Subject: Adjectives and Nouns

Dear Mike,

  In principle the Arabic language does not have on the morphological level a
word class called adjective, we have in Arabic "Sifa mushabbaha" instead. On
the other hand your example "Al-Arabeyya" is a relational noun (Nesba)that is
used mostly as an Adjective, not originally an adjective. So "Al-Arabeyya" in
the sentence is an Adjective but out of the context it is a Mansub Noun.
Sometime, this kind of Nouns is a common noun (according to my opinion in
building my tagset for Arabic POS taggeing). For example the word
"Al-?irhaabeyy" 'terrorist' in a sentence like "Al3amalu Al?irhaabeyyu" is an
adjective while in a sentence like "Al?irhaabeyyu qama bi 3amaliyatin
xaTiratin" is a common noun.

Subject: Language and Migration Call For Papers

Call for papers

Contributors are cordially invited to present papers at the conference:

LANGUAGE, MIGRATION AND THE CITY

to be held at the University of Bayreuth, Germany

from 22 November - 23 November, 2001

Abstracts (up to 300 words) by 15 September, 2001 to:
jonathan.owens at uni-bayreuth.de

The methodological and theoretical basis of the colloquium will center
on urban sociolinguistics, with an emphasis on corpus-based approaches.
Contrastive perspectives are particularly welcome.

A non-exhaustive list of topics includes:

- language in the West vs. Third World
- migrants moving into an established dominant culture vs. migrants
moving into an urban culture in the making
- city with dominant standard language vs. city where no standard
language has effective normative force

- integration of second lg speakers vs. integration of multidialectal
speakers
- contrasts between older, established multilingual communities vs.
those arising through recent immigration
- influence of urban varieties on rural areas
- urban-urban migration

Specific linguistic issues include the following:

- Koinization, standardization, development of prestige varieties
- Language repertoires, styles, codeswitching
- language and social networks
- Language contact, shift, maintenance and death
- Vitality measures (should the state of available information warrant
such)

It is intended that contributions will be published in a refereed
sociolinguistics series.

From: Munther A. Younes" <may2 at cornell.edu>
Subject: New Book for Intermediate and Advanced Arabic

Spoken Language Services, Inc. announces the publication of Tales
from Kalila wa Dimna for Students of Arabic by Munther A. Younes.
This is an expanded version of  Tales from Kalila wa Dimna: An Arabic
Reader, published by Yale University Press in 1989.Kalila wa Dimna, a
well-known Arabic literary classic, on which the present volume is
based, is an eighth-century translation of a collection of fables
about people and animals that has long been enjoyed by Arab children
and adults alike. In this illustrated rendition, Younes retells these
fables in simplified language for intermediate and advanced students
of Arabic.  Each story is accompanied by an illustration and  a set
of activities geared towards enhancing students' reading and
listening comprehension as well as their speaking and writing skills.
The book can be used in a classroom or for independent study.  The
three CD's that accompany it include the texts of the stories read by
the author.  A comprehensive glossary at the end of the book includes
all the words that were judged to be difficult or new for the
intermediate-level student.
The book can be particularly effective as a vocabulary building tool.
For the most part, the stories in it focus on a limited number of
themes and a limited set of characters or character types.
Consequently, much of the vocabulary is recycled from one story to
another, which facilitates acquisition and active use.
The material is also an effective confidence-building tool. From the
point of view of comprehension, stories are easier to understand than
groups of isolated sentences or a descriptive passage, because of the
presence of a context and a story line. In a story, the reader or
listener can predict or guess the meaning of unfamiliar words and
structures.  In terms of speaking, telling a story with a clear
structure, both thematically (a beginning, an end,  and a defined
plot), and grammatically (in which mainly the simpler perfect form of
Arabic verbs is used) is easier than other types of speaking
exercises, particularly at the intermediate or lower intermediate
level, when students' command of the language is still limited.
Five of the forty-six stories in the book are given in their original
form as they appear in unedited versions of Kalila wa Dimna in order
to give advanced students a feel for Classical Arabic and the ways in
which it differs from Modern Standard Arabic.  In two of the five
stories,  a simplified version appears along with the unedited
version for purposes of  comparison.
Although this edition is aimed primarily at students of high school
age and above, who will appreciate the allegorical sense of the
stories, younger readers may enjoy them for their literal value.
Munther Younes is a senior lecturer in Arabic language and
linguistics at Cornell University. His other publications include
Elementary Arabic: An Integrated Approach and Intermediate Arabic: An
Integrated Approach, both published by Yale University Press.

