      Yep. I’m on the edge about uploading a screenshot, but it would be safe to say it happened in the first hour of going into Intermediate English course and saying I’m 100% proficient in it. It occured to me in the third three lessons after that I believe. In this exact task it asked me to pronounce what the boy says and I cropped out my notifications bar and the lower part of the screen. It was in the app, so I couldn’t have done any edits on the site, only after that.

        It depends on the language, but generally, use anki decks, study grammar (you can often find free grammar resources online) and read/watch/listen to content in the target language. Having a course for the basics helps but often good options heavily depend on the language

        Eventually, you can start trying to communicate with other speakers, either online (via text chats/voice chats) or IRL if that’s possible

      Hmm… is it still a bomb after detention? 🤔

      A broken car is still a car but what if a car exploded in to pieces, would it still be referred to as a car or something like car pieces or fragments?

        I think it depends if the remaining pieces are at all identifiable as the original thing. If the blown up car still has four wheels and a motor, you’d probably call it a blown up car. If it’s been reduced to tiny fragments of metal and glass and rubber it’d just be debris.
