ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Useful for intermediate students
~ Written on Apr 8, 2007. 7 out of 8 users found this review helpful.

This book is well written and clearly presented. There is a long section that reviews how different words are used in Arabic and provides a lot of information I haven't seen in other "textbooks". The section points out differences between English and Arabic usage which is helpful. The last section of the book focuses on grammar, which provides a useful review. I would recommend this book to someone who already is at a high- intermediate level of proficiency.
