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.
 
 


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.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great language program
I bought Rosetta stone for my wife and kids. They're learning english, and even my 9 year-old daughter feels comfortable using it. The program has a few bugs or glitches, but nothing that prevents you from progressing. It's worth the price I paid. I recommend Rosetta Stone for anybody, regardless of age, that truelly wants to learn a new language. The immersion technique is great and complete.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It has been working for me
Well, it may seems ridiculous, but if you can understand what you read right now, it's because Rosetta Stone has been working for me. My mother tongue is french.

The level 1 wasn't really needed but it was get to refresh my old scholar knowledge. At the end of level 3, you'll know enough things to take the
next steps by yourself and get fluent.
I used it almost as a "crash course", something like 20 hours a week. That was really needed for my work and, probably, my survival ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Rosetta Stone V3 English
I received the product within a 10-day period. I was completely satisfied with it.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - a software note
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.




Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Rosetta Stone V3 English (U.S.) Level 1-2-3 personal Edition
During the sessions, several times a message appears indicating "there was a minor error" doing the process of learning too long and slow.
