    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.

    3 out of 5 stars Good for vocabulary   August 12, 2008
    xxatti (Florida, USA)
    3 out of 5 found this review helpful

    Rosetta Stone is a good product for building vocabulary and even helping with pronunciation, but you won't get fluency from it. I don't think it's worth the price honestly. If you can get it for free, or if you have the money to spend on it, then it's a nice tool to add to your arsenal. But I wouldn't go out of my way to buy this product because it's just not enough by itself if you want to truly master a language. I think this is good for beginners, but once you reach the intermediate level you will need more than Rosetta Stone.

    If you can't afford the Rosetta Stone products, then stick to the cheaper programs while watching movies, and listening to music and you'll get a much greater exposure to the language than Rosetta Stone will give you.



    5 out of 5 stars Excellent Start, as Always   March 30, 2008

    I think Rosetta Stone is an excellent product, I have used the French and Russian and I find their method infinitely better than trying to memorize Russian words next to their meaning in your native tongue. I always thought I just couldn't learn languages but then I realized that the way I was attempting to learn was at fault and Rosetta Stone offers a great and logical alternative. Some people complain about Rosetta Stone not making you a master in the language it is teaching you but it is not supposed to. It gets you to where you can communicate well in that language and if you want to continue learning you can pick up a secondary school book of that language to get your grammar really squared away. I found Russian Rosetta Stone to be as good as the French, which is to say very good, fun and easy to use. After using my friend's I plan to buy it sometime next month. As for the first reviewer that is a completely ridiculous expectation of the software, and a completely ridiculous reason to give a product a poor rating and that review should be taken down in my opinion.

    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.
