Summary: Sounds too good to be true?
Review: You're right! I bought this software, excited because I want to learn vietnamese, french, tahitian, russian, and polish up on portuguese and spanish. 25 of the languages have vocabulary glossaries only (not that 76 languages isn't alot). But there is really no guideline to follow, there is a long list of phrases, some practical to repeat and good speech recognition software, but I was lost. I found the alphabet to print out and practice, and this software kept my interest for only a couple of days. It is easy to get frustrated because you don't feel like you're learning, just repeating phrases you hope you can remember, but don't seem very practical. I would recommend this software for polishing up already learned skills, maybe, and introducing yourself to a new language, but don't buy the hype that it is all you need to learn "guaranteed."
