I am trying to find the audio for Assimil's discontinued Using Spanish book. The book I have is dated 1996. I realize that the English translation is considered problematic but I will still have a go at using it once I am done with Spanish with Ease.
I believe the audio from "Perfectionnement Espagnol" should be the same, but is the one being sold by Assimil at this moment the same edition and text as the 1996 Using Spanish edition?
I am basically trying to get the audio that would fit with my 1996 edition of Assimil Using Spanish.
Thanks.

Do a search for assimil using Spanish 1996 and a link below will turn up to download the audio. I believe the audio is hard to find for that edition. I have got a copy just waiting for delivery.
How are you getting on with Spanish with ease? What lesson are you on.
Regards, Mike.

You can have a taste of the new edition (Perfectionnement Espagnol, in French) by dowloading the software demo
from Assimil French website.
By the way, it is a very good way to try other languages too.

I've got Using Spanish in English and French and the Perfectionnement Espagnol are identical. 60 Units. Same dialogues from the Spanish perspective.

Haziz, it can be found. From what I have heard, the audio and text for both the French and English-translated versions are identical.
I am using the course now- I sort of second guessed it at first, some of the poor translation quality withstanding and this would not be an issue in the French edition- but it is an excellent course and the content is interesting.
I'm using it as my main-intermediate level textbook.

I can't remember who I've told so apologies if all
of you already know but I suggest you try posting
on www.forum.language-learners.org as you might get
a few more answers. Of course this site is still in
use but due to various technical issues an
alternative forum was set up and is a lot more
active than this one.
