Awesome I am a 13 year old who loves to learn. Rosetta Stone is simply a great program. I can now speak and think basic latin. Not many 13 year olds can say that. August 13, 2011
Awesome method for conversational Latin! Rosetta Stone Latin is fun and easy to use, and the audio companion actually really useful because it gives you plenty of opportunities to hear Latin in your spare time, allowing you to recall what you learned earlier and engraining the language into your mind. With plenty of practice, this program really works. The pronunciation used in the program, however, falls short. Rosetta Stone attempts to use what is called the "Classical" pronunciation of Latin (the way Latin was spoken by the Romans in the time of Julius Caesar), which is becoming standard in schools and especially among those who seek to revive Latin as a living, spoken language. Anyone who has ever studied Latin formally, however, should know that Latin distinguishs between "long" and "short" vowels, something of extreme importance to Classical Latin syntax. Rosetta Stone ignores this fact and treats all vowels the virtually the same, and therefore is inconsistent with the style of pronunciation used in the program. There are a few other nuances of Classical Latin pronunciation that are completely ignored by Rosetta Stone, which is slightly dissapointing considering the amazing quality of other languages they offer; more research should have been done in this regard. It would have been perfect. September 2, 2010
GOOD SOFTWARE, NOT OFFICIAL LANGUAGE! Rosetta Stone V3 is simply : AMAZING The Language is NOT the language the Vatican people use! beware! This is the ANCIENT ROMAN Latin...otherwise its 5 stars! They need to label Latin better as its misleading! now i know why its not a popular item....we want the better Latin! August 28, 2010
One big flaw Rosetta stone is great except for one large flaw.(at least in the latin version) It dose not explain anything it only shows pictures which for a complex language like latin is a huge flaw and can complicate and confuse things for me. Because of this I have to use a separate program to teach me the fine grammar while I only use Rosetta stone for vocabulary expansion. That was upsetting as I spent 500$ for the program. June 4, 2010
Great As a single father, working 40+ hours a week and taking 9-12 credits per semester in college I am always short on time. I decided to try Rosetta Stone and learn Latin on my own, and hopefully test out of the language requirement in school. After going through the program, I have almost finished the 1st disk, I am sure that I will not only be able to test out, but I am actually enjoying it. I am also in the Military, and I spent 3 years living in Germany. I have learned more Latin in 3 months with Rosetta Stone then I learned German by living there for 3 years. April 9, 2010
simply speaking Rosetta Stone is simple and easy to use. Start speaking your language in a few days. Rosetta Stone is so easy even a cave man can do it. April 8, 2010
Wonderfull I am home schooled and got this for my language class and I love it. It is so easy to learn and I retain it all. This is a great program for anybody who wants to learn Latin. January 4, 2010
The Best I started Rosetta stone: Latin, I started it a few weeks ago. I take a break every couple of days. Now I think about it when I walk and talk. The immersion technique is dynamite. I know the basic verb tenses. Rosetta Stone shows only one and I get them all not to mention my increase of vocabulary and I am about to start German or Russian and I just can't make up my mind.

Best Method Yet I was offered the chance to use Rosetta Stone while stationed overseas, and so chose Latin because I've always wanted to learn it. I took German for 5 years as a class, and learned and retained more Latin in one month than in 5 years of German. Now that I'm back in the states I plan on ordering the complete package. I can't wait to continue learning. September 11, 2009
Best Learning Software Out There! I ordered this product for High School because I will be taking Latin. And wanted to prepare myself so I wanted to learn Latin. I also wanted to learn Latin to improve my SAT score on Vocabulary. I did the program over the summer brake and finished it in about 4 months and now i can speak the langugae and write the langugae. I also carry a Pocket Latin Dictionary for some other words in Latin I don't know. All my friends envy me and think it's really cool I know Latin. Now I'm going to learn Greek to also improve my SAT score. July 10, 2009
