How to type Hebrew and other foreign languages in Duolingo when you have only an English keyboard

 How do you fill in the blanks in Duolingo when it tells you to type in Hebrew, or another language you are learning, and you don't have that keyboard. 

First, try to copy the word.  I used to try this without success. When you move your mouse down away from the English to over the Hebrew pop up the pop up vanishes. The trick is to move the mouse slowly.  Then you can past the word, the next time you are asked to do that exercise again.paste the word, 

Sometimes you copy one word, but the next question asks you for two, such as red dress, when you have copied only the word red. The solution for this is to click on make easier. That asks you for one word instead of two making up the sentence.

A few words of Spanish

Today a friend who is a past president of a Toastmasters International speakers' club wrote to me about learning languages.

¿Hola Angela, como es tú español? I use Duolingo every day but I found trying to study 3 or 4 at the same time to be quite confusing! I am also looking forward to trying Greek but for a real challenge you should try Hungarian!

In case you haven't worked it out, he asked, 'Hello, Angela, how is your Spanish?"

I replied, "Thank you. (Alas that is all.) I still need to use Google translate. Copy and paste."

The translation was done by Google. I translated back into English and Google told me todavia is Spanish for however.
