    Another tip…you can do a practice lesson where you regain hearts, but I use it just as a stand in for keeping my streak on days I don’t want to do lessons. Which is most days tbh. I need a Spanish speaking buddy to practice with 🥲

      ¡Claro que si! Lo mismo aqui.
      IMO the practice lessons are underrated and awesome. I mean, while yeah they nominally replenish your hearts, they also re-drill earlier stuff that might otherwise start to drift out of su cabeza.

      So much of locking in a language is about immersion & repetition, and it seems to me that stuff like Duo’s practice lessons genuinely help replicate immersion.

      Anyway, good luck on finding a practice buddy!
      One thing I’ve learned is to not try to hop between Spanish & French, since it’s a great way to get it all jumbled up. :S
