Ask where the confusion is, not in a forum.
A general forum makes you re-explain your question before anyone can answer it. In Lingio a discussion hangs off the thing itself — this story, this lesson, this session, this card on the board — so the context is already there and the answer stays where the next person will hit the same wall.
Where a discussion can live
Reading a German news piece and a sentence will not parse? Ask underneath it, with the sentence right there.
A course lecture that did not land gets its questions attached to it, so the instructor answers once and everyone sees it.
The question you did not get to ask during the live session does not evaporate when the video room closes.
Cards on your classroom's shared board carry their own thread, so a correction can be argued with.
Threads are visible to the people who can see the thing they are attached to, and there are humans with the power to remove what does not belong.
A good answer to a good question is content. It stays attached to the material for the next cohort.
…, obwohl er müde war.
Why does the verb go last here? — asked on the sentence itself.
- Is this a forum?
- No, and deliberately so. There is no central board to browse. A discussion only exists attached to a piece of material — a story, a lesson, a session, a card — which is what makes the question answerable without three paragraphs of setup.
- Who can see what I post?
- The same people who can see the thing you posted it on. A comment on a classroom session is visible to that classroom; a comment on a public story is public.
- Can I ask in English?
- Yes. The point is to remove the obstacle, not to add one.
- Who answers?
- Other learners, and the instructor if the discussion is attached to their classroom or their course.
- Is it moderated?
- Yes. Discussions are moderated, and admins can remove content.
The sentence that broke you is a good question.
Ask it where it happened, and leave the answer for whoever hits it next.
