i'm learning norwegian as norway is a country my dad really likes, we have roots there and embrace it. dad speaks a bit and i'm a casual learner who started learning basic words as a child along with icelandic. I'm studying with the book "Norsk: Nordmenn og Norge 1" and I also want an app to help.

I agree, I use Duolingo because it's good at making me comeback to learn. But I use it for vocabulary as I feel it is best for that. It was never very good at teaching grammar.

But I don't know why it is not good at teaching grammar. I don't think it's that difficult to replicate textbook exercises in a fun way. All I can think why they don't have good grammar exercises is that it's some dark pattern I don't recognise.
