Please, elaborate and give details. This way if a potential learner is informed, then the product can be modified by the customer to help learn the target language or just be avoided. 3 persons have voted this message useful | |||

The Armenian and Tamil courses have been discontinued, so if you're interested in either, grab them now.

I didn't think so at all. The lessons were appropriately sized, for the most part were interesting, and even contained several dialogs with regional accents. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

@flydream777, Thanks for your review. I am interested to know more about the new programs, as some do change either for the better or worse. I found the Brazilian Portuguese program like you to be useful. I did find the dialogue to be a little slow at first, but someone can modify and speed that up. The new Spanish base will help me, as I will use it to instinctively compare the two languages back and forth out loud. A note on the new learn Italian program has less vocabulary, than the previous edition, but it is still useful for the learner. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I had the opportunity to glance through the new "Perfectionnement Allemand" at the bookstore. It looks like a very
significant update over the last version. It has 70 lessons instead of 56, 4h10 of audio instead of 2h40, and looks more like a continuation of the newer "L'Allemand". The audio of some lessons is available here. I am currently going through the old version, but I may try the new one afterwards.
