Add a Georgian language course to Duolingo

The Issue

Have you ever watched a Trio Mandili video on Youtube, spellbound by their beautiful voices but not understood a word they say? Have you ever wanted to know more about the ბორჯომი bottled spring water you drink and the glorious country it is sourced from? So many questions yet next to no answers (yet)! This is the time to bring power back to the people and to let our voices be heard. We all want one thing, and that is for Duolingo to add a Georgian language course to its app! In order for this to work, we need your help! Follow the discussion forum on Duolingo and help upvote the top comments to bring attention to the cause.

Along with countless other Trio Mandili subscribers, we would love to finally understand their songs for the first time and write comments about how touching the lyrics are. Our dreams are not out of reach as I am sure that at least some of the subscribers are bilingual and fluent in both English and Georgian. If you are indeed bilingual, the call to action is now! Please apply here: https://incubator.duolingo.com/apply to contribute to a Georgian language course on the Duolingo app incubator. 

If you are not yet fluent in Georgian but would still like to support the cause, follow the Duolingo discussion, vote and please sign this petition. Share it with your friends and family and spread the word! How great would it be to finally visit Georgia and be able to navigate and communicate with ease? Lets make this dream come true and get the ball rolling!
