Unless you’re fleeing the country for legal reasons, a trip overseas is always a great idea. The first visit to a new country is guaranteed to make memories that will last a lifetime, especially if you learn the language before you go. And what better way to do it than with Rosetta Stone?

The No. 1 language-learning platform has wowed millions of users since 1992, and it keeps getting better with each update. Now, new users can take 15% off a lifetime subscription to the service, thanks to a limited-time flash sale. Through midnight tonight, lifetime access to Rosetta Stone is only $159.97 (regularly $299) when you use code VACATION15 at checkout.

Rosetta Stone: Language learning on your schedule

The best thing about Rosetta Stone is its adaptability. Whatever kind of daily schedule you’ve got, you can probably fit in a couple of lessons. And the curriculum is designed to make every word stick.

As soon as you start learning a language, you’ll pair words with images. Then you’ll quickly build up to conversation, with short examples and immersive exercises. The latest iterations of Rosetta Stone mix in pop culture and other timely subjects, so things never get boring.

With this system, you’re not just learning to recognize words. You’re learning to speak like a local, thanks to Rosetta Stone’s TruAccent speech recognition technology. You’re constantly testing your pronunciation against native speakers. Short of in-person conversation, there’s nothing more immersive.

When you start your Rosetta Stone subscription, you can tackle one of 25 different languages, including Spanish, French, Korean, German and Arabic.

A highly rated way to learn a new language

It’s no wonder Rosetta Stone boasts a perfect 5-star rating, with one verified buyer writing, “Possibly the best language learning app at a terrific price. Access to full courses on many languages for life. A great deal.”

Through 11:59 p.m. Pacific on June 20, new subscribers can get lifetime access to Rosetta Stone for just $159.97 (regularly $299) with code VACATION15.
