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.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!   June 27, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I'm mainly writing this to give an alternative to some of the other reviews I've read. First, I'm 60 years old, and using an Imac and a PowerBook g4.

I had no trouble installing this on either machine. I have a simple set-up, just a home network, so maybe that's why, but it was no trouble.

It is not a "mac-like" interface, but it's also no trouble to use. I understood it from the get-go. I want to emphasize that I installed--and use it--on both computers.

The software itself is both fun to use, easy to "get" and in depth so far as the language is concerned. If you just do it in order, you'll end up being able to read, speak and write Spanish in a grammatically correct fashion. Even though I'm 60, I have zero trouble remembering and understanding things. Of course, I have it on two computers, so I do a lesson on my Imac at night before bed, then do the same lesson again the next day on my PowerBook. I also bought the audio disks. I put them on my Ipod and use them to review each lesson once during the day. I can do all this because each lesson only takes a few minutes.

I plan to start reading one of the Spanish newspapers in our area, even if I don't get most of it. I try out my skills every time I go to a Mexican restaurant. They are very nice about helping me.

This is excellent software. Don't let reviews scare you off. You'll learn from it, and you'll enjoy doing it.



4 out of 5 stars Very Simple to Use   June 17, 2008
Rosetta Stone is very simple to use. However having a Spanish book, or obviously a native speaker to supplement the software would make it much more effective. This is because of being tossed directly into the language without a clear translation leaves the door open for some confusion. Overall a great interactive product that is a strong foundation to start learning a new langauge.

You cannot legally sell this software when you are done with it. They threatened to sue me when I did - they said I had not bought the software, but a license for the software and it was nontransferrable - that I did not have the right to even GIVE it away.


5 out of 5 stars Ingenius Language learning method   June 3, 2008

I wholeheartedly endorse Rosetta Stone. I have learned more in a month with this program than I did in years of Spanish classes. The total immersion method makes it easy and fun!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent product to begin on the long road of learning a new language.   May 15, 2008

I have really been trying hard to learn Spanish over the past 5 years. After purchasing Rosetta Stone, I feel like I've learned more in the last few weeks than in those last 5 years I have been studying. The layout and the structure of the way they teach you helps you retain the vocabulary (which some say is most important!) and Spanish language structure.

If anyone is looking to learn a new language I would highly reccomend this product!