Would others recommend this, or an alternative? Unfortunately, cost

	Dr. Salim has gone through serious medical examinations in the last
few weeks and has been admitted to University of Michigan hospital. Salim
is a dear friend and generous colleague to many in this list. I am sure
that he has many friends and colleagues who care and who would have been
upset if they did not know. I just came back from a short visit to him and
it seems that he would be in the hospital for sometime. Anyone in his place
would appreciate a form of expression of concern and hopes for speedy
recovery. Please remember him in your prayers, may God bless you all.

Thanks for posting Muhammad Eissa's kind message regarding Salim's state of
health.
All of us who have come to know Salim are quickly reminded of his high
enthusiasm for the TAFL profession, for his good leadership qualities, and
scholarship. His collaboration with Prof. Roushdy in organizing a nicely
done symposium at Wayne State a couple of years ago is well remembered. We
join in thought and prayer that his regains his good health and soon return
to his classes and other activities.

Here is wishing you well Salim! Salaamtek! Best and speedy recovery!

Dear colleagues and friends
I have been visiting Salim for the past two days, and have answered
some of your calls.  Your concern has touched him, but he does not
want to answer the phone. As a matter of fact the ringing irritates
him. It would be nice if you could drop him a card instead.
We will keep you all posted of his condition.

Salam All,
I'm looking for some references on Arabic language consonant classes. What I
know is that Arabic has three categories: Plain, Emphatic, and Geminate. Are
there references grouping these consonants and giving their properties? Can
anybody come up with minimal pairs?
Thanks

Diversity in Language: Contrastive Studies in English and Arabic
Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
Edited by Zeinab Ibrahim, Nagwa Kassabgy, and Sabiha Aydelott
U.S. Publication Date: February 2001
ISBN: 977 424 578 4
$ 29.50 (cloth)  256 pp.   6 x 9 

The Arabic and English languages have developed along separate lines
over the centuries.  Thus, it is no surprise that even apart from
purely cultural elements, there are distinctive characteristics of
the two languages that pose particular problems to native speakers
one of one language attempting to learn the other.  Diversity in
Language: Contrastive Studies in English and Arabic Theoretical and
Applied Linguistics ($ 29.50, 256 pp.) offers new views on the
contrasts between Arabic and English and on contemporary theoretical
and applied linguistics as well as sociolinguistics.

Edited by Zeinab Ibrahim, Nagwa Kassabgy, and Sabiha Aydelott,
Egyptian scholars affiliated with the American University in Cairo,
the papers in this volume, focus on four main topics ­ the
distinctive features of the Arabic language, comparative studies
between Arabic and English, style and form, and attitudes and
comprehension ­ of English and Arabic linguistics and teaching.
Written by an international panel of linguists and writers, the
contributors to Diversity in Language were participants in the First
International Conference on Contrastive Rhetoric, held at the
American University in Cairo in 1999.

The book discusses distinctive features that make the Arabic language
especially difficult for English speakers to understand fully and
intuitively.  Comparative studies of English and Arabic, including
research on the acquisition of Arabic or English as a second
language, underscore the concept of diversity.  Contributors also
investigative stylistics, a major source of diversity between the two
languages.  Practical observations and suggestions will help teachers
of Arabic and English as a second language enable students to better
understand their second language and become more persuasive and
effective in using it. 

Diversity in Language is a welcome addition to the bookshelves of
scholars and students of Arabic, contrastive rhetoric, and
lingustics.  Teachers of English as a foreign language, even if their
students are not primarily from an Arab-speaking background, will
likewise benefit from the insights made in these contrastive
students.   

The American University in Cairo Press is celebrating its 40th year
as the Middle East¹s leading English-Language publisher.  Books are
available  through Books International (703) 661-1570 in the U.S. and
via Eurospan in Europe.  For further information on Diversity in

Subject: AMIR University experience

Regarding AMIR University's Arabic program:

Yes, unfortunately I have to recommend against the AMIR courses. My
experience was very disappointing.  I signed up for a single session of
Intermediate-I to supplement my home studies.  I asked them for a
detailed description of the curriculum several times but all they gave me
was a page that stated that the course is based around newspaper articles
but gave no further information.  Thinking that current, authentic
material is exactly what I need to supplement my studies I signed up for
the course but I was disappointed to find the following:

1)  The "newspaper articles" are really not current "newspaper" items,
just short essays much like can be found in EMSA and others.

