I took about five years of French in middle school/high school combined and all I got out of it is how to roughly translate french to someone that knows nothing about French. I can also read it fairly well, enough to get by.

I would like to get the French Rosetta Stone to give me a little brush up on it.

Overall though, Rosetta Stone is awful for teaching someone a new language because they don't touch on the basics of grammar and sentence structures.

I have always wanted to learn Japanese one day.

The main reason I started out on the French path is because they were only offering Spanish and French at my school.

People were saying Spanish was way easier so I went with French for the "challenge" but it wasn't that bad.

I also picked French because it's the language of love or so they say.

My third and final reason for picking French was because there were so many hot chicks in that class and I felt like it was my own personal secret. I told my friend to pick French over Spanish so I did share the wealth somewhat. There were three guys total in my French class and the third guy was gay.
