It is very early to have a strong view as I am just four days into trying to learn Spanish and so far I have only devoted one hour per day, but my first impression is that it would be helpful to have the English phrase written as well as the Spanish. Because Rosetta Stone uses images, and then displays the words in Spanish, it is not always clear (at least not me) what the phrase means, and therefore also seeing it in English would help to better understand a phrase or sentence. At first, I was confused as there seemed to be images of boys, girls, men and women with so many different words for each of them, as it wasn’t obvious the word was describing what they were doing (e.g. swimming, running, etc.). If the phrase had also appeared in English it would have been clearer.
