Levantine Arabic : Kameen Shwayy 'An Haali: Listening, Reading, And Expressing Yourself In Lebanese And Syrian Arabic

Kameen Shwayy 'An Haali ("A Little More About Myself") will be of tremendous help to independent language learners who want to develop their conversational skills and increase their Arabic vocabulary. Bonus Free audio tracks available to download and stream from www.lingualism.com. Very simply, Kameen Shwayy 'An Haali presents the results of a survey given to 10 Levantine Arabic speakers, five from Lebanon and five from Syria. Each of the 36 sections in the book begins with a question from the survey followed by the 10 responses and a breakdown of the vocabulary and concludes with a page where you are encouraged to give your own answer to the question using newly learned words and phrases. This book is the second of a two-part series. If you are not yet at an intermediate level of Levantine Arabic, it is advised that you complete the first book, Shwayy 'An Haali before moving on to Kameen Shwayy 'An Haali. The responses are typically somewhat longer than those in the first book. For more advanced learners, the texts appear again in the back of the book without voweling (tashkeel) or translations (Appendix B), to provide a more challenging reading experience without distractions. Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) translations of the texts are also given on each page for learners who are more proficient in MSA and can benefit from comparing the similarities and differences between it and Levantine Colloquial Arabic (LCA).
