Just finished another unit that was so helpful with how thoughtfully new words were learned and then added on to what had just been learned. First I learned pieces of clothing, then colors, then about size words (big, small, long, short). Then I'm using all those words together to describe different clothing. I feel like the order you learn new things on this course is thought out very logically and I very much appreciate it. Keep up the good work!

你好！ I'm currently doing the Taiwanese Mandarin Course and really loving it so far. One thing I've noticed that I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, is regardless of the audio speed I have selected when doing a multiple choice question or a fill in the blank exercise, the audio plays at a very slow speed. I currently have my audio speed set to 100% and most of the time it plays sentences at a normal speed, but with these two types of questions when I click on any of the options the playback audio is extremely slow. I tried moving my audio to faster and slower than 100% to see if it affected things and it still played at the same slow speed every time.

Is there some way to fix this so that the playback audio on words for fill in the blank and multiple choice questions is the same speed as what is selected in preferences? How it currently is makes answering questions take much longer, as I like to hear the audio before moving to the next question.

Thank you!

Something I think has been done very well in the new Taiwanese Mandarin Course is using previous vocabulary to build sentences using new vocabulary.

I feel like in a lot of apps I've used you learn new vocabulary and then it's hardly used again in following lessons.

Teaching nationalities, then 女人，男人，女孩，男孩 , then teaching some common hobbies and then putting all those elements together is such a smart way to reinforce old vocabulary while learning new words, so thank you for putting some thought into that! Hopefully future lessons will follow the same pattern as well, keep up the good work!
