    Amazon.com Product Description
    Why is Rosetta Stone the world's No. 1 language-learning software? Because it works.

    Escape the endless tedium of translation, memorization, and grammar drills. Get the language you want, the skills you need and the success you deserve by learning a new language naturally--the same way you learned your first language.



    The complete immersion environment puts your native language-learning skills to work, eliminating your dependence on tedious translation and rote memorization.

    Images Intuition

    In Rosetta Stone you learn the meaning of new language from clear, real-life images.


    In this activity you learn colors.

    You advance using language you've learned and clues from new images. That's your intuition at work.


    Now that you know colors, you can easily grasp the meaning of the new words...

    Interactivity Instruction

    Throughout Rosetta Stone, you constantly interact with the program to confirm your intuition.


    ...and then check what you've learned.

    From beginning to end you build systematically toward your language-learning goals, for the most effective and enjoyable instruction anywhere.


    And finally, you get the fun of trying your new language in a real-life simulation. Speech recognition shows you exactly how you're doing.

    You learned your first language without translation.
    You learned your first language easily and naturally by connecting words to objects and events around you. With Rosetta Stone, learn a new language the same way: using native speakers and thousands of real-life images to help you think in the new language from the very beginning. Studies show that learning exclusively in the new language, without translation as a crutch, is crucial.

    The exclusive Dynamic Immersion method reinforces your natural language-learning skills with award-winning instructional technology. Identify your learning goals, then choose customized courses that take you there.

    The timeless immersion method, along with research-based techniques and new technologies, make Rosetta Stone the clear solution to your language-learning needs.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Product for Beginners!   August 8, 2008
    Kelly J. Rott (Austin, TX)

    My husband and I bought this set hoping to learn enough Spanish to 'get around' Barcelona during our vacation. I had several years of Spanish in high school, but my husband had none (he took two years of French).

    This program uses a nice combination of visual learning through pictures, spelling / grammar and pronunciation via the spoken word. Very effective. It seems to intuitively cycle difficult words / phrases back into your learning activities to give you more practice, which is great.

    You can set the degree of difficulty you want the program to grade your pronunciation on, depending on your level of comfort and past experience with the language. You can use your own computer's microphone, or the headset they provide. You can choose a 'male' or 'female' voice for recognition, to further customize your experience. The technology itself is smooth and easily navigable.

    As someone who has a 'little' background in Spanish, some of this Level 1 is a bit of a review, but learning it in a new way is making it less repetetive and dull. The lessons move quickly, as well. Would recommend for true beginners.



    4 out of 5 stars I did not use it because I wanted the complete 3 levels   January 18, 2008

    I assume it is a great product. I had never order with Amazon. Although I was quite satisfied with how speedy the product arrived.
    Also I was amazed at how easy it was to place the order, pricing and availablilty of the product. In the future I hope to use Amazon again.

    This product is sold as licensed software. Users will NOT be able to load it onto more than one computer. This aspect of the product is not clear from the blurbing on the Rosetta Stone website. It is a "single-user" product.
    Don't think that you can share this with friends, or that it is appropriate for a lending collection.