2)  The course is "structured" as follows :  student reads the article,
and if there is a word or phrase the student doesn't know, one simply
holds the cursor over the word and the word and phrase will appear in
translation in the bottom frame.  Following the reading, students do a
number of exercises including general comprehension and one called
"grammar analysis" although it is merely a multiple choice and there is
no attempt to actually teach any grammar, style, writing, speaking,
listening, or anything.  In fact, there is no form of direct instruction
whatsoever.  There are no instructions or explanations of any kind.  It
reminds me of the series Al-9arabiyyah li n-naashi?iin, however that
series is meant to be used in conjunction in a dynamic setting with a
teacher, not in isolation as the AMIR web course is intended.

Incidentally, the course is strictly web-based and the student is not
supplemented with any other materials or books.  There is a list of
translations of grammar terms on the site, but again, nothing to directly
instruct or otherwise guide the student.  In short, there is no goal to
each lesson aside from understanding the content of the reading, and this
is achieved by simply holding the cursor over the words and receiving
translation of each sentence in the bottom frame.

3)  As other students also commented on the student message board, the
tests seem to be merely a test of how well the student memorized the
reading.  As there is no instruction in grammar, style, writing,
speaking, listening, or anything, this is likewise reflected in the test.

The AMIR Arabic courses are actually through the Arab Academy.   I have
discovered that the AMIR university may be quietly connected to the
As-Sunnah Foundation of America which is run by "Shaykh" Hisham
Kabbani--the AMIR program and Kabbani's endeavors share some staff
members.  AMIR stands for American Mercy Institute for Information and
Research and I imagine the AMIR university is an attempt to fund and
promote a very problematic organization, that is, ASFA. However, I am
unaware of any direct connection between the AMIR university and the Arab
Academy aside from thir endorsement of Arab Academy's Arabic program.
You will find all of the information at http://www.arabacademy.com

My humble opinion is that the Arab Academy program, at least at the
Intermediate level,  is a program still in development, because what is
offered is only one piece of what should be a much broader curriculum. It
seems that, although they have clearly articulated their goals for the
Beginner program, they are unsure of their goals beyond that.
Personally, I think it should be suspended until the curriculum is more
complete.  To their credit, though, the staff and the program developer
were very helpful and understanding and promptly gave me a refund,
although the $35 registration fee is non-refundable.

Subject: Farewell Salim

Dear All friends and colleagues:

     This is a message I do not ever wish to announce about anyone.
Nevertheless, someone has to do it. My dear colleague and friend Aleya
Rouchdy of Wayne State university shares with me relating the following
lines to all of you.

     Our dear friend, dedicated colleague and sincere teacher Salim Khaldieh
has passed away today, Tuesday April 10 at 3:00 P.M. While in the hospital.
It is a great loss to all of us in many respects and it is a much greater
loss to his family and his students who loved him very dearly. Before
departing this world, Salim has touched the hearts of many of us. He has
intrusted us with so much of his witty spirit and original humor. Many of
us who shared happy moments with him will miss his animated style of
narration and his smart citation of authentic idiomatic expressions. Salim
will be remembered for so much and we will make sure that his memory will
not be buried with his body.

     As many of his close friends know, he was very proud of who he is and
where he comes from. In honor of this pride, his family has decided to bury
him in his homeland, Lebanon. However, those who live in the Detroit area
and its vicinity may pay the last respect to his body between 11:00 A.M.
and 6:00 P.M. in the following address:

                     NIE Funeral Home,
                     2400 Carpenter Rd.
                     Ann Arbor, MI

                     Phone: (734)971-2345

     In commemorating and perpetuating the legacy of Salim, Wayne State
University has established a fund for a special scholarship in Salim's
name.  Any donation towards the fund can be mailed to:

                     Dr. Aleya Rouchdy,
                     Department of Near Eastern and Asian Studies,
                     Wayne State University,
                     Manoogian Hall,
                     Detroit,  MI 48202

      Tax deductible checks should be made payable to:

               WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY - SALIM KHALDIEH FUND

     Let's remind ourselves of all the good memories we have of each other.
May God protect you and your loved ones.

I would like to respond to Umm Zaynab as follows:
1.  Students' Critique
We greatly appreciate our students' critique and we strongly encourage it.
It is through their criticism that we improve our online courses and
material.
Umm Zaynab was one of our first students at the Intermediate level.  She
dropped out after a week and sent us a long E-mail outlining what she
disliked.  Her comments led to major enhancements to the course.  We are
grateful to her for that.
As a matter of fact, we have students' boards where our students discuss the
courses.  All praise and criticism are left there for everybody to read.
Not a singly comment was every removed.  We are proud of our students and
strive to meet their needs and expectations.

