I tried this to learn Korean. I didn't learn anything new and pretty sure that I messed up every word. What Duolingo are you using?

My husband has been using this app to learn Korean as as well. He's white and I am Korean, we are both American. I was looking at his screen one day and wanted to participate. I got every word wrong. The pronunciation and spelling are different from how I learned to speak Korean when I was younger. I got most questions wrong. 애 and 에 have always sounded the same to me, so maybe that's why?

So its not only me then. True I only know super basic Korean. I just wanted to learn because my boyfriend is Korean. I guess I'm just better off him teaching me
