Rosetta Stone Portuguese Product Details

Features:

Rosetta Stone teaches Portuguese through a step–by–step sequence of carefully structured lessons, called Dynamic Immersion™. New words become associated with familiar objects, actions, and ideas. Words build to phrases and sentences in a systematic progression.

Studies show that learning exclusively in the new language—without translation as a crutch—is crucial if you want to communicate. Grammar drills and rote memorization never develop this skill. Dynamic Immersion helps you think in the new language and quickly develops the language skills and structures you need to for everyday communication.
