I love it, but some forgiveness is required. – Rosetta Stone: Learn Languages Review

It’s a wonderful software, but the sections that require speaking, quite laughably, leave much to be desired as I was able to say words nowhere close to what was asked and still receive a passing grade. One of the pronunciations asked for the spoken syllable “ra”, and after several times of saying it exactly it asked me to and failing I got mad and said “mother f***er!” instead. That, apparently, was what they were looking for as the software considered it to be correct i.e. a green circle and a positive “you win!” sound. For what Rosetta Stone promises (and the amount customers are paying to use the software) this shouldn’t be an issue. It is though, and needs to be addressed ASAP. tl;dr: “Blahblahblah” is considered proper Arabic in the R.S. system.
