Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Rosetta Stone Personal Edition contains everything you need to give the voice inside of you a new language. The method used recreates the natural way you learned your first language, revealing skills that you already have. This approach has won numerous awards, and has been adopted by countless organizations, schools and millions of users around the world. Join the language revolution today. Only with Rosetta Stone.

The comprehensive language-learning solution that fits your life.

Learn Naturally
Learn your next language the same way you learned your first language. Dynamic Immersion empowers you to see, hear and comprehend without translating or memorizing. You already have this ability. Rosetta Stone simply unlocks it.

Engage Interactively
Get feedback to move forward. You learn best by doing, and you'll apply what you've learned to get to the next step. Rosetta Stone adapts to your individual needs and skills, because you drive the program with your progress.

Speak Confidently
Start speaking immediately. From the very first lesson, you'll speak. You'll begin with essential basics, which form the building blocks of the language. Soon you'll create new sentences on your own, using words you've learned.

Have Fun
Best of all, Rosetta Stone is addictive. With every entertaining activity, you'll feel success. You'll want to use Rosetta Stone to have that next moment, that next breakthrough. So you'll keep using it, and you'll learn more!

That's language-learning success.
That's Rosetta Stone.

No translation or memorization required.

The most effective way to learn a new language is to be surrounded by it. When you were an infant, your parents taught you this way, by intuitively associating words with images. That's the ultimate language lab, but most language-learning programs completely ignore this.

Think about all of the ways you've tried to learn a language: classes at school, tapes and cassettes, even software that uses your native language as a base for your next one. What do they all have in common? Translation and memorization.

Instead of taking a "direct flight" from your brain to your new language, translation and memorization connects you to your old language. You always have to "fly" from your brain, to your native tongue ... and then translate what you've memorized to communicate.

That might work for a few words, but what happens when you get to a sentence or phrase? When you have to change tenses? You're going to make a lot of "connecting flights." That's why those other methods are so frustrating ... and why they fail.

Enter Dynamic Immersion.
This method encourages you to think like a baby. You'll pair words with vivid, real-life images and make connections between things you know and the new language. Soon, you'll be thinking in a new language, stringing words together into phrases that you create.

Innovative technology.
Rosetta Stone places this Dynamic Immersion method at the core of a suite of software that works with you to develop your skills. The simple, intuitive interface helps to keep you engaged in the solution, while advanced speech recognition technology makes certain that you're speaking correctly and accurately. Best of all, Rosetta Stone never leaves you behind. You'll only move forward when you're ready, when you've become comfortable and confident.

Communicate and connect with the world: Level 1, 2 & 3 Set.
Rosetta Stone Level 1, 2 & 3 Set will take you on a journey from the basics to a whole new level of sophistication. You'll build a foundation of fundamental vocabulary and essential language structure. You'll quickly gain the confidence to engage in social interactions. Say "hello" and "goodbye," arrange travel, order food, go shopping and more! From there, you'll share your ideas and opinions, express feelings and talk about your life, your interests and more. You'll discover a voice. In a new language.

Audio Companion
With Audio Companion, you'll enhance the Rosetta Stone experience wherever you go. You'll learn new skills on the computer, and then reinforce what you've learned with Audio Companion. Simply play the CDs on a stereo or download them to a MP3 Player. Each Audio Companion activity corresponds to a lesson in the Rosetta Stone software, so you can turn your travel time into productive language-learning time.

Inside the box, you'll find:

  • Version 3 Personal Edition CD-ROM software for Levels 1, 2 & 3 (Windows/Mac)
  • Headset microphone
  • User's guide
  • Audio Companion, a multiple-CD set to play or download to your MP3 player

3.0 out of 5 stars Good learning tool but SW is buggy and upgrades a pain, 23 Mar 2010
By Jon Gibson Mcgill (Kerava, Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Rosetta Stone Version 3: German Level 1, 2 and 3 Set with Audio Companion (Mac/PC CD) (CD-ROM)
I have 3 Rosetta Stone's that I bought this year. First Arabic, then German, and then finally Swedish. The basic idea is that you should learn via "dynamic immersion", meaning that you don't get any hints from somebody speaking english. You're supposed to figure out the entire vocabulary just from context and usage together with pictures and audio cues. This is a very good method and I wholeheartedly endorse it.

The problem is in the SW itself. It's buggy... very often the startup fails, or the program gets stuck, the audio is missing, or the voice recognition doesn't work at all. For a 500 Euro piece of software, this is totally unacceptable. Then to top it off, I've been struggling with the fact that they only allow 2 installations/activations of the SW, and when you upgrade the SW with the latest version, you have just lost one of your activations. Unless you have saved your receipts and are willing to struggle with online technical support emails back and forth, then you will quickly get frustrated by this... all in the name of a simple bug fix version upgrade. The bug fix version also doesn't fix all the bugs.

Finally,I am going to have to deal with the nightmare of going through this whole technical support process again because my desktop computer where my activated SW was located just died this weekend thanks to a motherboard/cpu short-circuit. Since I cannot reuse the Harddrive on another computer I own. I have to try and get a special computer where this old harddrive will still work, otherwise I have to again try and get new activation keys.

And all I wanna do is study the language... not mess around with computer glitches.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best way to learn German without a real person, 23 Dec 2009
By Mr. C. Varney (Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Rosetta Stone Version 3: German Level 1, 2 and 3 Set with Audio Companion (Mac/PC CD) (CD-ROM)
I have a long way to go but so far this software is proving to be ideal for me. I can do as much, or little, when time permits, with this interactive programme, and dip in and out of the various levels as I wish. It uses the natural speech learning of a young person with visual aides and emphasises the subtle differences with syllables. Before Rosetta Stone I've tried many other software packages, all much cheaper, but then they are also limited. It seems if you want the best way to learn a language (using a PC/laptop, not a real person) then Rosetta Stone seems the best way.
