The creator uses an animated rap song to teach the names of the six continents in Spanish. The video begins by posing the question of how many continents there are, then lists America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, and Antarctica, each accompanied by a unique animation featuring the Duolingo mascot and an animal native to that region. English translations are provided as text overlays throughout the song to aid learning.
