Abstract

Among the most successful language self-teaching apps, Duolingo stands out due to its ease of access and simplicity of use.

Its pros and cons will be highlighted, taking into specific examination the Norwegian language course. In conclusion, the use of the app as a support for a structured language course will be outlined.
