Language Learning Showdown Rosetta Stone vs. Duolingo. There are so many language learning resources available now it can feel a bit overwhelming. Rosetta Stone and Duolingo are two of the most popular choices, but they each have their own perks and quirks. Lets translate their key features so you can pick the right tool for your language studies. Learning a new language is difficult, which is why theres a huge market for tools and apps to Read more Read. The Contenders. This language learning showdown is truly a battle of two generations and two ideals. In one corner we have a company that has been around since the early 9. In the other corner is the new kid on the block, championing the belief that learning language should be freely available to everyone. As Hurricane Irma rakes the west coast of Florida, all eyes are on the cities and human lives in the storms path. But Irma is also hammering the Florida Everglades. Lets take a closer look at our contenders before we ring the bell Rosetta Stone This language learning software has been around since 1. CALL tools on the market. Rosetta Stones approach to teaching is called Dynamic Immersion, which involves gradually introducing sights and sounds, words, sentences, conversations, and concepts in a way thats supposed to accelerate the learning process. Rosetta Stones roster boasts 2. Its available on Windows, Mac, i. OS, and Android devices. Duolingo Duolingo, our reader chosen favorite, appeared in late 2. So much so, by 2. Duolingo was worth more than double what Rosetta Stone was worth. It uses a crowdsourced model for all of its translations and lessons, and mainly teaches through the gamification of translating words and phrases. Duolingo offers 2. Its available on Windows, i. OS, and Android devices. Both options can also be used in browser, depending on what services you choose to use. And while Rosetta Stones steep price tag may immediately turn you off, it doesnt make Duolingo an automatic winner by any means. It wont be ideal for everybody, but there are still plenty of reasons to shell out the cash. Learning a new language is tough enough without having to deal with the method you use to learn it.

Spanish Latin America, Spanish Spain, French, Italian, German, English American, English British, Arabic, Chinese Mandarin, Dari, Dutch, Filipino Tagalog, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Irish, Japanese, Korean, Latin, Pashto, Persian Farsi, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Swahili, Swedish, Turkish, Urdu, and Vietnamese. Duolingos 2. 1 languages include Spanish, French, German, Italian, English, Portuguese, Dutch, Irish, Danish, Swedish, Russian, Polish, Romanian, Greek, Esperanto, Turkish, Vietnamese, Hebrew, Norwegian, Ukrainian, Hungarian, and Welsh. As you can see, Duolingo has a nice set of popular languages. But do you notice anything when you compare the two Duolingo has almost no Asian languages, save for Vietnamese. In fact, it has very few languages that use non English, non Latin alphabets. That means if you want to learn Arabic, Chinese, Dari, Tagalog, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Pashto, Turkish, or Urdu, youll have to go with Rosetta Stone or another program. Granted, its hard to complain about it too much when Duolingo isnt charging you a cent. Learning new languages is a natural instinct for children, and yet it becomes more difficult as weRead more Read. Rosetta Stone Charges an Arm and a Leg, Duolingo Is Free. As mentioned, Duolingos biggest boon is the fact that its 1. All you have to do is make a Duolingo account and you can access just about everything it has to offer on your computer, i. OS, or Android device. There are some paid offerings on Duolingo, but theyre mostly cosmetic items, or things like a Streak Repair when you break a lesson streak. Rosetta Stone, on the other hand, offers two pay to learn options CD or download software option You can pay a single fee to access level 1 of a languageabout five to six hours of lessonsfor around 1. You can download the lessons or have CDs shipped to you. However, this option is only available for Windows and Mac computers. Subscription option For a recurring subscription fee you can access all levels of a selected language for the duration of an online subscription. They offer three month 7. These lessons can be accessed on your computer, i. OS, or Android device. Though, I wouldnt recommend using the web interface, as I found it pretty clunky. If you want to access lessons on the go, the subscription plan is your only option. Its also cheaper if you think you can make your way through an entire program in a certain amount of time. If youll be learning casually, and dont mind doing all of your lessons on your computer, the downloadCD option is best. No matter what, Rosetta Stone is going to be pretty expensive compared to Duolingo. But its not hard to find deals on Rosetta Stone that reduce the pricing quite a bit. For example, I just purchased a 1. Japanese for only 1. And Rosetta Stone offers payment plans if you dont want to pay it all up front, as well as a 3. Still, Duolingo is free. Free Knowing another language is a valuable skillone that could boost your salary and your brain. While Read more Read. Duolingo Teaches You Faster, Rosetta Stone Teaches You Deeper. The real question on your mind is probably Which one of these works better Well, like most forms of education, it depends on how much effort you put in. Theyre both very effective tools for learning language. But if you want something more concrete, a study in 2. Duolingo. The study suggests it takes 3. Duolingo lessons to learn the equivalent of one college semester, but 5. Rosetta Stone. However, the study included only one language, Spanish, and both tools dramatically increased the Spanish speaking ability of participants. Before you stop reading and choose Duolingo because its free and won in a single comparative study, its important to consider how they teach. Both share some similarities, but they teach differently, and one