Just got Rosetta Stone w/ Japanese language pack.


Future of the Funchise

Recommended Posts

I lie and tell people I got it in an attempt to expand my horizons and grow as a person, but really I just got it so I can watch anime without having to read the subtitles lol.

Anyway has anyone ever tried this out? Does it work for you? Anybody on the huddle speak any other languages besides English, Ebonics, Redneck, or Dumbass?

I don't like how you are insinuating only white people speak Japanese.

On a serious note, there aren't a lot of people who speak Japanese other than, well, the Japanese.

From what I've seen of Rosetta Stone it mostly covers only the basics and is horribly overpriced. This was for Spanish mind you. Japanese will require more instruction. Honestly the best thing to do is to grab a real textbook and take a real class at a college.

I have 2 black friends that speak Japanese and Korean Fluently. They should be learning Chinese.

Hahah, you used urban dictionary? I already know two languages, I could use a third, but learning Japanese just for the anime, eh. Not my cup of tea. I rather learn one more language that I will use frequently or will help me get a better job. I was thinking about chinese but there's so many variations. I might opt for Russian.

Japanese is not a great idea for Rosetta stone. I took Japanese in high school and I've been to Japan, without knowing Kanji you really know nothing and I doubt Rosetta stone will be teaching you that. Take some classes, that's the only way to really do anything with a language like Japanese as opposed to something like French or Spanish that uses the same basic alphabet.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
