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.

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 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.

The timeless immersion method, along with research-based techniques and new technologies, make Rosetta Stone the clear solution to your language-learning needs.

1 out of 5 stars Does not work with Vista   March 16, 2010
J. Poleet
Like other posters, I can't get the software to load properly on my Dell XPS 1330 with Vista Home Premium. I keep getting a fatal application error #5118. I have tried the fixes that Rosetta has on their website for this specific error, but it does not work.

I have spent all of this money, and I can't even use the software.



1 out of 5 stars Good training, but incredibly poor customer service and support   September 5, 2009
Jim Powell (Maui, HI, USA)

I just got off hours on the phone with Rosetta Stone... first in an Indian call center and later with customer service. I bought the product over a year ago and installed it on two computers at home -- one laptop and one desktop. The desktop died and there was no way to uninstall the software. The laptop worked fine and when I bought a new laptop I uninstalled it but forgot to "deactivate" it... actually I didn't forget, I just didn't know I was supposed to do that -- my bad, I guess.

So now I have my new laptop and I cannot install it on the new laptop as it says the activation isn't valid... I called waiting on hold and got India who told me they couldn't help me and that I had to talk to customer service... I called and waiting on hold for 26 minutes and got customer service who was decidedly unhelpful and said I'd have to talk to "activations" I explained that I'd already talked with them and they switched me to you... I asked them to just deactivate all my serial numbers at their server level so I could reinstall these products... they said they can't do that the only way is to deactivate them on the computer... I expalined that one computer is dead and the other was uninstalled.... but I'd reinstall it quickly if they'd hold on the line. They said they wouldn't do that but I kept her talking long enough to get the program reinstalled and sure enough the product was activated but refused to let me deactivate it. Buy the time we got done with our back and forth tech support had gone home for the weekend and they said I'd have to call back Tuesday because of the labor day weekend. Anyway, it was immesely frustrating and they didn't care. So in summary, it's a decent trainin program but for the money you pay for it the customer service and support is a terrible experience.



1 out of 5 stars Rosetta stone is overpriced and faulty software   June 13, 2009
Jerry L. Poe
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Not only is it overpriced and slow as others have mentioned, but it is buggy. I have had the software lose it registration five times since last December. Very inconvenient when traveling outside of the country and their 8 - 5 EST support hours. After being on the phone and three transfers the net is that the problem has yet to be fixed. I bought Living Spanish for 1/4 the price and hope to have better luck.

The product was received in good time and in good condition. The only issue I had was getting it running. The directions were for the online version, thus a little confusing. I got it up and running now and love the product!


5 out of 5 stars Do you want to speak a new language???   January 9, 2009
Edward W. Hood (Valdosta, georgia)
I bought this program in the airport when I came back from Africa. I have been using this program off and on for a few months now and I have learned more through this program then through any other means. I have tried the cheap walmart spanish learning software to even taking spanish 101. ROSETTA STONE WORKS!!! It works because it uses the same exact approach you learned your original language. When you learned english did you translate anything??? Noooo. If I stay consistent with the software, I should be fairly fluent by my 25th birthday. Also, please don't think by buying Rosetta Stone you're going to master any language. Mastering a language requires interaction with native speakers as well as spending time in the language away from the software! I earnestly want to speak spanish so I not only bought Rosetta Stone for spanish, I purchased Dish Network w/ Latino package to watch on my tv. If you have the desire to learn a language, Rosetta Stone is the way to go.
