    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 a few basic nouns.

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


    Now that you know these nouns, you can easily grasp the meaning of the new verb...

    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.


    Pattern your speech after a native speaker. Our speech comparison feature 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.

    Rosetta Stone's exclusive Dynamic Immersion method reinforces your natural language-learning skills with award-winning instructional technology.

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

    Spell and write accurately.
    Language-specific keyboards and drag-and-drop tiles perfect your writing skills.

    Learn to communicate.
    You'll quickly combine words and phrases into complete sentences and dialogues.

    Retain what you learn.

    1 out of 5 stars A piece of junk, terrible customer service   August 14, 2008
    David M. Wicks
    The software did not work properly, Rosetta stone reps were less than helpful, plus it took for ever to get them on the phone


    4 out of 5 stars Rosetta rocks   July 29, 2008
    J. Blakeman (abroad in Korea)
    1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    This software is great: The interactive interface is engaging and not tiring, the format moves quickly to applicable material, and the varying techniques utilized encourage real learning. My only complaints are: Only formal speech it taught and immersion means translations are not provided. Would reccomend it.


    5 out of 5 stars The best way to learn a language.   April 5, 2008
    D. Norris (Conway, AR USA)
    3 out of 8 found this review helpful

    The only better way to learn a language is total immersion. But since this requires growing up with the language, or spending two or three months hearing and speaking nothing but the target language,it is not a practical solution for most of us. Rosetta stone is the next best thing. You learn the language in the same manner of a child growing up in it, or by total immersion only without the need to survive as an added incentive. With Rosetta Stone, you go as fast as you are able. For the first time learning another language is actually fun for me.


    2 out of 5 stars Undisclosed Installation Limitiation - Requires CD to Play   April 1, 2008
    Albion Zeglin (Washington, DC)
    16 out of 24 found this review helpful

    This software requires the CD-ROM to always be present to play. This does not work on my laptop when the CD-ROM drive is removed.

    This limitation was not listed anywhere that I found and was not apparent until after installation.

    The learning process was exactly the same a the Web version, except there is no tracking of progress or test results in this version.
