PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

This complete pack (book and cassette) teaches the modern standard Arabic which is the universal language of the Arab world, understood by all the Arabic speakers. It is also the language of almost all written material, formal TV programmes, talks etc.

This stand-alone, all-audio course can be used by those who have little or no knowledge of the language, by those who want to learn or brush up basic conversation skills, and by more advanced learners who require extra audio material to complement their current courses. Egyptian and Iraqi voices are used on the recording, so this course can be used with confidence by visitors to the Levant and Gulf areas. Indications are also given of where North African usage diverges. The ten units or 'conversations' cover the situations you are most likely to find yourself in while on holiday or on business abroad. They are divided into two parts, with a dialogue in each part. The dialogue in Part 2 reuses the vocabulary and phrases from Part 1 in a slightly different context. Both parts start with an introduction to the words and phrases you'll need, followed by the dialogue. Finally it's 'Over to you': you take part in the same dialogues following the English prompts, playing all the roles in turn. So you get lots of opportunity to practise! Frequent track markers divide the CDs up into short, easy-to-use clips. Vocabulary and phrases in the first two CDs are kept to the basics and are introduced gradually with lots of opportunity to repeat and practise, to improve your confidence in both speaking and understanding. The third CD concentrates on helping you improve your understanding, so that you will be able to hold two-way conversations with people who speak very fast or use words and phrases you do not know. The course comes on three 75-minute CDs and has an accompanying 48-page booklet which gives the dialogues and the translations of the dialogues, for those who like to see the written word or want additional practice. The Arabic is transliterated into romanized script. The booklet also provides a basic glossary of the words and phrases used. This is the perfect complement to 'Teach Yourself Arabic', 'Teach Yourself Gulf Arabic' and 'Teach Yourself Beginner's Arabic Script'.
