1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Experience with Rosetta, it will be months before I can use it now.
Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2013
Platform: PC/Mac DiscEdition: FrenchVerified Purchase
I painstakingly down loaded the disks into my Mac, using the lousy instructions from Rosetta. Then left town thinking I would use this while traveling the next several months. But I left the super secret authorization home with the box, now waiting for my son to arrive and send me the "authorization code". I think that the security on this kind of product is way over done. I'm very disappointed to have legitimately purchased it. I feel like I have been taken. I need to have my own techy to do anything these days, no thanks to your paranoia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why do nouns have to have a gender? Stumbling and Learning French With A Great Program
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2011
Platform: PC/Mac DiscEdition: FrenchVerified Purchase
Some reviewers profess to have a talent for learning a language quickly and easily. I am not one of those people.

I grew up near the Canadian border near Quebec. One of the two TV stations we received in a farm on top of a big hill was from Montreal. I enjoyed the cartoons in French. Even though I did not understand what Mickey and his friends were saying, it sounded good when they said it.

I studied French in high school. I got through it and went on to college with the intention of never learning any more French.

Last year, we took a trip to Provence and enjoyed it immensely. I still liked the sound of the language and learned a few words, mainly centered around food and wine. If I am going to pay the 22% VAT tacked on to a bottle wine and a meal cooked in the inimitable French style, I want to know what I am ordering and to be able to order exactly what I want.

So, for an assortment of specious reasons, I decided to learn French.

Level one of Rosetta Stone has been an experience. I learned more French in two weeks than in two years of studying in high school. I like to write (in English) and thought that would make it easier to write in French. I was wrong. I can read and understand many of the stories provided by the Rosetta Stone program. I can play the "bingo" game with the French words with some degree of success. I cannot yet speak the language at all.

Rosetta Stone is not like studying in school. It is more fun. It emphasizes practical situations a tourist is likely to encounter. I have learned quite a few words in a short time. I struggle during each lesson with the gender of nouns. The philosophy of the program is to show the student how words are used and, gradually, through repetition, sounds, and seeing the words in different contexts, teaching the student this beautiful language. In other words, I learned English this way--why not French?

Since I am no longer two, and probably have more trouble accepting how language is used in ways to which I am unaccustomed, I found using the internet made the process quicker. Some of the French words seemed the same. The computer program insisted they were not the same. In fact, the words may be the same but they are used in different situations. Sorting that out with a French dictionary or one of the useful French sites makes learning the language, in conjunction with Rosetta Stone, an easier task. The Rosetta Stone program does not care how long I take to look up a new French word I find to be confusing.

I did not realize when starting the program that an advantage of Rosetta Stone is using the internet to have a "studio session" with a native speaker. I became aware of this feature when the company offered a one-hour internet seminar. I immediately signed up for session two of level one with a French instructor.

My hesitation in trying an online session was that I would look and sound foolish. I was not disappointed.

I can read and understand some French phrases now. That is not the same as quickly matching gender with a noun and then knowing the correct verb to match. And, when hearing a native speaker ask a question, a long suppressed memory of being in a high school class when I did not know the answer immediately took center stage in my mind.

Being an adult with a much different motivation than I had in high school (no cute, 16 year old girl in a short skirt and long hair sitting beside me creating a hormonal overload while purring something, almost anything in French, that interfered with learning the language) I have lumbered on alone with my computer. The instructor, a native French speaker, was very helpful and very patient.

I found myself, having lived in Germany for two years (courtesy of the U.S. Army) and having studied Spanish for four years in college, occasionally using words that I knew were not English but, alas, not French either. When asked to give the French name for a country to which the instructor was pointing, I quickly pronounced "Deutschland" perfectly. (A correct name but definitely not French.) The instructor may have thought he was working with an American who spoke German and Spanish and English and trying to learn a fourth language. He would have been wrong but the exercise was probably amusing to the other participants who, fortunately, did not know my identity.

I learned more with my mistakes in the studio session than I learned by speaking into a microphone on the computer.

The upshot: This is a very good program. The studio sessions are critical. The program is practical easy to use. I can learn at my own pace and repeat sessions where I experience problems or just to refresh my memory before starting a new level.

My purpose is to learn how to speak French. Reading and understanding is a good start but not the same as stringing together the correct words in a sentence in real time with a native speaker. If you decide to buy the product, take advantage of the studio sessions as quickly as you can if you want to learn the language.

Another observation: The company seemed to genuinely be interested in my progress. I have asked questions of their customer service department. I have been treated in a courteous manner, by friendly people who speak English well and they answered my questions promptly and accurately. I have received follow-up emails thanking me for participating in the webinar, noting the scheduled times for my studio sessions, and helping in real time with technical difficulties in setting up my Mac to work with the instructor.

I was so pleased with level one, I have already purchased levels two and three--just to provide extra incentive to move on and into the next level. One hint: Buy levels 1-3 at the same time if you think you will be using the program to actually learn the language enough so you can use it in a French speaking country. It is cheaper that way.

I haven't had to the opportunity to even use this program yet as there were issues downloading the program, then downloading the "language learner". Those issues had been resolved by waiting 15 minutes at a time to speak with someone on the phone for multiple phone calls. Now that I have everything downloaded and running properly, the Rosetta Stone server has been down for days due to overwhelming high volume. I'm sorry, but I have the CD's right here, paid a large amount for the program, but I have to connect to a server to use any part of my program?! And apparently their server (and it is their server issue, not mine) is not equipped to handle a high volume of use? Unbelievable. Very disappointing.

Be prepared to spend TIME learning another language. If you are not "dedicated" your interest will "slip away" quickly. I would say it is very organized and "well done" and put together very nicely. I would recommend that you try out just the first level to see if your commitment lasts. Having some kind of written material to assist you in learning the language would be helpful (workbooks etc) and they do NOT have any such thing. Practice, Practice Practice.

Over all the idea isn't bad (although the interface interaction and voice recognition need work), but for the price I paid (and asked for a refund) I think the over all amount of content is extremely slim. For $400.00 USD and levels 1-3 (out of 5) I expect to have 3/5ths of the French language at my finger tips and instead I got the first few weeks of French 101 and the same basic stuff over and over again (and most of that wasn't of much use).

Do yourself a favor and go online instead - plenty of good videos and games to help you learn French.

It’s a great product ........but I found that when no English is used to tell you what some French words mean......well then we are always left to guess at what those words could mean. The grammar is never explained anywhere yet and I am 3/4 way thru level 1 but expected to write and translate sentences. I am an English teacher by profession and find this confusing. I had to buy supplementary books to explain what the basic grammar was (what words to use when/why)

This is a marvellous system for language learning, well-structured, fun to do and remarkably effective in basic functional language development. The few, incomplete printed installation instructions can cause problems (eg in installing two language programs on the same computer), but online support is good.
