Learn Languages: Rosetta Stone 2.3.4

Learning a foreign language is particularly useful these days as more and more people travel abroad looking for jobs, a better life or maybe just their dream life. Whether it’s a job that takes you to another country, family or just a taste for adventure, knowing how to speak the local language can be a great way to get started. Sure, living in a new place will certainly help towards learning the language better than any course will, but until you get to that stage there’s still a ways to go.

Learn Languages: Rosetta Stone is an app that was built specifically to help you out with when trying to learn a new foreign language. The tool comes with a simple interface, so figuring out the app isn’t difficult at all.

Wide range of languages

The tool helps you learn a range of languages, including English (American and British), Chinese, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and so on. The number of available languages isn’t all that big, but the selection is definitely larger than with other app.s
After you set up an account, for which you’ll require an email address, the app asks you to set up your profile by selecting the voice type that best describes your own voice, so the app knows what to expect and what to listen for. You can pick between “Adult male,” “Adult female,” and “Child”.

There are multiple lessons you can check out, starting with the core one. Then, there’s pronounciation, vocabulary, grammar and reading exercises, each lesson lasting for anywhere between ten minutes to half an hour. There are multiple lessons you can go through, including writing and listening exercises, as well as speaking.

As you’d expect, the lessons are free only in part. For the rest of the course you’ll have to pay about $200.

Start your learning

Before you start any of the lessons, you’ll have to go through a little setup that involves adjusting your headphone volume and making sure the phone’s microphone is active. As you go through the lessons, you’ll sometimes have to speak up and pronounce something, while on other occasions you’ll have to match a phrase to a picture. It all depends on the type of exercise you go through, of course.

Learning Languages: Rosetta Stone is a nice tool and you’ll certainly be able to learn quite a bit by using it. It’s pretty easy to work with and you shouldn’t have any difficulties from this point of view.
