Arabic From The Beginning (Part One)

Arabic from the Beginning: Part One: Imran Hamza Alawiye

10A

With the help of this book, students will be able to read and write vowelised Arabic text and be well on their way to mastering modern standard Arabic. By the time the book ends, students can:

List all the Arabic letters in both their separated and combined forms.

Understand how to interpret vowel sounds, particularly the diphthongs "ay" and "ow," and the distinction between long and short vowel sounds.

Examine the roles of Shadda and Su Koon.

While the primary purpose of this work is for classroom use, self-taught learners can also benefit greatly from it.

This workbook assumes that you have no prior knowledge of Arabic. Every new topic is introduced with a clear, concise explanation. It is accompanied by many exercises and activities, which help ensure quick development and reinforce the learning process. High-quality colour illustrations and colour coding are used to highlight each topic under discussion and provide reading and writing practice. Additionally, dictation activities are included to track the development of the learners.

By the end of the book, students should be proficient enough in reading and writing Arabic scripts to move on to part two of the course, where they will learn Arabic grammar and vocabulary and start speaking this crucial language for communication across borders.
