...which means it is stolen software.
I would suggest that we not support illegal activities in Mexico, but that would probably get me flamed.   cool.gif

Wow. Well, esperanza's the expert. I also have "Spanish Now!" and liked it, too, when I went through it several years ago. I mentioned "Madrigal's" because it's a more recent acquisition, and I've found some helpful stuff in it. I think my point was (is) that you should not rely on any ONE resource to learn about ANY subject, whether it's Spanish or string theory or the US Civil War. I know that everyone learns differently, but practice, practice, practice seems to be a standard for language -- and that's Rosetta's idea. And, don't forget in-person classes...

Rosetta is great, but it can't do it all. You need to have a good, fat dictionary at your side, and maybe another practice lesson book. Or several. :-) I like the Larousse dictionary, and "Madrigal's Magic Key to Spanish," both of which are available at the Bugambillas bookstore. I'm no expert -- my Spanish is at the Village I d i o t level -- but I think you need to just keep plowing ahead with as many resources as you can find.
