Customer Reviews:

 • Phonetics Misleading Substitute For Cd!
05 February, 2008

I hesitate to buy this or any non-Romance language book that doesn't include a recording of authentic vocalization of the text. I really like the fundamental concept of this book and the presentation looks great. However, I've learned by experience that anglo-phoneticization of Arabic so badly distorts the actual sound system that it can retard skills in speaking or listening! I spent the first several weeks of instruction under a native speaker unlearning habits developed through prior self-study using Jane Wrightwick's phoneticized "see and say" (see my review of her "First 100 Words in Arabic"). I believe she has since included a CD. I would admonish all authors of Arabic language instruction to include a CD accompanying the text - it's more than worth the extra cost to the student!
