XP in Duolingo stands for Experience Points and they are rewarded whenever a user completes a lesson or story. Your XP in Duolingo determines your language level (which you can find here!) and also can help you advance in the Duolingo Leagues.
How to Get XP in Duolingo
In order to get XP in Duolingo, you have to complete a lesson within a language course. Each lesson usually will earn you 10 XP.

You can also complete stories if your language course on Duolingo has stories available. For each story you complete, you can earn 14 XP. You will earn less XP if you get any questions wrong while doing the story.
I seriously would not be able to learn languages without italki (I’m taking 3 classes per week right now) try out a class and you’ll thank me later. They’re usually $9 or less!


Another way to get XP is to restore broken skills for 10 XP. You have to first get all of the crowns in that skill and turn it gold in order for you to be able to restore it.

How to Find Out How Many XP You Have
Go to your profile on the Duolingo app (which is the head icon in the middle) and you will be able to see the total amount of XP that you have earned. This number is the amount of XP you have between ALL of the courses that you have done on Duolingo.
So in my case, this adds up English to Spanish, Italian, and French as well as my courses from Spanish to Italian and French, etc.

If you want to see how much XP you have in just ONE course, you will need to use the Duome website. To do that, you will need to type duome.eu/YOURUSERNAME in Duolingo.
For example, mine is https://duome.eu/dayna255732. From there, you can see all the stats of the course that you are currently on in Duolingo.

To see another language, just change your language course in the app and then refresh the Duome webpage and it will show the stats for that language instead.
