poems is very complicated and it's difficult for me to understand it. Hope that helps!
"Naturally" is an adverb, while 'Natural' is an adjective. We need an adjective here. If you want the difference, I can tell you. : )
Why the hell isn't the Duolingo microphone picking up my voice?? My mic works just fine in other apps.
Please don't report this here, as there is nothing we in this chat forum can do about it.
You'd only use "naturales" if you're describing multiple colours, right?
