    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.

    1 out of 5 stars Knock Off Item   November 24, 2008
    Nancy Devoto
    I was VERY disappointed in this item. I have contacted the seller to receive a full refund to no avail. I thought I was receiveing a original Rosetta Stone Italian learning CD but what I got was a knock off from Thailand. Needless to say I wound not recommend anyone ordering anything from this seller.

    Am enrolled in Italian 101 and find that the Rosetta Stone V 3 has helped me apply what I'm trying to learn in class. IMMERSION - the best way to learn a language as one absorbs the knowledge rather than just cramming information into the brain!
    My first language was Spanish and learned English by "Immersion" in school at a time when no one in class was able to communicate with me (no such thing as ESL in those days).

    Am planning to purchase Rosetta Stone in Spanish as a Christmas gift for my family as Spanish is very necessary in the working world of today.

    I bought Italian Level 1, 2 & 3 a few weeks ago. I have almost gotten through level 1 so far. I am satisfied with the product. It is easy to understand and navigate. The concepts are introduced in a logical manner. It is entertaining enough to encourage countinuing with the lessons. One negative point about Level 1 at least is that sometimes it moves a bit too slow and doesn't let me practice enough on things that I don't immediately get. It offers the answers to the questions too quickly without allowing for sufficient time to think through what the answer should be. Otherwise, I think this is a very good tool to get the basics of the language.

    Also, I saw in some other reviews that people were not sure whether it would work with Vista. I have Vista and haven't had any problems so far.

    1 out of 5 stars What A Disappointment...   June 16, 2008
    Alohajim (Hawaii, USA)
    3 out of 11 found this review helpful

    There are many other language programs, more effective and efficient than Rosetta Stone. We recommend books & audio CDs such as "15 Min Italian", "Instant Italian", "All-Audio Italian" by Living Language, and a BBC language education web site. I studied Italian for a month using these tools and were able to get around Italy fine by speaking Italian. Rosetta Stone is an extremely slow and boring program. We returned ours one day after we received it. What a disappointment.. If you have an average IQ, I recommend you avoid Rosetta Stone or Pimsler, and go for more challenging program.
