Owing to the repetitive manner in which the audio lesson materials are presented, the resulting transcripts (that is, the full English and German texts) made for excruciating reading, so much so that I concluded that the exercise of preparing them had been a serious waste of my time. The time it me took to listen to the audio tracks (listening, stopping, typing, restarting, stopping, back-tracking, typing, and so on) was truly enormous and absolutely out of proportion to any value that I could have gained from actually using the transcripts for review purposes.Ģ. I have copied/pasted the text below from one of my posts in this forum of May, 2016.ġ.

Nevertheless, preparing the transcript did teach me something about the usefulness of such materials. I had no intention of sharing it with anyone and I have never done so ultimately, I destroyed all copies of it. Finally, my understanding of the Forum Rules is that the open discussion, in this forum, of the unauthorized copying or exchanging of copyrighted materials could be viewed by the Monitors as contravening said rules.Ĭoming back to the Pimsleur program and the subject of transcripts, some years ago, I prepared a full transcript of Pimsleur German I, II, III for my own personal use. The publisher does, indeed, monitor the Internet, including this language forum. Furthermore, the publisher considers the publication of such materials to be a violation of its copyright and is prepared to take legal action against anyone circulating said transcripts. Simon & Schuster, the current holders of the copyrights to the Pimsleur method, does not supply “transcripts” of its programs. I’m sorry, but there has been a slight misunderstanding here, for which I bear the entire responsibility. However, I have to admit that more than a few times I have had the urge to visualize the spoken words in the Pimsleur course.Īs an aside, my two recurring weaknesses are 1) Quickly recalling the correct verb before infinitives (can, go, do), and 2) using tienes instead of tengo about half the time (probably because I identify with the male speaker?) Since these are "unofficial", how might they be used? I do plan to start a different course in the near future (maybe ), probably a 1960s Linguaphone and/or a "bird's eye grammar overview" text. Speakeasy had mentioned that there are some transcripts available, at least for the first level. I believe that I am at Pimsleur's 80% target, may be a bit higher, so I plan to move on to Spanish II when the CDs arrive. I did manage to listen to at least one lesson on Saturdays and Sundays. I have now completed the first level on my daily commutes, 16 lessons in about 21 days.the first ten or so lessons twice a day, the latter six more like two days each. In another thread about laddering, I mentioned that I was starting with Pimsleur Spanish (fortunately I have access to library copies, at least for the first two or three levels).
