Yes - L'Espagnol (2004) and Spanish (2014) - both with the cube (one box containing two
windmills) design cover - have the same audio and Spanish text.

Assimil has sample lessons on Sound Cloud. If
anyone has their older courses it should be easy to compare them.

The new English based German Assimil has finally arrived!!!
Finally. I'm so excited. Just ordered my copy! For anyone else interested, it is the
update of the 2004 French based version. Same audio.

Oh, and it is cheaper for the book alone to be purchased on Amazon if you are ordering
from the US:

Excellent! Please let us know about it once it arrives. Is it actually a substantial re-write, or just a minor editing job. Of course, the texts won't change much, but I would hope for different notes and revision chapters.

Will do, Jeffers. I don't have the French version to compare to. I had the PDF of it at
one point, but lost it.
We can just hope that getting the re-write to explain German grammar and such to English
speakers was the reason for the big delay!

I have the French version (which I have done in 'passive' wave form) and the English
version on order from Assimil - I'll give you an update when it arrives (hopefully in
the next few days).

Very kind of you, ELexi. I am excited because this will be the first Assimil course for
a language I never studied in any way during school. Should be fun to see how it goes.
