This is the end of the EZ Arabic Course. It is my hope that you have benefited from this course. This course is provided free of charge with the intention of making learning Arabic easier for the English speaker. For this reason, although this work is copyrighted, I give permission for the reproduction of this course for free distribution or non-profit purpose as long as any of the material remains unchanged.

I am hopeful that those who complete this course will find it easier to study books in Arabic. For further study, the following books are recommended:

Sharh Ibn Aqeel ala Alfiah Ibn Malik - شرح ابن عقيل على ألفية ابن مالك - This is a great book and a must-have for those who want to study Arabic seriously. I recommend getting it in Arabic after you have learned the language enough to be able to read and understand it. The book is very simple, although at the beginning you may think that it is a bit hard to understand. I have found the book to be much easier to understand than other grammar books. (The book is actually an explanation of poetry written by Ibn Malik. Ibn Malik wrote the grammar rules in verse and this book explains the grammar verse by verse. It is truly a great book.)

Itihaaf al-tarf fee ‘ilm as-sarf اتحاف الطرف في علم الصرف - for the study of sarf which is the study of changes that take place within a word depending on the position of the word in the sentence.

Fee al-duroos al-nahwiyoon -

^it has been revised and corrected. I also had an Arabic teacher check it. some things were incorrect so those were corrected. I also added some things, including a section on qamari letters and shamsi letters.

the revised edition will be posted on facebook

This is wonderful, WRITER! I just found the thread and am working my way through it. I have actually switched to the FB page to start with the alif-baa and special vowels to start. If I make it to the end of what you have there so far, I will switch to the thread here.

If I could make a special request? I am not new to Arabic, having studied three semesters in college and then travelling for 3 weeks earlier this year, in Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt (for the elections). I have a little vocabulary to work with, but it is mostly dialect. Mashy. Eshta yaba! :) But the combination of learning the alif baa and the latinized pronounciation is key, especially when given some opportunity to practice with other arabic speakers. I caught a ride with a very nice Moroccan man and we were able to speak some sentences. Fursa said'a.

So, I would request you put more latinized phonetic spellings of the Arabic, for the first 20 lessons or so, to really drive the pronunciation of the alif baa home. That is a HUGE help.

Thanks VERY MUCH for all the wonderful efforts. May Allah Bless you.

:wa:
 
:sl:

Actually, does anyone know of a Arabic/English, English/Arabic dictionary that includes both the alif baa spellings and the latinized spellings of the Arabic?
 
:sl:

My apologies. You have actually added these pronounciations to many of the FB lessons. Thanks very much!!!!

:wa:
 
^thank you for your comments. the revised version of the course will have the transliteration for at least 10 lessons. Insha-Allah I will be posting more lessons on facebook, but it will take a while. I hope to post the next lesson soon.
