Amazon.com Audiobook Review
Look ma, no textbooks! The Learn in Your Car series treats you like a child--in the best possible way--starting with one-word phrases ("please," "good-by"), counting exercises, and simple nouns ("bus," "train") designed to imitate a child's learning process. First you hear the words in English, then they are repeated slowly in clear, unaccented pronunciations. The method is extremely effective for those who don't know a thing, or for those who want to brush up by testing themselves when the English words are spoken. The tapes emphasize the building blocks of communicating in a foreign country rather than rote phrases that only apply on the tape and not in real-life exchanges. Level 1 painlessly covers basic verb forms, essential prepositions, near future and past tenses, as well as shopping, hotel reservations, and other travel-related situations. The series includes French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, and Spanish in three levels that can be purchased individually or in boxed sets. Each level contains two 90-minute cassettes (or CDs) and an accompanying booklet (not for use behind the wheel) with helpful explanations and scripts for the lessons.
Book Description
Listeners learn pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar of a new language without the need of a textbook. Convenient to use while driving, working out... or anywhere! Includes zippered CD wallet carrying case.

Easier to use than earlier versions, but dislike new dating content May 9, 2008
I have "Learn in Your Car French" and "Learn in Your Car Italian" in earlier versions (when the French still used francs and the Italians still used lire). In those older versions, it's hard to tell when a CD gets to the last lesson and begins to repeat the first lesson. In this new version of "Learn in Your Car German," it is very easy to tell, because each CD begins with music.
The older French and Italian versions have translations of the same English sentences, but the newer German version has updated ones. The new sentences about computers are useful to me, but I could do without all the dating-related stuff!
Easy way of Refreshing February 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This product is very helpful to learn basic vocabulary and pronounce correctly. It is the easiest way to learn language since you can listen via CD's as walking or traveling, but one important thing is you have to have (or priorly had) a basic lesson on that language. In other words, you must not start learning with these CD's. In my opinion, starting from zero trying to learn with those CD's can be both very very hard and misleading since you may not use in the correct place or have a comprehensive understanding of the vocabulary. Besides, you have to read and look at the typing of the words (not only listening would be enough)to be able to write in German. In case you have a beginner level knowledge or currently take German courses, this product would be much more beneficial to refresh your mind and correct your pronounciation.
 A way to practice December 15, 2007

The Learn in your car German is great when teamed up with a little mp3 player because it allows you to practice while doing other things that do not require your full attention such as mowing or just walking.

I am very happy with the CD's for learning German in my car. The diction is clear. The pauses between words and phrases are comfortable.
I have a college minor in german which has been in the back of my brain since 1976. I'm listening to the 2nd CD and delighted with the memories I am pulling up to consciousness.

This is a good way to learn German. It is the way a child learns to speak. You hear the words, then learn sentences. It is still not an over night learning, you have to practice, but it does seem easier than the way I was thought in school. It is a very good refresher course.
