Is there a transcript or a word list anywhere I could get it? My googling failed.
Please, don't start explaining how it is awesome and the purpose of the program to let me blindly parrot sounds that I cannot see. I've read a lot about it in most links that responded to the words. And I don't give a damn because I need to use a tool the way it helps me. Consulting a simple word list once for each unclear word would make a world of difference to me. What is the trouble: I love the Pimsleur's way to teach me hands free and a lot of things about it. But I absolutely need to see a word to learn it. Without it, I don't know whether I am saying the same word as the audio or just parroting a sound that doesn't make any sense in reality despite sounding similar. And I cannot remember it at all. I tried to use five dictionaries to discover the words for "quite" and "very" from Unit 3 (repeated now in Unit 4). I failed. Online dictionaries, an offline ipad dictionary, a large paper dictionary. All failed. They found several translations of each but not the words I hear in Pimsleur. I checked with Forvo to make sure. Please, could anyone save me with such a transcript? Or at least unstuck me by telling me what those two stupid mystery words are? ("quite" sounds to me like "lachtet" which is nonsense) My brain is getting confused and angry instead of relaxed and easy learning due to this fault of design. I don't want to turn it into another Assimil by following the transcript and audio at once. I just want to see the word I cannot imagine. :-( 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Let's see...
quite: lite (from your description, this might be it), ganska, måttligt, lagom; perhaps lätt in some contexts very: mycket, väldigt, ytterst Edited by sans-serif on 26 September 2013 at 4:58pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

Yes! Väldigt could be it. I imagined quite well the first half of the word, not the end. And lite is likely to be the one that I couldn't find anywhere. I rechecked one of the five dictionaries already and it really isn't there.
Thanks a lot for saving me! Now I feel like finishing the Unit 4 :-) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

It feels like Christmas! Thanks a lot.
I don't know, perhaps google is nolonger the best search engine for all use as it sorts out the results of searches too much. 1 person has voted this message useful |
