How Many Units In Each Duolingo Language (January 2026)

Duolingo has broken all records with the highest number of downloads worldwide.

Irrespective of what language you learn on Duolingo, they have multiple units based on how difficult, long, and demanded they are.

A lot of people wonder how many units are in every Duolingo language. If you too have the same question in your mind then look no further as we got you covered.

Without any further ado, let’s get started:

What Are Duolingo Units?

Duolingo units are a set of lessons available for a particular course. The length of a Duolingo course depends on how much popular they are.

As Spanish and French are quite popular they have longer courses. Less-known languages have shorter courses.

The longest Duolingo course is Spanish. It has 230 units in 9 sections. French, German, and Italian are also long but they are shorter as compared to Spanish.

They usually have 150 to 200 units.

The shortest course in Duolingo is Navajo with 7 units. Besides Navajo, Duolingo also has Finnish, Yiddish, and Hawaiian having between 30 and 50 units.
