 OOEN Store for Education :: German With Ease (Assimil Language Learning Programs, English Base)
Assimil, due to its scant drills, does a poor job of imprinting the patterns of the spoken language on the mind.
Assimil claims that you can "assimilate" a second language the way you assimilated your mother tongue.
This is truly assimilation, and the more time you spend studying the Assimil tapes and listening to the foreign radio, the faster you will learn, the more fun you will have, and the more motivated you will become to stick with it.

With a record number of interpretations, it has become one of the most performed plays in France.
The idea of the play came to Ionesco while he was trying to learn English with the Assimil method.

 -- Schengen sin esfuerzo --   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
*Assimil is an edition of foreign language skill books initiated in the 1940s by Alphonse Chérel which has remained popular, owing to its original method of adopting knowledge based on self-learning, daily reading, repetition of lessons, and listening to audio material.
An innovative part of this method is that learning is no longer based on understanding the grammatical dynamics of language as in previous methods, but on the memorization of complete phrases.
In the present time assimilation comes again to the center of attention, again in relation to traveling, displacements, but this time with its other meaning – referring to assimilation of immigrants in or from local communities of the present EU.
