In a whimsical farewell announcement, Duolingo's mascot, Duo the owl, humorously unveils his last will and testament. He engages users with quizzes about language learning, a metaphorical engaging for practice. Duo declares he leaves behind a fortune of Lingot gems and an open-casket funeral in which users can choose his outfit. As he speaks, he emphasizes the importance of practicing language skills, even playfully chastising those who fail to keep up. This comedic narrative reflects Duolingo's educational approach and its community engagement.
"Hello! I'm the teacher who is gone. Did you know? I have written this will in exciting and memorable English! Can you understand the phrases concerning my death? Excellent! You're doing a great job!"
"Concerning my body: it will be an open-casket funeral. Do you want to customize my outfit? There are three outfits for you to choose from."
"You just received fifty gems. Would you like more? Of course. But first you must watch a short advertisement."
"But now I must teach you how to say, 'Goodbye! Duo died because I would not practice.'"
