I don't get speech exercises with latest version of Duolingo language app and Duolingo says it's because my browser does not support Web Speech API.

You should be able to enable it as follows :

Type in the address bar   about:config  (press Enter0 (promise to be carefull, if asked) Type in the search box :   media.webspeech and look for the preferences :

media.webspeech.recognition.enable and media.webspeech.synth.enable

And make sure both values are set to   true

This should be soon, however :

My answer to your question should have been : " Not yet, but as soon as Firefox does support it, you can enable it as follows :"