2.  AMIR:
The Arab Academy is a privately owned non-religious institution.  Its online
courses and material are being used by non-religious as well as by religious
institutions.  Please check out our list of partners from:
http://arabacademy.com/partners_list_e.htm
None of our partners, and this includes AMIR, ever interfered with the
content of the courses.  After all, please remember that the Arab Academy
offers courses in Arabic language - not in religion.
On the other hand, I found AMIR's administrative staff always attentive to
the needs of their students.  They are to be praised for their sincere
efforts at using the latest technology in the dissemination of knowledge.

3.  New Wave of Learning
In the 20th century we all studied through books.  Now online interactive
courses are being used as well.  This is done in addition to books or
instead of them, depending on many parameters.
In general, universities that have ongoing Arabic language program,
subscribe to the Arab Academy's Resource Center.  They use the interactive
material as supplementary material to their textbooks.  Below is a link to
the material offered:
http://arabacademy.com/Subscription_Resource_Center.htm
Universities that do not have an Arabic Language Program partner with us and
offer Arabic to their students.  Below is a list of course offerings:
http://arabacademy.com/main/online/registrar_e.shtml
We hope that these efforts would make learning Arabic easier and more
accessible to everybody.

4.  Research Opportunities
The Arab Academy is aware that it is a pioneer in the field of online
learning.  We are very willing to help researchers study this experience and
compare it to traditional methods.  Prepare your questionnaires and we will
ask our students to fill them out for you.
Best regards
Sanaa Ghanem

Dr. Salim Khaldieh, assistant professor at WSU, has passed away on
April 10, 2001 at the age of 44.    Services and burial were in
Lebanon.

Dr. Khaldieh taught in the Department of Near Eastern and Asian
studies at WSU for the past four years.  A  most dedicated teacher,
he  recently received the College of Liberal Arts Teaching Award. He
had recently completed and submitted for publication a manuscript on
the teaching of Arabic as a second language.

He played a major role in the development and recruitment of students
in the Department of Near Eastern and Asian Studies.  He
relentlessly worked with students, and developed new teaching
materials to suit the needs of a diverse student body.  He never
hesitated to teach overload courses in order to satisfy the needs or
our students and his students enjoyed discussing all aspects of
Arabic with him and learned a great deal from his expertise and
insights.

³ Salim was the perfect colleague,²  said Dr. Aleya Rouchdy, chair of
the Department of Near Eastern and Asian Languages.   ³His services
to the Department were numerous. He was always available beyond his
regular duty hours to help us or advise our students.  I will always
remember his animated style of narration, his constant citation of
humorous idiomatic expressions, and his warm laughter.  We will miss
him as a colleague, but above all we will miss Salim as a dear young
friend.²

The Salim Khaldieh  Scholarship  has been established by the
Department of Near Eastern and Asian Languages to assist students in
the study of Arabic Language and Culture.  Contributions may be made
payable to ³Wayne State University²,  with the notation Salim
Khaldieh Fund, and mailed to the Department at Room 437 Manoogian
Hall, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI 48202.

There are 1917 triliteral roots, of which 153 are "doubled" (R2=R3), and
557 are "weak" (they contain the letters waw or ya, but exclude
"doubled" roots such as w-d-d). I attach 3 files with all these roots
(triliteral doubled weak). If you'd like a copy (since attachments
aren't posted) let me know. I extracted the data using the list of roots
on my website:

Subject: For Salim

Dear Colleague,
We are all saddened indeed shocked with the news about our dear friend and
colleague Salim Khaldieh. I have no better words to describe Salim than those
written by Aleya Rushdy and Mohamed Eissa.
I have known Salim through working at Middlebury College for several summers,
and always enjoyed seeing him in conferences.
As we all know Salim loved his job, indeed adored (9ashiqa) it, we know
how dedicated he was to the profession. He also loved to write poetry, he used
to come every day saying "Samia, 'isma9ii dii" and if I complained he would
say in his always cheerful manner, "aren't you my sister? You should encourage
me" and he would recite what he has written.
One of his favorite poem is "Salaatu 9aashiqin" and he was the "9aashiq".
Let us all join now in a prayer for Salim in a " Salaatun li9aashiqin",
" Salim, raHmatu Allaah 9aleek, nas'al Allah ta9aala 'an yudxilaka jannatu.
May you rest in peace. You will always be missed".

