When you learn on Duolingo, you earn points, and we call them experience points, or XP for short.
You can earn XP in various ways:
- Individual lessons = 10 XP (+possible bonus XP)
- Practice (accessible via the barbell icon via desktop web or Hearts tab in the iOS/Android app) = 10 XP
- Ramp Up (Available on iOS and Android app) = timed exercise where you can earn up to 40 XP
- Placement Test = 100 XP
- Duolingo Stories(available in limited languages)
- Duolingo Events (learn morehere)
Please note that as we continue to test new features, the experience may slightly differ from user to user. XP is subject to change. You may also unlock certain rewards like XP boost which doubles the amount of XP earned in a specific time.
You will also have the option to complete Hard lessons for double the amount of XP in these exercises (mobile app only).
