The Indonesian Language 

The Popularity and Geographic Distribution of the Indonesian Language

Indonesian is the official language of Indonesia.

Indonesia is the fourth most populous nation in the world. Of its large population the number of people who fluently speak Indonesian is quickly approaching 100%, thus making Indonesian one of the most widely spoken languages in the world.

Many aspects of Indonesian grammar are relatively simple to grasp, particularly in comparison to languages such as English. This is mostly due to the fact that Indonesian does not recognize verb tenses or participles, plural forms, articles and gender distinction for the third person pronouns.

Generally, Indonesian and Malay are regarded as easy Asian languages to learn, mostly because they no longer use complex characters within their writing system, but rather utilize the Latin alphabet. Similar cases can also be seen in other Southeast Asian languages such as Vietnamese and Tagalog. At a basic level, Indonesian is often considered one of the easiest languages to learn for adult foreigners. This view is largely due to its relatively unsophisticated and regular grammar and phonology.

The language is spoken throughout Indonesia (and East Timor), although it is used most extensively as a first language in urban areas and usually as a second language in more rural parts of Indonesia. It is also spoken by an additional 1.5+ million people worldwide, particularly in the Netherlands, the Philippines and Malaysia and some parts of Southern Thailand, Brunei, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Australia and the United States

How the Rosetta Stone Method Works. 

Learning Indonesan By Dynamic Immersion

Rosetta Stone's Dynamic Immersion method reconnects people to the language skills they used successfully to master their first language. With Rosetta Stone, you start from a position of strength-your own strength.

Learn a Foreign Language through Context
Rosetta Stone presents a carefully chosen selection of four images and asks you to select the image that matches the written text and the voices of native speakers. Building on the knowledge you've already gained and your intuitive grasp of the meaning of each picture, you make a choice. There's absolutely no translation or memorization to hold you back, so you start making progress immediately.

Immediate Reinforcement
The very second you complete a task, Rosetta Stone provides feedback. Speak a word and our unique voiceprint technology automatically rates your pronunciation. Connect an image with a phrase and you'll immediately learn if your choice was correct. Complete a set of exercises and you'll instantly know how well you did. With Rosetta Stone, you always know where you stand.

Systematic Sequence
Dynamic Immersion& is a continuous process. The Rosetta Stone curriculum is carefully sequenced, gradually incorporating new words, phrases, and more complex grammar as it reinforces existing learning. Your understanding of your new language grows naturally.

WARNING: Free is NOT always FREE! 

Be sure to read the fine print!!

You will frequently see Google ads on this site that say you can get a copy of the Rosetta Stone Indonesian Language software for free. As we all know, there is no such thing as a free lunch! Read the fine print and you will find that in order to get your copy you must exactly perform a set of responses to a series of advertising offers, which includes the requirement to purchase other products and or subscribe to paid services. Only after the advertisers have notified the company that you have satisfied all the requirements of their offers, will the software be sent to you. In effect you end up having to pay for it indirectly and get a lot of other junk in the process. In addition you provide your name and mailing address which will be made available to a number of mailing lists from which you will receive tons of junk mail. Click the link "Program Requirements" at the bottom of their page for the fine print details. My recommendation is don't fall for it!
