[es7]

I’m on a 75 day streak learning Spanish and my wife is doing it too.

I took 2 years of Spanish in High School many years ago.

In those 75 days, I’ve gone from remembering basically no Spanish to being able to express and understand a surprising amount of day-to-day thoughts with her, at least as well as I could have in 2002.

We can express what we want, where we want to go, how we’re feeling, etc.

Duolingo isn’t perfect, but the gamification and social aspect keeps us practicing day-after-day and provides a natural jumping off point for using Spanish in our every day.
