Rosetta Stone

Has anyone used Rosetta Stone to learn a language?

Was it worth the money.

Did you find it helpful?

I'm firmly planted in denial

And yeah, I found it helpful. It is pretty kickass.

You are instantly doing stuff instead of running practice drills.

What language have you attempted/learned?

Did the program really make it easier?

Spanish and Dutch. I've tried other programs to learn Spanish and it is definitely easier with RS.

Yes, it was really good. I did it for a couple of weeks brushing up on high school level French in 2004. Really easy to use, & both visual & audio repetitive tasks really help it sink in to the old grey matter. I'm totally crap at foreign languages but this was really useful. Spent that New Years in an old country house in the Dordogne in France wi a bunch of very inebriated Frenchies. T'was magic! biggrin

I really wanted to get the Turkish course. I can't justify paying all that mony out right now though.
