Al-Kitab Al-Asasi: Fi Ta'lim Al-Lugha Al-'Arabiya Li-Ghayr Al-Natiqin Biha. Al-Mu'jam Al-Musa'id (Lexicon) [Arabic]

By Abdellatif Abid and Abdellatif Abid et al.

This three-part course in Modern Standard Arabic for non-native speakers approaches the language through a series of themed topics--daily life in the Arab world, politics and governance, literature and the arts, science and medicine, astronomy--concentrates principally on listening and speaking skills. In each section, vocabulary is built up as various linguistic structures and strategies are introduced and practiced in a clear introduction to Arabic grammar. A CD accompanies Volume 1, and a supplementary dictionary, al-Mu'jam al-musa'id, gives a complete key to the vocabulary of all three books in four languages: English, French, German, and Spanish. Comprehensive and easily digestible, varied and informative, these books make an ideal basis for a classroom-based course in Arabic anywhere in the world.
