These are CD-ROM based courses designed to teach you entirely through the language you want to learn. Each course includes many thousands of photos and phrases and is divided into 92 lessons.
The idea is that you see a picture of something, and then hear and see the word for it. In this way you learn to associate the words with the things they represent without having to translate into your native language. You start learning individual words, then combinations of two or three words, and then gradually learn to build phrases and sentences. The exercises help you develop your listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. You can work through them manually, or let the program take you through them.
These courses provide quite an effective way to learn vocabulary and basic grammar, though I would recommend that you try other language courses as well.
The Personal Edition courses are the most comprehensive Rosetta Stone courses on offer. They are available for the following languages:
Rosetta Stone courses are also available online. For details and
