Iโm very interested in your retention! Are you able to actually learn stuff?
I don't really get the question, do you mean like how do I memorize the words in a Duolingo lesson?
No like do you maintain any proficiency in the languages you speedrun
Yes, I sometimes use (virtual) flash cards to help me remember the words in the languages I do. I do a few flash cards, and add a few words to the deck after I do a lesson.
But do you actually gain any ability to read and write the language outside of duolingo
Yes. I do speedrunning mostly just for fun, and I do most of my Duolingo lessons normally.
