4 out of 5 stars good for beginners   August 31, 2008
Rosetta stone is good for beginners. Starts off with basic words and pictures. Hopefully by the end there will be some phrases and sentences to use in everyday conversation. I already know some words so it's not too hard for me but my kids who are young already picked up some words.


4 out of 5 stars I loved it   April 9, 2008
I work with a lot of vietnamese people at my job. That is why I got this product and it has helped communicate better with them. It is a great and very helpful product. I love the way it teaches and makes learning the language easier.


5 out of 5 stars Very good for remembering the words   February 24, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I have been using this software for a while and it is my favourite tool to learn vietnamese. It really takes a lot longer than I would of thought, but this software really drills the words into your head in such a way that you remember a lot of it. Also, you read and hear the words so often that you just end up knowing them by heart, remembering how to say them, read them, etc. Unlike the flash cards systems though you don't get too bored out of your ming using it. I think it still makes sense to take an actual language class where you can practice conversation, but I really recommend this product. My kids use it sometimes for fun and it's pretty amazing how they walk around the house repeading the sentenses they learned in the sofware after, it does not seem that age is really a factor for using this. The only thing that does not work well in my experience is the voice recognition portion, it just doesn't do very well on my laptop because it does not recognise the sentences often, even though I know I didn't say it that bad. I tried it on desktop and I did not get better results, so I think this feature needs improvements; I just stopped using it. I would also like to be able to type the words using my keyboard in the writing part, instead of clicking on words. Regardless of this though I think the method is so nice that I give it 5 stars.


5 out of 5 stars Rosetta Stone - Vietnamese   December 11, 2007

Rosetta Stone language products are one of the most effective ways of learning
a language on your own. I really treasure my Vietnamese software. I'm getting long
in the tooth so learning a new language, especially a tonal one, is a real challenge.
Being able to hear the words over and over and practice sounding them out in the
privacy of my home makes learning this language much more feasible.
I'm saving to buy the Mandarin software next.
