I have a few freinds who have used it and really like it. I've thought about getting it myself.
If I don't learn how to better speak Spanish soon...... I may have no one to talk to around this state in the future

My wife uses the Rosetta Stone for Italian. I gotta say I wanna learn German and Russian.. Just cause I like How Pissed they always sound. I should learn some sort of Asian an Spanish tho. Just so I can ask directions in town....
P.S.
I guess I should have mentioned that the Rosetta Stone is simply fantastic way to learn a language.Last edited by Crimson Sin; 10-14-2008 at 09:01 AM. Reason: Post Script

I got 27 languages from the rosetta stone...I started the french cause its a little easy when you speak spanish. Very good. My brother started the russian and was actaully doing real good, he just hasnt had enough time after work to keep doing it. I say Rosetta stone is a way to go.

Yes it is easy to learn. Originally Posted by Spaz

If it is right an check mark shows if wrong an x. It moves on but you can repeat the session as many times as you want. If you want to hear it you click on the word and it pronounces it again. Then it moves on to just voice, then just text, then you have to buy a mic and you have to pronounce the word. Very interesting.
