Mastering Arabic Grammar

A highly illustrated and popular reference and activity book which is divided into two parts: basic grammar and verbs. The book reinforces and expands the structures and vocabulary presented in Mastering Arabic 1 and is the ideal companion to this popular course. However the clear structural explanations and practice activities make it a perfect companion for any taught or self-teach course. There are optional extra sections with explanations and activities covering the grammatical case endings used in formal, literary and religious Arabic.
Aimed at beginners or early intermediate learners of Arabic, Mastering Arabic Grammar is ideal for both self-study use and classroom courses.

Authors Jane Wightwick and Mahmoud Gaafar share many years' experience in a combination of teaching, educational publishing and communication in the Arab world.
