Since we are learning different languages today, we must always keep an eye on the methods we may use to learn them, especially those excellent methods. Although we still cannot falsely call Rosetta Stone the best method for one person to study one new language, for the best method must be those which suit individuals' tastes and styles, we can claim that this software can be a helpful aide in learning a brand new language. If I just speak how beautiful and excellent this software is, you will think I am bragging like an idiot. So what I should do now is to present the shining functions of it and let you judge if it is really worth people's attention and money.

One of the biggest functions of Rosetta Stone is immersion. No doubt, from the literal meaning of this word, you can deduce that if you use this software to learn your chosen language, you will dive into this language by using the way here. How can this software demonstrate this function? You must have heard that the Rosetta Stone company aims to help people to learn a new language as you once learned your native language. I guess you didn't have a teacher seriously ...
... teach you how to speak each word you in your native language when you were quite young. Your parents hold you in their arms, speaking very simple things you with much leisure and you didn't intend to learn them but finally you learned them. And the process is that your parents or others holding you must tell you simple things like "mother", "father", "sister" and "brother" such words. With your familiarity about them strengthened, they will tell you some so called difficult things like "I am father", "I am mummy", or "I am uncle" and so on. During this process you were not forced to learn anything, but learned them by immersing yourself into it. Certainly you will never listen to anything like translation either. Rosetta Stone just takes on such a function for you.

But Rosetta Stone doesn't teach you everything and immerse yourself into your chosen language just by one level. Instead this software has included several levels. For example, if you choose Rosetta Stone Spanish in Version 3, you will see there are more than four levels. The first level just focuses on teaching you the basic Spanish words and the most fundamental structure. In the second level you will learn how to address your surroundings in Spanish based on the knowledge you have learned from Level 1. In the third level it teaches you to connect yourself with the world around you by your learned knowledge on Spanish basics and conversation. In the fourth level it will help you touch the details of the Spanish structure and more complicated changes in Spanish verbs. Anyway all the levels of Rosetta Stone just exert themselves to put you wholly into the language and make you touch this language as you learned your mother tongue.

Besides, you must have heard that this software assists you in obtaining words in a different manner. Unlike other tools to let you memorize words by repetition, it helps you learn words by picture, sound and understanding. How? You can see different kinds of pictures while learning words; you can click the tiny button on each picture and guess the meaning of the word; you can further understand words and remember them clearly by understanding the meaning of the whole sentence in which the new words are embedded.

Apart from such functions, you can also feel other excellent functions of Rosetta Stone. You will find them once you choose it to learn your favorite language. But don't limit your creativity! You still have other outstanding choices.
