1- Click on the red words to Download Rosetta Stone Spanish (Latin America) Level 1 with Audio Companion : The Rosetta Stone products deserve the stellar reputation they have earned. They install easily and in less than a half an hour. Once you've installed, though, hold on to your seat! Rosetta Stone's "Dynamic Immersion" program results from its use of images associated with words, intuition about carefully designed patterns for modeling grammar concepts, interactivity that gives learners instant feedback, and finally, systematic instruction that incrementally builds by combining simple concepts into more and more complex sentences to create meaningful utterances. Thus, Rosetta Stone takes learners on a supersonic adventure in language learning that is revolutionary, not because any of the pedagogical concepts are new themselves (immersion is nothing new), but because technology has made it possible to harness the best methods and make them available 24/7, to allow learners to artificially immerse themselves anywhere they can use the program.

Rosetta Stone uses what traditional wisdom has always known, but it uses technology to do it consistently and with intensity. The human mind naturally searches for patterns and makes deductions and inferences about them. That is how we all learned our mother tongues. What Rosetta Stone has done is to limit the choices learners are asked to make and the result is to fast-track the natural process of language acquisition. This allows the mind--dare I say causes the mind?--to correctly lay down new pathways for the second language you have decided to learn.
Another reason Rosetta Stone succeeds is because it does not give in to the temptation that most "live" language teachers succumb to when they empathize with students' confusion and translate. All that is required of learners is that they work consistently, engaging their consciousness and paying attention. There are nearly 100 lessons in Level 1, distributed among four core lessons per unit. Lessons in each unit can take about 30 minutes, making it easy to budget your time. Rosetta Stone charts your course, evaluates your work, and even allows you to reset your score to zero and start again. What's more, it gives learners schedules and deadlines. The language recognition software is so impressive it seems as if science fiction has become a reality.
Finally, no matter how much work you do or how successful you are with an automated system such as Rosetta Stone, good as it is, the time will come when you need to study Spanish Face to Face -- with a live instructor. And, good as such programs are to help you develop some fundamental intuitions about grammar, eventually, you will have to face the details. For that, you will need to master the pronoun system, the past tenses and the subjunctive. For some lively articles about language learning, visit this blog.

3-Click on the red words to Download Rosetta Stone German Level 1, 2 & 3 Set with Audio Companion : German pronunciation and spelling are regular and predictable. There are three categories of German nouns: masculine, feminine, and neuter.

German nouns are always capitalized, regardless of where they occur in a sentence. For example: Der Mann läuft.
Many verbs have two parts: one part that comes after the subject and one part that comes at the end of the sentence. For example: Der Mann hat einen Apfel gegessen.
The German alphabet contains all the letters of the Roman alphabet and in addition includes the letter ß.
The vowels in some German words have a mark written above them, a pair of dots called an umlaut ¨. This mark shows you how to properly pronounce the word, and it may distinguish one word from another, which is identical except for the mark. For example: ein Apfel – zwei Äpfel.
German has both formal and informal ways to address others, depending on the age of the speaker and her relationship to the person or persons being addressed.
