Same here; a long while ago I tried to teach myself German via rosetta and it was not good. I remember the point where I gave up which was where 2 different words were used for food. Food for an animal, and for a person [1] I just wondered if there was a mistake, or what. A simple note saying 'yes there are different words for this unlike in English'[2] but no. I guess that was the final straw, I felt I was fighting something very poorly designed and basically not doing its job.
[1] Maybe it was 'to eat', I can't remember.
[2] In english there are actually different terms for human and animal edibles used in some contexts, these being 'food' and 'feed'