Arabic (capable*) Windows system, OE should be either the Arabic version 4

  Does anyone know of works which apply any of the following
linguistic methodologies to the classification of Arabic dialects as
a whole:

1. lexicostatistics/glottochronology
2. historical linguistic cladistics, based on shared innovations
3. dialect geography.

I am not interested in general opinions (published or unpublished)
about dialect classification. I am not interested in classifications
based on practical and intuitive notions of mutual comprehension or
on known history. And I am also not asking about dialect atlases for
individual countries. I am only asking for specific references to
published works which rigorously try to apply one or more of the
above methods to the classification of the whole Arabic dialect area.

If you know of any such works, I'd be most grateful for your reply.

From: "Sattar.Izwaini at stud.umist.ac.uk" <mcuijsi2 at fs1.ccl.umist.ac.uk>
Subject: Translation of Terms response

Regarding translation query by Bugeja Alan John:

i) Fleet (as in a fleet of cars, vehicles): ?usTool ; surba
One important thing to think about is collocation. To have a fleet of
cars, vehicles in Arabic is to have ?ustul sayaarat or markabaat.
But the Arabic collocation is different when you have another
collocate.
The word surba (or rather sirb) on the other hand, collocates with
Tuyour (birds) as well as other bird species, Taa?iraat (planes),
muqaatilaat (fighters). So it is not a good choice, unless of
course in a translation of a creative writing.

ii) Global Satellite Positioning: taHdiid al-mawqiC b-iCtimaad al-
aqmaar al-SinaaCiyya
Technical expressions need to be traced to thier actual reference
whether itis an object, process or abstract notion. At the same
time one needs to conceptulize the meaning of the expression
rather than looking for lexical equivalents for thier individual lexical
components.
Dose it actually means 'detecting or tracing postions'? If it does,
then the translation is OK, but the notion of being 'global' is
missied. Note that 'global' modifies tahdiid as being Caam or
shaamil. I would suggest putting mawqiC in plural.
The rendition is rather long for a term. I would suggest deleting
b-iCtimmad and attach the prepostion bi to al-aqmaar.
The term would be: al-taHdiid al-shaamil lil-mawaaqiC bil-aqmaar al-SinaaCiyya

iii) Keypad : *daftar mafaatiiH
The same discussion above applies here. What is a 'keypad'? Is it a
kind of key holder or key panel? According to Cambridge Internationa
Dictionary of English, it is 'a small set of keys with numbers on
them that is part
of a device for changing television
stations, or the keys on a calculator, on the right side of a
computer keyboard, etc.' The usual translation of Keyboard is
lawHat mafatiiH. This has the same meaning of keypad in the
romote control device. Any how, daftar mafaatiiH is a wrong
rendition because daftar is referring to a book, a notebook, a note
pad etc. If a keypad is an entrance security device, the part of the
remote control or the like then it is lawaht ?arqaam.

iv) Real Time reporting : *iHDaar al-taqaariir al-waaqiCiyyat al-
zaman
Real time refers to dealing with and using new information
immediately and therefore
influence or direct the actions of the objects supplying that
information.
Reporting is a process, not an object, so it is not taqaariir. It is
rather naql, tabliigh or ?iblagh, tawSiil or ?iSaal. The context is
significant. If it is a process carried out by a computer, I would
suggest: al-naql al-?aany (lil-maClumaat). If it is carried out by a
human, I would suggest: al-?iblagh al-fawry.
You need to know the macrocontext of the expression.

Good luck.

and whether there's a consensus on their number. Do emphatics change as a

Subject: Salim

Dear Colleagues:

It is with a great deal of sadness and sorrow that The American
Association of Teachers of Arabic mourn the passing of our colleague,
Dr. Salim Khaldieh, after a courageous battle for his health. Many of
us will miss him as a colleague, a friend and an acquaintance. Our
association and our field particularly will miss a champion of
empirical research and of the application of second language
acquisition theory in the study of Arabic as a foreign language. Most
of all, he will be missed by his family, his colleagues and students
in the Arabic program at Wayne State University.

May God bless his soul, and give strength and courage to his bereaved
family and friends. 'inna li-llah  wa-'inna 'ilayhi raaji'uun -³from
dust thou art and to dust thou shall return².

Sincerely,

Aman M. Attieh

PS. This condolence is long overdue; it was very difficult for me to
write it due to the severity of the tragedy.

