Idioms are deeply rooted in their cultural context and as such are both are uniquely tricky and key to competency in a language. With more than 140 of frequently used Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) idioms, this book is a key learning tool for intermediate to advanced learners of the language. Organized by theme into eight chapters, each idiom includes an English translation or equivalent expression and a short bilingual dialogue to show the idiom used in context. Each unit ends with a set of exercises to practice usage and aid in language acquisition. Mastering Modern Standard Arabic Idioms is designed to be a flexible resource, and as such could be adopted in a classroom setting or employed in self-study, and will be of interest to students of language, literature, and culture, as well as to translators and linguists.Languages:EnglishPublisher:American University in Cairo PressISBN-13:9781649034212ISBN-10:1649034210UPC:9781649034212Book Category:Foreign Language Study, Language Arts & DisciplinesBook Subcategory:Arabic, Study & TeachingSize:9.00 x 6.00 x 0.44 inchesWeight:0.63Product ID:SC7C45NZ8D
