Lifetime Subscription to Rosetta Stone Is on Sale at a Huge Discount Right Now
If you’ve ever thought about practicing a new language but put it off because the owl got too passive-aggressive, this Rosetta Stone deal might be more suitable for you. StackSocial is offering a lifetime subscription to Rosetta Stone right now for $179.99, down from the regular $399 . This is quite an in-depth approach for those who want to dip their toes into Spanish, French, Korean, or even a less common language like Irish or Farsi. You can access a total of 25 languages, but you can only use one at a time. You can switch between them at any time, which is great for people who want to experiment or brush up on old skills.
Rosetta Stone’s immersion method doesn’t rely heavily on translation—instead, it teaches you by matching words with images and sounds, mimicking the way you naturally acquire language. As you progress, it evolves into interactive lessons that use speech recognition technology to help improve your pronunciation and speaking skills. Plus, the ability to sync with mobile and desktop means you can start a lesson on your laptop and continue on your phone while commuting. Just keep in mind that to get started, you’ll need a decent internet connection (at least 768Kbps), a headset with a microphone if you want to use speech recognition tools, and a device running Windows 7+ or macOS 10.9+. It is not compatible with older systems and the sale is only available to new users, so returning Rosetta Stone students will not be able to profit.
Overall, it’s a solid price if you want to practice the language and want the structure to be there for a long time. But if you’re just toying with the idea or looking for something more casual, free apps may be enough for you. However, the fact that it’s a one-time payment with lifetime access to 25 languages could prove useful for anyone with long-term travel dreams or multilingual ambitions.
