Rosetta Stone | The software for language learning
Rosetta Stone is a software for language learning, developed by the American company Rosetta Stone Ltd and used by more than five million users in 150 countries.
Many private users, companies and government agencies like NASA and the US State Department use it because of the results obtained with its Dynamic Immersion method.
It is possible to try the software online, learning a few words in Turkish (this language was used in the example, because it is not known to most of the potential visitors), in the website of the publisher. This demo gives a good idea of the method in action.
The courses can be bought online directly from the website of the producer at the following link:

The software generates combinations of exercises both automatically or based on user requirements, and can assess if they are carried out correctly.
