I would like advice on which one to use for German, French and Spanish respectively. I
refer to the OLDER generations of both series (knowledge of generations according to Prof. Arguelles). Due to some reasons, unfortunately, I will only be able to get either set for each language. Do anyone have experience with them and can offer advice? Thank you. Edited by evol on 02 March 2013 at 1:08am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I much prefer Colloquial if I have done any prior study at all - but it depends on your starting point.

I resolve to order both.
Yeah, I don't actually know how the learning will proceed, nor do I really understand what's inside the materials and how they're different. I value you fellow's advice very much, and my money as well, but I now think otherwise, that as a beginner of auto-didactic language learning, it's not bad to invest more and spend more time to have access to a wider range of materials myself, so as to outweigh the disadvantage of little experience when learning the first three, and lay a better grounding in the selection of materials, by which, then, I can design the best program for myself and help the others. By the way, are there different generations of the "old" TYS and "old" Colloquial, as I call them? And do they have audio materials?
