Rosetta Stone Portuguese (Brazil)

Rosetta Stone Portuguese (Brazil) Introduction:
Do you want to learn a new language with the award-winning method used by the U.S. State Department to train diplomats?
The Rosetta Stone approach, proven effective by NASA astronauts, Peace Corps volunteers, and millions of students worldwide,
teaches new languages faster and easier than ever before.
We all learn our childhood language by associating new words and phrases with
the world around us. The Rosetta Stone method replicates this process by
presenting vivid, real-life images to convey the meaning of each new phrase.
Instead of translating, memorizing, and studying rules of grammar, you actually
learn to think in the new language. Vocabulary and grammar are integrated
systematically, leading to everyday proficiency.
This comprehensive program provides up to 550 hours of mastery instruction in
listening comprehension, reading, writing, and speaking. Systematic structure
teaches vocabulary and grammar naturally, without lists or drills. Previews,
exercises, and tests accompany every lesson, and there are automated tutorials
throughout the program. Graphical speech recognition displays your voiceprint
and compares it with the native speaker to help improve your pronunciation.
(Ages 6 and older)

I highly recommend this software to anyonewho wants to learn another
language fast! I was able to hold a simple conversation in Portugeuse in
under 6 months without studying every day. I use it only once a week now
just to keep it fresh in my mind.
Using this program, to me, was more effective than having a teacher.

I have not used other products like this so I have no way to compare it
to similar products. However, and I very impressed with how easy it is to
use, and the quality of the instruction. One of the best features is if you
don't understand something you can go back and review it. New information
comes out you so fast sometimes I had to go back and review some things a
few time to understand the correct meaning and the word usage. But the
program allows for that. I recommend this product. |

Excellent resource, May 27, 2008

David E.

I spent some time in Brazil last year with a missionary friend and plan to
return regularly in the future, but determined to know some Portuguese next time
I go. I have studied three other languages in the usual formal, structured
methods in class settings. My wife has never studied a language before. We both
find the Rosetta Stone program enjoyable and productive (her word for it is
"fun"). When I speak with my friend, who incidentally grew up in Brazil and
speaks like a Brazilian, he has been amazed at how well I am progressing and how
accurately I speak. My only suggestion would be for one using this program to
purchase a good Portuguese/English dictionary as there will be a few times when
you may be stymied by the absence of English explanation--but those times will
be few. We have also found the book Portuguese for Dummies to be very helpful as
an added resource. I will soon complete level two and feel confident that I
would be quite able to function on my own in Brazil next time and not be
dependent on my friends to do all my talking for me!......David Mitchell

Licensing, February 9, 2008
Version 3 of Rosetta Stone allows for installation on two computers,
unlike the previous version which require the CD-ROM to be inserted for use.
That said, from a licensing standpoint I believe it is still only for use by
one individual and should not be lent!

Rosetta Stone Version 3, December 8, 2007
| By |
Angelo Isom "linguistical
genius" (DECATUR,
GA.) |
I really enjoy version 3 program. This version is geared for any level
learner of portuguese and focuses more on real life conversation and
situations. Version 2 was somewhat disappointing in comparison to Version 3.
Version 3 gives the learner scheduled memory adaptive recalls, lots of
repetion, more interesting graphics, and well structured easy paced lessons
with pronounciation guidlines. I love this fun version of Rosetta Stones and
highly recommend using this program for a variety of needs. Learn a new
language just like a child. I have not seen anything better. Well done
Rosetta Stone!

This product is sold as licensed software. Users will NOT be able to load
it onto more than one computer. This aspect of the product is not clear from
the blurbing on the Rosetta Stone website. It is a "single-user" product.
Don't think that you can share this with friends, or that it is appropriate
for a lending collection.