style may be more conducive to your learning preferences. Duolingos gamified lessons focus on direct translation of words and phrases, and your studies remain primarily in the bilingual fieldmeaning youre almost always translating from one language to your native language, or vice versa. This makes learning quicker and simpler, but less immersive. Rosetta Stone stops holding your hand almost immediately, forcing you to piece together and describe whats happening in various photos. It can be frustrating at times, but its the closest thing to a real life scenario and it forces you to start thinking with the language youre learning. And using the target language in the thought process is one of the major cornerstones of learning it. Rosetta Stone is also a bit more feature rich than Duolingo. For example, it has an adjustable speech recognition engine you can tweak to increase or decrease the difficulty of pronunciation tests. As you progress through your lessons, you can make the speech recognition judge harder. Rosetta Stone is also particularly useful when youre learning a language with a different alphabet because it will abandon the English alphabet right from the start. Not only are you deciphering whats in a photo, when you see the words, you see them the way you need to know them. You learn to decipher, pronounce, and identify words and characters. If youre not sure which approach youd like more, you can try both. Duolingo is free to use, and Rosetta Stone offers a free trial to give you a taste for the way it teaches. Give them both a go and see if one grabs you more. Lifehacker reader Gabriel Wyner was tasked with learning four languages in the past few years forRead more Read. Duolingo Is Best for Beginners and FREE, Rosetta Stone Is Best for Committed Learners. Truth is, both of these tools are great for different reasons. In my opinion, it all depends on why youre interested in learning a language. If youve never tried learning a new language before, go directly to Duolingo, do not pass Rosetta Stone, do not pay 2. It is a fantastic introduction to the languages it offers and it gives you a lot to work with for no charge. Its also a ton of fun. Theyre always updating with new features, lesson types, and ways to keep you motivated. And Duolingo is super easy to use anywhere on your smartphone or tablet. Its perfect for the on the go traveler that wants to get a basic grasp on a language.

Just How Dead Is Microsoft Paint UpdatedThis morning, Windows users woke to terrible news Microsoft was reportedly axing its beloved Microsoft Paint. The program, which has been annotating our memes, creating our webcomics, and teaching us how to art since 1. Microsofts list of Windows features to be removed or deprecated in the Windows 1. Fall Creators Update. But this doesnt mean Paint as we know it is deadThe list Paint was featured on very specifically says that each product will either be killed, or it will be deprecatedwhich merely means it will no longer be actively developed. Paint falls into the latter category. So it could be dropped in a future update, or it could hang around for the next decadean artifact of a different time. Outlook Express, another Windows application thats conjures memories for older users, is being killed in the same update. It is officially supplanted by the big boy Microsoft Outlook, which is more stylistically in line with Windows 1. Outlook Express. While Outlook Express has long languished in the shadow of its hipper Outlook cousin, MS Paint has seen infrequent updates that at least allow it to look like it belongs on a 2. MS Paint, the first app you used for editing images, will probably be killed off in future updates of Windows 10, replaced by the new app Paint 3D. Microsoft lists. Microsoft is very aware of how much affection users have for Microsoft Paint. The product, which many of us used as a digital doodling book when we were kids, has a cult following. When Microsoft briefed press on the original Creators Update back in March, its representatives only had nice things to say about the application. Paint is on every Windows computer It makes creating art easy Its like Photoshop but simple and free This is not how you talk when youre planning to ax a product. This is definitely the kind of talk you deliver when youre launching a new Paint product. Which was what was happening at that press briefing. Microsoft launched Paint 3. D, a 3. D rendering and printing tool intended to simplify the production of 3. D products, in March. The name Paint 3. D was specifically used so play on peoples nostalgia for MS Paint. Its not unreasonable to expect that the upcoming Fall Creators Update will see Paint 3. D expanded to incorporate the features we all know and love from Paint. Either way, it is not in Microsofts best interest to kill an application that has been loved for more than 3. Right now Microsoft is campaigning to steal all the artists and other creators who have traditionally preferred the Mac ecosystem for creating digital art. Its why Microsoft spent so much time talking about the Surface Pen when it updated the Surface Pro a few months ago, and its why it launched the Surface Studio last October. Heck, its why it keeps calling every new Windows OS update a creators update. It wants those usersTransforming its most enduring creative application into something more robust is a clear next step. Eventually Microsoft could kill the ugly version of Paint we love in order to release shiny new version of Paint or a Paint adjacent application. Or Microsoft could just leave MS Paint in the Deprecated column for a while, a cool app eventually destined to be forgotten as younger computer users snap up alternate tools like Photoshop Express or Autodesk Sketchbook. Either way Microsoft Paint isnt dead, its just deprecated, and Microsoft has made no comment on how long it could be deprecated. So maybe dont go ordering funeral flowers just yet. Weve reached out to Microsoft to learn more about the plans for Paint and will update if we hear back get back to us.

