Hello,

Thank you very much for your interest in our publications.
We are sorry to inform you that we do not plan any course to learn Armenian as an English speaker.

Best regards.
Nathalie FROEHLY

I interpret that as some sort of divine message it's about time I learnt some French.

Israel is pretty high-tech; a lot of people do business in Tel Aviv. Hebrew would be an asset then.

Has anyone had a look at the new Portuguese course yet? I'm wondering if it's a
completely new course or just an updated version of the previous one.

I have the new Portuguese course. It is a minor update of the previous Le nouveau Portugais sans peine. Most texts are the same. What is new is the word list at the end of the book, plus some texts from the review lessons (7, 14, etc.) are now recorded.

According to the Assimil FB page:

Le perfectionnement allemand vient de paraître ! http://www.assimil.com/descriptionProduitDetail.do?paramIdPr oduit=3748

A paraître d'ici la fin de l'année, une nouvelle édition du Hongrois, et une édition totalement rafraîchie de l'Indonésien.

I'm looking forward to the new, revised edition of Indonesian, because the first one got so many bad reviews.

Reading about all the new languages and new additions that Assmil is coming out with, I
wonder if I should hurry up and buy what's on my wish-list now, or wait. After reading so
much about how Linguaphone, Assimil, etc have dumbed-down their materials it's hard to
know what newer versions will look like.

Assimil is posting extracts on Soundcloud so hopefully that will give us some idea of the
direction they are going. http://soundcloud.com/assimil

For me a new edition represents an opportunity to review the A1-A2 levels without having to go through the same lessons again. That is, considering there are 3 different texts for Russian in French, I'd first go through one of them, then another, instead of reviewing the same book (bear in mind I only do one wave, which is active, regardless how it does bad to my reading skills).
