Verdict

Rosetta Stone developed by Rosetta Stone Ltd. is an interactive skill that delivers language training in multiple languages to its users. This voice skill is different from the usual version of language learning programs. The Rosetta Stone attempts to help users who are traveling to a new country yet are not well versed with the language native to that country. The voice skill supports the learning of languages such as French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German, Japanese, and Russian. Moreover, the phrases it trains the user on include greetings, time and travel, directions, food and drink etc. Coming to the aid of avid travelers, Rosetta Stone portrays itself as a curated voice app focused in deepening language through travel. 

Rosetta Stone language learning voice app makes an attempt to attract users who are on the go heading towards exploring unseen spaces and voices. What tops this skill with regard to its features is the language learning program it offers in multiple languages. Besides offering quizzes to brush up the newly learnt words, the voice app also supports features that enable users to polish or enhance their pronunciation. This voice skill not only allows users to drill on the pronunciation to get it right to the extent to which it is possible but also serves as a quiver of stock phrases that the user can make use of to survive in the newly visited country and work their way around in different day to day social scenarios. The voice skill also helps the user navigate to and access the feature he is requesting for with no delay. Another positive is the option to resume from where left off which comes really handy when pressed for time. The few negatives that crept up were the random instances of having to repeat words in order to further the conversation and the absence of ‘Help’ and ‘Learn  More’ options which often are must-haves in a voice app. 

The VOGO Voice team scores this skill a 3.75 out of 5 stars based on our rating system. Yet, you’ll have to try for yourself and see if it is a truly user-friendly language learning voice app that will come handy when you are traveling to a new country and if it offers the enriching experience you had anticipated.
