Duolingo is a website and phone application for learning languages. Chris joined the platform in October 2023.
Surprisingly, Chris has remained a dedicated user of Duolingo for months on end. On 4 December, Chris posted on Twitter that he had acquired the rank of Galactic Legend.[1] On 29 January 2024, he hit a 100-day learning streak.[2]
Even more surprisingly, Chris has used the platform almost exclusively to study Finnish, which is regarded as a very difficult language for native English speakers to learn and which is spoken by fewer than 6 million people, the vast majority of whom live in Finland. Moreover, Chris has no known Finnish friends or acquaintances, and he has never expressed an interest in Finland or its culture. One popular theory is that his mysterious gal pal Flutter, who was first seen in public with Chris around the time he joined Duolingo, is Finnish or speaks the language.
