I need to start practicing French again but I'd rather die than give in to the Duolingo owl's demands,

@jasper see if your local library has any language stuff available!! some have the uhh rosetta stone ones, mine has this app called pronunciator, there might be free options besides the accursed owl..

@aflightybroad I forgot that libraries existed, whoops.
I might look into that though! Thank you!

(look into the libby and hoopla apps if u already have a library card, too)
