Newly revised and packaged with DVDs containing both audio and video exercises, Alif Baa with DVDs: Introduction to Arabic Letters and Sounds, is the first part of the Al-Kitaab program. It teaches learners to recognize and produce both letters and sounds accurately through a variety of exercises designed to develop listening, reading, and writing skills. In addition, it introduces a range of Arabic from colloquial to standard in authentic contexts, video footage of an Arabic calligrapher, and a large collection of street signs from Morocco, Egypt, and Lebanon. In conjunction with learning how to read and write the alphabet, Alif Baa introduces about 150 basic vocabulary words, including conventional forms of politeness and social greetings. Standard Arabic vocabulary is more evenly distributed throughout the book, introduced through color pictures on DVD and activated through book and classroom exercises. Social greetings are introduced through new versions of dialogues that take place in an Egyptian context. Finally, Alif Baa includes capsules on Arab culture as well as an English-Arabic glossary. Alif Baa provides the essential first twenty to twenty-five contact hours of instruction that lay the groudwork for the rest of the Al-Kitaab language program.

Writing Arabic A Linguistic Approach From Sounds to Script

Writing Arabic: A Linguistic Approach From Sounds to Script

A brief narrative description of the journal article, document, or resource.
THE WRITING AND READING SYSTEM OF ARABIC IS PRESENTED IN A TEXT DEVELOPED ON THE BASIS OF LINGUISTIC THEORY AND THE PEDAGOGY OF TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGES. ARABIC WRITING IS RELATED TO ARABIC SOUNDS IN GRADED STEPS. THE ARABIC SOUNDS REPRESENT BOTH MODERN LITERARY ARABIC AND COLLOGUIAL ARABIC, IN THIS CASE THE CAIRENE ARABIC OF EDUCATED EGYPTIANS IN CAIRO. GRAMMATICAL NOTES ARE PROVIDED TO CLARIFY THE RELATIONS BETWEEN STRUCTURE AND SCRIPT. THE TEXT INCLUDES VISUAL AIDS IN THE FORM OF FRAMES AND DIAGRAMS. (KL)

A Programmed Course in Modern Literary Arabic Phonology Script

Programmed Course in Modern Literary Arabic Phonology Script


A brief narrative description of the journal article, document, or resource. This course is designed to teach the non-Arabic speaker to read printed Arabic, to write Arabic with "a pleasing hand," to distinguish accurately the phonological contrasts of modern literary Arabic, and to pronounce it in a manner easily comprehensible to Arabs. Dialogs and proverbs are included for reading practice; grammatical structures are not dealt with. The course may serve as an introduction to, or be used concurrently with, a basic course. Typical lessons present a set of letters related in form, plus certain auxiliary signs. For each letter or sign there are three sections: (1) its pronunciation value, with explanations and drills if it differs from or is lacking in English; (2) the various shapes of this letter in its printed form and drills in reading it; and (3) the written forms of the letter, also with practice drills. At the end of each unit there are review drills for the unit as a whole. The material is presented usually one small feature at a time, and the student proceeds at his own rate. Pronunciation features are recorded on tape as well as described phonetically. Answers to oral drills are on tape; written answers are given in the left margin of the following page.
