I am planning to go to india for studies (and maybe job ) but to do that i have to pass an exam . Don't get me wrong i am not excepting to ace the test by studying under a month ( while studying a whole lot of other subjects too ) I just want to (barely) pass . And i suppose living there would require hindi aswell because most people there won't . I tried duolingo aldready and it didn't do it for me for s couple of reasons:

They ( even i know this) spells a lot of letters wrong .
Seems too cash graby and justifying it as a game .
Overall i didn't like their way of teaching .
It seems like there isn't a person behind it you know too artificial .
And even though i selected the options for a complete noob they are expecting me to know lot of things .

Sorry if it turned into a rant . Thanks in advance for the answers . Also i didn't know where else to ask if there is an alternate more suitable sub just point me in that direction and i will move the post.ciao.

I've done duo lingo for a couple languages. I find it easier to read the language. But without actual conversation with another person. Makes it very hard to grasp the language. I've gotten a tip. That watching children shows that use the language are the best way to start. Dora for example.

Yeah i was just thinking about binging something in hindi . Though the last time i tried tje show was so good i had to complete it in english because i really enjoyed it . (The show was farzi and i highly recommend it.It's on amazon prime.) Maybe shouldn't have started with one of the best indian show.
