My brain keeps reading and spelling ψυχή as "psuchi" (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ Rewiring it slowly from Spanish to Greek is hard. Sad only Υ is used for capital letters, and even γ trolls my brain to think it's a "y".
Just keep re-wiring! It will work eventually. You could add Russian, where "y" is an "u" to make things funnier. Or Japanese, and suddenly the Greek letters will seem like a piece of cake. ;o) Nah, just kidding. If you concentrate on Greek, your brain's abilities will surprise you after a while!

On my phone (Galaxy s10) when I am typing there is an options button directly to the left of my spacebar, from there I am taken to a menu, theres a "languages and types" option that allows me to enable any language keyboard that I want.
After I do that I just swipe my keyboard and it changes to whatever language I have enabled.
What is the difference between ψ and ψι? both are the psee but I don't understand the difference.
What is the difference between ψ and ψι?
It's the same as h and aitch: the former is just the letter, the latter the whole name of the letter spelled out. In fact, you can find this answer in a previous comment in the discussion, made by JohnWycliffe.

No one sees submitted answers so it's impossible to say anything about them without you posting a screenshot.
Maybe instead of using this a translation for soul....use psychy...as it sounds similar to the english...that is the poi t of the exercise at this early stage, sounding out the unfamiliar letters/script
It's funny... I've got a reminder that I shouldn't forget the accents in the answer. But I've read that in (modern) greek the accents no longer are written (hope my English is not too bad...). So is that wrong, or is Doulingo a little bit behind ;-) ?!?
Sorry but that is incorrect. We most certainly do use the accents in Greek. Not only does the accent help you understand the correct pronunciation of all words but there are times when an incorrect or missing accent can change the meaning of a word or the whole sentence. On Duolingo, you will only get a reminder but in real life, you do need the accents.
