Bonsoir!
I have been working hard on my French skills this week and wanted to write about an amazing feature of the Duolingo app! I particularly LOVE this feature because it is designed to directly improve your conversational skills! The "Bots" feature allows you to have conversations! Here's a picture!

The conversations are automated by the app, however they are much more customizable than I expected! I have had conversations about pets, art, and a restaurant! The way this feature works is that the "person" you talk to sends a message. You then have the opportunity to respond. At any time you can click any of the words they sent and see the English translation. Additionally, if you do not know how to respond you can click "help me respond" and the app will offer some suggestions. This has helped me when I have understood only parts of the conversation. Duolingo is impressing me more and more each time I use it!