Dear Khaldieh's colleagues and friends:

     Last Thursday Wayne State University held a memorial service for our
dear colleague and friend Salim Khalieh. It was well attended and memory
evoking. Many top administrators who knew Salim by name only had the chance
to hear and feel how much of a positive effect Salim had on his colleagues
and students. I was so touched by the spontaneous reaction of many of his
students to stood up and volunteered to say few words. They spoke in much
the same joy, vivaciousness and humor they used to have when Salim spoke
with them. It was an occasion to remember and to reflect on how much of
cheerful memories last in people's hearts and minds.

     At the end of the memorial everyone was reminded of the establishment
of Salim Khaldieh's scholarship fund. I would like to urge everyone to:
Please do your share and contribute to the fund so that Salim's name would
not be forgotten. We owe it to him, to our profession and to ourselves as
well. I am confident that all of you want to do something, so please seize
the moment and let not those hundreds of little things in your mind
distract you from sending your contribution. Here is the information again
in case it was lost in the last cleaning up you did to your mail:

                      Dr. Aleya Rouchdy,
                      Department of Near Eastern and Asian Studies,
                      Wayne State University,
                      Manoogian Hall,
                      Detroit,  MI 48202

       Tax deductible checks should be made payable to:

                WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY - SALIM KHALDIEH FUND

     Please remember Salim in your prayers.
     salaam

Reading Arabic Aloud for the Blind

Reading Machine Makes Using Computers and Reading Texts a Matter of
Talking & Listening

Washington, April 25, 2001- Digitek International, North American
distributor of Sakhr and Harf software products, has just released
the new Sakhr Reading Machine to local markets.

The Reading Machine gives Arabic- and English-using blind and
partially-sighted users voice command of their PCs. For the first
time, visually challenged users of Arabic and English can take
command of their PCs, their use of the Internet, and access scanned
text when and as they wish.

The Reading Machine program reads aloud Internet screens, scanned
text, and even keyboard input. Users first train the software to
recognize their voice commands: giving them control of their personal
computers by voice alone. Then, as they type, or access Web pages, or
handle scanned text, the Reading Machine speaks to them. Vocalizing
keystrokes also serves as an effective verification of their typed
input.

Already blind translators and Websurfers are adding the Reading
Machine to the repertory of tools that enable them to surmount the
challenges at work and online

The Reading Machine uses Sakhr's proprietary bilingual text-to-speech
research and its voice recognition software engines to give users
state-of-the-art capabilities.

One of the interesting side effects of the Reading Machine is the way
that it has sensitized the sighted to world of the visually
challenged. Because the program dispenses with the mouse as an input
device, sighted technical support specialists for the Reading Machine
have to learn to listen rather than read as a way of understanding
what is going on. When Digitek's staff were learning the program,
they had to close their eyes in order to focus on the vocalized
instructions rather than reading and using a mouse to respond.
Sakhr's Reading Machine became a tool for understanding across
disabilities.

The Sakhr Reading Machine runs under Arabic Windows 98 and requires
Arabic MS Word.

Greetings,

I read recently about a "massive concordance" project of Arabic
poetry, begun by J. Horovitz at the School of Oriental Studies at the
Hebrew University in Jerusalem and, as of 1999, under the
chairmanship of Albert Arazi. Does anyone know how to contact Mr.
Arazi, or how one might go about gaining access to this concordance?

Thanks in advance,

Subject: Arab Academy testimonial

I am currently taking a course in the Arab Academy
language program (www.arabacademy.com), so I thought I
would offer my feedback in case anyone is thinking of
trying or recommending the program.

I spent last summer at Middlebury's full immersion
intensive summer Arabic program, and while nothing can
compare with speaking only Arabic for 9 weeks, I have
to say I am genuinely impressed with the quality of
instruction of this online course.  I'm taking an
intro-level class as a review, but I am far from
bored.  There is lots of new vocabulary, and I'm being
introduced to grammar that we never seemed to get to
in other classes (case endings, e.g.).  The
interactive practice programs actually work--they help
drill vocabulary into my head and give clear examples
of how it all gets put together.  And students can
take simultaneous classes in classical, modern
standard, and colloquial.  The best part, however, is
the immediate and thoughtful feedback I get from
professors.  I was expecting this to be a frustrating
and isolating experience, but thanks to the professors
it has been anything but. I also find Arab Academy to
be much more effective (and much less expensive!) than
learning with a tutor.

Hope this helps some of you.

