A Feathered Partnership for the Ages
As LanguageSitter celebrates its 10th anniversary on 17 April 2023, we are thrilled to announce a revolutionary collaboration that will change the face of language education and wildlife conservation forever. In an ambitious partnership with Duolingo, the world-renowned language learning app, we aim to bridge the communication gap between humans and the animal kingdom.
Chirping the Linguistic Barrier
Our dedicated team of linguistic experts has been secretly working alongside Duolingo’s mascot, Duo the Owl, to develop a groundbreaking language learning program: Animalese 101. This new course is designed to teach humans the basics of communication with various species, including birds, mammals, and even insects!
Deana Jezeršek, Managing Director of LanguageSitter, commented on the linguistic aspect of this partnership: “We’ve put our extensive knowledge of morphosyntax and phonetics to work, creating a transformative course that incorporates animal semiotics and non-verbal cues. Animalese 101 is a testament to LanguageSitter’s commitment to advancing the field of linguistics.”
A Roaring Financial Success
Animalese 101 is a comprehensive curriculum, covering essential animal vocabulary, grammar, and syntax. Our innovative teaching methods will empower students to engage in meaningful conversations with their furry, feathered, and scaly friends.
Dimitrij Miklič, Partner at LanguageSitter, expressed his enthusiasm about the financial aspect of the collaboration: “With the launch of Animalese 101, we’re expecting a significant increase in enrollments, translating to substantial revenue growth. This partnership will allow us to further invest in our language programs and continue delivering world-class education.”
One Pawsome Future
Just imagine the possibilities! You could ask a squirrel where it buried its acorns or discuss the weather with a group of chatty parrots.
Mart D. Buh, Partner at LanguageSitter, shared his inspiring vision for the future: “This collaboration marks a new era in language education. As we break down the barriers between species, we pave the way for unprecedented cross-species understanding, empathy, and cooperation. Together, we’ll create a more harmonious world.”
Purring for Conservation
In honor of this groundbreaking partnership, LanguageSitter will also be donating a portion of the proceeds from every Animalese 101 course enrollment to support wildlife conservation efforts worldwide.
And, of course, we can’t conclude this announcement without wishing you a happy April Fools’ Day! Though we’re not really teaming up with Duolingo to teach animal languages, we continue to strive for excellence in human language education. Thank you for being a part of our incredible journey over the past 10 years!
