    Nope. When I first came to Korea and starting learning the language, I said, 'blahblahblah, hdhfodhgdhflshs to a taxi driver,' and he actually understood me and went where I needed to go. It told me that if I just memorized 3 things/day, I'll be able to say 1000 things after one year. Just like your pump feeling.

    There's something to it, but it would be a fair analogy if you were comparing Duolingo to your first times going to gym. But then it wouldn't be as compelling probably :)
    On the other hand it is such a satisfying feeling when you, completely unexpectedly to yourself, hold a decent conversation in a foreign language for the first time. You then have a glimpse of what you will be in a x-months time.