Subject: Adjectives and Nouns

Dear Mike,

  In principle the Arabic language does not have on the morphological level a
word class called adjective, we have in Arabic "Sifa mushabbaha" instead. On
the other hand your example "Al-Arabeyya" is a relational noun (Nesba)that is
used mostly as an Adjective, not originally an adjective. So "Al-Arabeyya" in
the sentence is an Adjective but out of the context it is a Mansub Noun.
Sometime, this kind of Nouns is a common noun (according to my opinion in
building my tagset for Arabic POS taggeing). For example the word
"Al-?irhaabeyy" 'terrorist' in a sentence like "Al3amalu Al?irhaabeyyu" is an
adjective while in a sentence like "Al?irhaabeyyu qama bi 3amaliyatin
xaTiratin" is a common noun.

Subject: Language and Migration Call For Papers

Call for papers

Contributors are cordially invited to present papers at the conference:

LANGUAGE, MIGRATION AND THE CITY

to be held at the University of Bayreuth, Germany

from 22 November - 23 November, 2001

Abstracts (up to 300 words) by 15 September, 2001 to:
jonathan.owens at uni-bayreuth.de

The methodological and theoretical basis of the colloquium will center
on urban sociolinguistics, with an emphasis on corpus-based approaches.
Contrastive perspectives are particularly welcome.

A non-exhaustive list of topics includes:

- language in the West vs. Third World
- migrants moving into an established dominant culture vs. migrants
moving into an urban culture in the making
- city with dominant standard language vs. city where no standard
language has effective normative force

- integration of second lg speakers vs. integration of multidialectal
speakers
- contrasts between older, established multilingual communities vs.
those arising through recent immigration
- influence of urban varieties on rural areas
- urban-urban migration

Specific linguistic issues include the following:

- Koinization, standardization, development of prestige varieties
- Language repertoires, styles, codeswitching
- language and social networks
- Language contact, shift, maintenance and death
- Vitality measures (should the state of available information warrant
such)

It is intended that contributions will be published in a refereed
sociolinguistics series.

From: Munther A. Younes" <may2 at cornell.edu>
Subject: New Book for Intermediate and Advanced Arabic

Spoken Language Services, Inc. announces the publication of Tales
from Kalila wa Dimna for Students of Arabic by Munther A. Younes.
This is an expanded version of? Tales from Kalila wa Dimna: An Arabic
Reader, published by Yale University Press in 1989.Kalila wa Dimna, a
well-known Arabic literary classic, on which the present volume is
based, is an eighth-century translation of a collection of fables
about people and animals that has long been enjoyed by Arab children
and adults alike. In this illustrated rendition, Younes retells these
fables in simplified language for intermediate and advanced students
of Arabic.  Each story is accompanied by an illustration and  a set
of activities geared towards enhancing students' reading and
listening comprehension as well as their speaking and writing skills.
The book can be used in a classroom or for independent study.  The
three CD's that accompany it include the texts of the stories read by
the author.  A comprehensive glossary at the end of the book includes
all the words that were judged to be difficult or new for the
intermediate-level student.
The book can be particularly effective as a vocabulary building tool.
For the most part, the stories in it focus on a limited number of
themes and a limited set of characters or character types.
Consequently, much of the vocabulary is recycled from one story to
another, which facilitates acquisition and active use.
The material is also an effective confidence-building tool. From the
point of view of comprehension, stories are easier to understand than
groups of isolated sentences or a descriptive passage, because of the
presence of a context and a story line. In a story, the reader or
listener can predict or guess the meaning of unfamiliar words and
structures.  In terms of speaking, telling a story with a clear
structure, both thematically (a beginning, an end,  and a defined
plot), and grammatically (in which mainly the simpler perfect form of
Arabic verbs is used) is easier than other types of speaking
exercises, particularly at the intermediate or lower intermediate
level, when students' command of the language is still limited.
Five of the forty-six stories in the book are given in their original
form as they appear in unedited versions of Kalila wa Dimna in order
to give advanced students a feel for Classical Arabic and the ways in
which it differs from Modern Standard Arabic.  In two of the five
stories,  a simplified version appears along with the unedited
version for purposes of  comparison.
Although this edition is aimed primarily at students of high school
age and above, who will appreciate the allegorical sense of the
stories, younger readers may enjoy them for their literal value.
Munther Younes is a senior lecturer in Arabic language and
linguistics at Cornell University. His other publications include
Elementary Arabic: An Integrated Approach and Intermediate Arabic: An
Integrated Approach, both published by Yale University Press.

few weeks and has been admitted to University of Michigan hospital. Salim
is a dear friend and generous colleague to many in this list. I am sure
that he has many friends and colleagues who care and who would have been
upset if they did not know. I just came back from a short visit to him and
it seems that he would be in the hospital for sometime. Anyone in his place
would appreciate a form of expression of concern and hopes for speedy
recovery. Please remember him in your prayers, may God bless you all.

