  • I've used Rosetta Stone and they called a Newspaper a 「本」.

    Or did they call a Book a 「しんぶん」?

    I don't exactly remember, all I remember is it was wrong.

  • Good to know!

  • @Gimmeaflakeman If you wanna, I'll go back and take a screenshot of it and send it to you. (As I recall, it was in Unit #1)

  • Look at the comment below. Send me the pic and I will use it!

  • Rosetta stone can't even spell (or pronounce) 'totally' right so I don't really trust them....

  • @Houstof It might have been an old patch. My friend told me not to update it when I used it. IDK Why, maybe that's because he's a "Copyright Abolitionist" (Pirate)

  • @CyborgNinja7 he is just a hating idiot.... rosetta stone is just fine

  • @otherlifes dont worry about it..... he is wrong.... rosetta stone didnt change those words.... he is just hating... dont listen to people that much

  • @commodore256 youre wrong... i learn from rosetta stone and your information dont match.. probably youre a bad student

  • @rainbowrants Romaji is bad. In my opinion, replacing kanji with kana in RS Japanese is more annoying (i.e. くつ下 instead of 靴下)

  • Lots of the comments comment about how rosetta stone calls a news paper a book. There are tons of mistakes like this in the program. Simple Japanese spelling errors. "ha/wa" errors. In areas where the English should be HA they put in romaji WA , sometimes. As it gets more advanced, certian lesson they completely put backwards. Its really mixed up.

  • @otherlifes I'm sure that's right

    I only used it briefly at a friend's place. I'm not sure if it's fixed now, haven't seen him in months.

  • @commodore256 A newspaper is called a 「しんぶん」 right??? because I use rosetta stone and I hope its correct because I've been using it for a while...

  • @commodore256 I used Rosetta Stone the other day and they correctly called a newspaper "新聞."