This July, we asked for software tips from the 2. Microsoft Office National Champions, a set of charming teens who are officially the best at using Power. Point, Word, and Excel. The Verge recently followed these teens to the World Championship in California, where they tested their Office skills in a contest that out nerds the spelling bee. It was as if the Olympics opening ceremony was replaced by a networking event, says the Verge. The event demonstrates Microsofts global dominance, as forty nine countries competed, though the Verge found that many international competitors chose to compete in English over their native language, as the companys localized software is poorly translated. Each year, hundreds of thousands of American teenagers compete to be the best at Word, Excel, andRead more Read.

S helping to bring PC and Mac users together thanks to a cool software solution called, Flow which allows users to use the same mice with multiple computers at once. But for a long time, the company never had a keyboard that could deliver the same sort of style and quality its pointers delivered. So despite a pretentious sounding name like Craft the only thing worse would be to call this thing an artisanal keyboard and not having mechanical keys that are all the rage among the youths of today, Logitechs new wireless keyboard is a delightful piece of tech. Ive only used it for a few days, but its cushioned scissor switches are damn near whisper silent, which is a big plus for people who works next to inconsiderate assholes using keyboards with clackety Cherry Blue switches. Im kidding, kind of. The keys also have a comforting indent and chiclet style layout which makes switching between laptop and desktop keyboards a cinch, even if youre a Mac. Book user. And the backlighting has a special party trick thanks to its proximity sensor, which makes the keyboard light up whenever you get close. But the absolute best thing about Craft is that when teamed up with another Flow enabled device like Logitechs MX Master 2. S mouse, it completely eliminates the need for archaic tech like KVM switches. Controlling multiple computers with the same input devices has never been easier. Logitech Flow even lets you copy and paste things across up to three different machines, and because Flow works over Bluetooth or Logitechs own wireless dongle, theres no cords to worry about either. Another nice feature on the Craft is the big dial on the top left. It can do normal stuff like adjust the volume of your computer, but it also works with Microsoft and Adobe software. Now you can use the dial to adjust settings in apps like Photoshop and Powerpoint. Its the same idea behind the Surface Dial, and it gives you precise, granular control when you want to adjust things like contrast or opacity. The main drawback is that only seven apps are fully supported right now four from Adobe and three in MS Office, though Logitech says more are on their way. And while important apps like Chrome dont have any pre installed controls either, you can create your own dial shortcuts on a somewhat limited basis. But before the fawning goes too far, I must mention that the Craft isnt perfect. It doesnt have adjustable legs in back, so people who like a little angle to their keyboard dangle are out of luck. And if you choose to keep the backlighting on, in wireless mode, Logitech says the Craft will only last about a week, which is far less than some of its past wireless keyboard like the Di. Novo Edge. Turning the backlighting off extends longevity to about a month, but who is going to do that However, I do have to give Logitech props for fitting the Craft with a USB C port for recharging instead of micro USB. Its helpful nod to the future that a lot of other accessory makers seem to be ignoring. Lastly, theres the Crafts price 2. That aint cheap by anyones standards, but its not that different than a high quality mechanical keyboard, and the Craft has way more features. The Craft is due out sometime in October.
