With pleasure. Here are a few words or phrases I am able to catch at the very beginning. 25: Guten Abend, Liebling. Warum bist du noch im Bett? 40: Alle leute steigen aus ... kleinen alten Mann 55: Der Engel mit Shuhen 71: Wir wollen ihnen ... eine deutsche persönlichkeit vorstellen 85: Ich kann immer glauben ... Wir sitzen in Zug I hope that can help narrow my question down. I really hope to begin Assimil soon and if you could please be as specific as possible then I would greatly appreciate it. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Thank you very much, sir. These lessons that you posted to seem to correspond to the audio I have. I'm going to order it right now. Thanks again. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Whatever you do, don't do what I did - That is buy a huge selection of books and courses.
I have a quite impressive book collection now and several gigs of ripped CDs on my pc. I reckon I may have got to page 20 in one of the books and even got to CD2 on one of the courses. I'd say - pick one product reccomeded by some of the experts here and stick with it. If you have too much option it's like having SKY TV - hundreds of channels but you just flick through them all...

Helpful information. I have been doing that. However, I can;t stick with a single thing. I like to do grammar and vocabulary workbooks as well simultaneously so I can defeat the monotony. I am about two chapters away from completely the 'Teach Yourself' book and I wanted to make sure I had this to go right in to. My problem now that I have found the right book (German with Ease - ISBN: 9782700501322) is that I can't find anywhere online that has it in stock. Everywhere I look has it on back-order. If anyone knows of an available site that actually has it I would be most appreciative. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

You can probably find the book (second-hand) at
http://www.abebooks.com/. There's no harm in using more than one resource. It can be very beneficial since you not only break the monotony but also get lots of repetition and get difficult points explained from slightly different angles. It is however a sound advice to stick to one source as your primary learning method. That way you'll keep up the progression and avoid never advancing past the first few lessons.

Does anyone happen to know why there is no English base-language German with Ease currently being offered on
the Assimil website? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I don't know. But, I ordered it from Amazon this weekend for me and my Mom. It is on a 1 to 2 month delivery. Hopefully by Mother's Day. Obviously not the most popular. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I don't know, but maybe they're going to release an English version of L'allemand, i.e. the 3rd generation of their German course soon..? 1 person has voted this message useful |
