Conversational German includes the first 16 lessons from the Comprehensive Level I, with eight hours of interactive audio-only, real-life instruction. The Pimsleur Method gives you quick command of German structure without tedious drills, presenting the whole language as one integrated piece so you can succeed. You'll receive lessons in grammar and vocabulary taught together in every conversation; interactive audio-only instruction; and 30-minute lessons designed to optimize the amount of language you can learn in one sitting!

German is the official language of Germany and Austria and is one of the official languages of Switzerland, Belgium, Lichtenstein, and Luxembourg. Nearly 100 million people speak German as their first language: about 77 million in Germany, 8 million in Austria, and 4.5 million in Switzerland.

German, Conversational

Pimsleur® equals success. Just one 30-minute lesson a day gets you speaking and understanding like no other program.

Dr. Paul Pimsleur devoted his life to language teaching and testing and was one of the world’s leading experts in applied linguistics. After years of experience and research, Dr. Pimsleur developed The Pimsleur Method based on two key principles:  the Principle of Anticipation and a scientific principle of memory training that he called "Graduated Interval Recall."  This Method has been applied to the many levels and languages of the Pimsleur Programs.
