Looking for Arabic Books to Learn Arabic? Learn from “Introducing Arabic” by Michael Mumisa and “Europe speaks Arabic” by V.Abdur

Introducing Arabic by Michael Mumisa and Europe speaks Arabic by V.Abdur Rahim aim at giving us an introduction to different aspects of Arabic.

 

Introducing Arabic presents some of the basic as well as advanced laws of Arabic in simple language and method. It is based on three celebrated classical sources; the Sharh Ibn Aqil by Ibn Aqil, Awdah al-Masalik by Ibn Hisham an-Nahwi and the Muqaddimah al-Ajrumiyyah by Ibn Ajrum. This book will benefit those who have just begun learning Arabic or are at an advanced stage of their studies. The book has an attractive blue cover.

 

This book has well defined chapters on grammar such as concepts of the noun, verb and particle in Arabic speech, different types of pronouns, nouns, agents and particles.

 

This book seeks to do away with the contradiction of learners being able to construct complex grammar rules but being unable to make simple sentences in Arabic. It adopts the approach that Arabic is an easy language but the teaching methods are not modern and need to be changed. As part of the method of teaching Arabic using modern methods it identifies five stages, namely, listening, speech, reading, writing and the stage of grammar laws.

 

This book therefore tries to make basic and advanced grammar rules reachable to the learner.

 

Europe speaks Arabic aims at making a catalogue of words in common between Arabic and European languages. This Islamic book shop through this Islamic book thus shows us the way in which Arabic has contributed to Europe. It is not a catalogue of words but is a lively discussion based on linguistic evidence, enriched with literary quotations and characterised by a regard and respect for each other’s culture and views. This book opens up new worlds of fascinating information in the domains of etymology, phonetic change and semantic development.

 

The table of contents is organised into important chapters on History, Mathematics, Astronomy, Entertainment and Amusement, Clothing, Fruits and Vegetables, Drinks, Alchemy, the Animal Kingdom etc.

 

This book attempts to tell readers of these common words in a non-technical manner. Only words recognized by European linguists as borrowings from Arabic and mentioned in reputed dictionaries are included in this book.

Various dictionaries have been consulted by the author such as The Oxford English Dictionary, The New Shorter Oxford English, Oxford Concise Dictionary of English, Webster’s New Universal Unabridged Dictionary, Chamber’s twentieth Century Dictionary and Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary.

 

These books thus give us an understanding of the structure of Arabic as well as its contribution to Europe.
