The new English-base German course was finally released on 6 November, 2014 and is
available on the Assimil site and on Amazon. 7 persons have voted this message useful | |||

I'm a little confused. Is the new Assimil German geared for English speakers learning German or the other way around? The Amazon listing makes it look like it's for German speakers learning English, yet everything on the cover is in English, so I'm confused.

Amazon listings are often non-sensical.
Look at the assimil page: http://fr.assimil.com/methodes/german#super-pack-livre-cd-au dio-cd-mp3 And make sure the ISBN's match. This assimil course is to learn German. EDIT: Someone should also email amazon about the error. EDIT: I joined 420 days ago. Heh heh heh. Edited by Gemuse on 15 November 2014 at 7:07pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Awesome! I'd love to hear someone's review of it that's been using it.

Whatever the title of the book is, is the language you will learn. (in this case, you will learn German) Whatever the language of the title of the book, is the teaching language. (in this case, you will learn in English) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

That is rather hefty. Around 50 pages more than the Russian course! I imagine it is just because of the dictionary in the back since it would make sense this course would give you more vocabulary than the Russian course. I am interested to count the vocab when it arrives since I often hear a very large range for how much a given Assimil course teaches. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

The french edition that I have (the one with the castle on the cover) has 694 pages. The course ends at page 581, the rest is the grammar and vocabulary parts. Edited by Arnaud25 on 16 November 2014 at 7:25am 1 person has voted this message useful |
