The Fastest, Best Way to Learn a Language — Without Arduous Memorization, Tedious Translation or Odious Conjugation.
I took 5 years of German, and it was never easy. Believe it or not, I still have nightmares trying to recite Goethe’s “Der Erlkonig” as part of my final exam! Now there’s a better way to learn a language,
using your own computer, in the privacy of your own home, at your own pace.
Child-Like — Children learn their first language easily and enthusiastically — without even thinking
about it — because they’re surrounded by it. Rosetta Stone uses the Dynamic Immersion™ Method, and the interactive power of the computer to teach you a new language in much the same way. With all instruction taught only in the new language, there’s never any translating required. Instead, thousands of real-life images, written text, and voices of native speakers tap your innate ability to connect words and meaning naturally — without rote memorization. You’ll quickly acquire proficiency in all 4 key skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. Using the included headphones/microphone, Rosetta Stone’s speech-recognition software even records and grades your fluency and pronunciation!
Voilá! — Each CD-ROM tracks your progress to reinforce your strengths and revisit your needs. Comprenez-vous? Level 1 teaches basic conversational skills. Level 2 teaches you to navigate in a foreign land, with advance proficiency. Level 3 allows you to connect with people by sharing your ideas and opinions fluently. And each level now includes 4 Audio Companion CD’s that correspond to the CD-ROM software lessons — allowing you to practice anywhere: in the car, the gym or on-the-go! Choose Spanish (Latin America or Spain); French; German; Japanese; Chinese (Mandarin); English; Russian; Italian; Korean; Portuguese; Arabic; Greek and twenty more. Requires Windows 2000, XP or Vista or MAC OS 10.4. Includes Headphones/microphone.
