Here everybody, a course for Irish is coming to duolingo- the best website for actually learning a language. Bring that moment closer by sharing this notice and upping the comments.

It was as if Luis read my mind (or maybe my comment, I'm not sure) when he said "and maybe even Elvish". I really want Sindarin or Quenya to happen.

On a side note, this has got to be the weirdest discussion title I've seen on here.

[snowyee]

Really, how so? :)

[TheGandalf]

I don't think I'd ever expect to hear about "incubator countdowns" on a language-learning site.

[richardchyan]

I definitely want to learn Japanese!

[WardQ]

klingon, for sure

Incubator Countdown :)

I think this is wonderful and I'm really looking forward to it! I do wonder about one little thing though: will language teachers be able to promote their services using it? I worry that the Duolingo time will consider that a kind of spam, but that's it's something that would really aid both contributors and language learners.

Now I'm not a language instructor myself, but as a student I can say that my Swiss-German teacher will probably be more motivated to contribute if it can help build awareness of her language school.
