Duolingo is a language-learning platform with a website, an app, and a sociopathic owl mascot that threatens users to continue their courses.
From passive-aggressive notifications after a period of inactivity to visiting your bedroom while you’re asleep, it knows no limits.
As the owl became more and more confident in its wicked ways, some 300 million Duolingo users started creating memes to tell about the times it came hunting for them.
That’s right. It doesn't matter if they’re learning conjunctions or idioms; the owl is always watching and waiting. And if they haven’t completed their daily task by midnight, it’s a bloody nightmare.
Continue scrolling and enjoy some of the funniest Duolingo memes from Twitter, Instagram, and any other corner of the internet!

Mother-in-law negotiations
The Duolingo project was started in 2009 in Pittsburgh by Carnegie Mellon University professor Luis von Ahn (creator of reCAPTCHA) and his graduate student Severin Hacker. Initially, Luis Von Ahn wanted to create a program that would both teach its users a foreign language and have them translate simple phrases in documents, though the translation feature has since been removed.

The project was originally sponsored by Luis von Ahn's MacArthur fellowship and a National Science Foundation grant. Additional funding came from an investment Union Square Ventures and actor Ashton Kutcher's firm, A-Grade Investments.

Lost in Translation Mood
Duolingo started its private beta on November 30, 2011, and more than 300,000 users joined the waiting list. On June 19, 2012, Duolingo launched for the general public. Due to popular interest, it has received many investments including a $20 million Series C round of investment led by Kleiner Caufield & Byers and a $45 million Series D round of investment led by Google Capital. Currently, Duolingo employs 95 people, of whom many had been working for Google.

LOL! While Duolingo can be annoying, I know some Japanese because of it. And yes. I survived 3 weeks without Duolingo...My inbox was a wreck.

I did esperanto for a while, but almost did it for a year without missing a single lesson so I decided to stop myself. Now, I'm taking japanese in hs and so I'm practicing on duolingo too

I'm terrified and I'm probably fleeing to a remote island in South Africa because the Duolingo bird has terrorized my phone and family for the past 2 weeks that it has been installed. Goodbye all.

These are so true, but the creepiest one was when I got a sentence in German that translated to "I have six nephews and three nieces." Because I do. WTF Duolingo? That s**t's not even on my FB.

Run away and burn down everything you have duolingo on. It’s only a matter of time before he’s here.