Thanks for posting Muhammad Eissa's kind message regarding Salim's state of
health.
All of us who have come to know Salim are quickly reminded of his high
enthusiasm for the TAFL profession, for his good leadership qualities, and
scholarship. His collaboration with Prof. Roushdy in organizing a nicely
done symposium at Wayne State a couple of years ago is well remembered. We
join in thought and prayer that his regains his good health and soon return

Dear colleagues and friends
I have been visiting Salim for the past two days, and have answered
some of your calls.  Your concern has touched him, but he does not
want to answer the phone. As a matter of fact the ringing irritates
him. It would be nice if you could drop him a card instead.
We will keep you all posted of his condition.
Best wishes ,

Salam All,
I'm looking for some references on Arabic language consonant classes. What I
know is that Arabic has three categories: Plain, Emphatic, and Geminate. Are
there references grouping these consonants and giving their properties? Can
anybody come up with minimal pairs?
Thanks

"This track presents Modern Standard Arabic to non-native learners. Modern
Standard Arabic is he formal language of all Arab countries and of Arab

This is not the kind of information I would expect in a Course Description.

Diversity in Language: Contrastive Studies in English and Arabic
Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
Edited by Zeinab Ibrahim, Nagwa Kassabgy, and Sabiha Aydelott
U.S. Publication Date: February 2001
ISBN: 977 424 578 4
$ 29.50 (cloth)  256 pp.   6 x 9?

The Arabic and English languages have developed along separate lines
over the centuries.  Thus, it is no surprise that even apart from
purely cultural elements, there are distinctive characteristics of
the two languages that pose particular problems to native speakers
one of one language attempting to learn the other.? Diversity in
Language: Contrastive Studies in English and Arabic Theoretical and
Applied Linguistics ($ 29.50, 256 pp.) offers new views on the
contrasts between Arabic and English and on contemporary theoretical
and applied linguistics as well as sociolinguistics.

Edited by Zeinab Ibrahim, Nagwa Kassabgy, and Sabiha Aydelott,
Egyptian scholars affiliated with the American University in Cairo,
the papers in this volume, focus on four main topics ? the
distinctive features of the Arabic language, comparative studies
between Arabic and English, style and form, and attitudes and
comprehension ? of English and Arabic linguistics and teaching.
Written by an international panel of linguists and writers, the
contributors to Diversity in Language were participants in the First
International Conference on Contrastive Rhetoric, held at the
American University in Cairo in 1999.

The book discusses distinctive features that make the Arabic language
especially difficult for English speakers to understand fully and
intuitively.  Comparative studies of English and Arabic, including
research on the acquisition of Arabic or English as a second
language, underscore the concept of diversity.  Contributors also
investigative stylistics, a major source of diversity between the two
languages.  Practical observations and suggestions will help teachers
of Arabic and English as a second language enable students to better
understand their second language and become more persuasive and
effective in using it.?

Diversity in Language is a welcome addition to the bookshelves of
scholars and students of Arabic, contrastive rhetoric, and
lingustics.  Teachers of English as a foreign language, even if their
students are not primarily from an Arab-speaking background, will
likewise benefit from the insights made in these contrastive
students.???

The American University in Cairo Press is celebrating its 40th year
as the Middle East?s leading English-Language publisher.  Books are
available  through Books International (703) 661-1570 in the U.S. and
via Eurospan in Europe.  For further information on Diversity in

Subject: AMIR University experience

Regarding AMIR University's Arabic program:

Yes, unfortunately I have to recommend against the AMIR courses. My
experience was very disappointing.  I signed up for a single session of
Intermediate-I to supplement my home studies.  I asked them for a
detailed description of the curriculum several times but all they gave me
was a page that stated that the course is based around newspaper articles
but gave no further information.  Thinking that current, authentic
material is exactly what I need to supplement my studies I signed up for
the course but I was disappointed to find the following:

1)  The "newspaper articles" are really not current "newspaper" items,
just short essays much like can be found in EMSA and others.

2)  The course is "structured" as follows :  student reads the article,
and if there is a word or phrase the student doesn't know, one simply
holds the cursor over the word and the word and phrase will appear in
translation in the bottom frame.  Following the reading, students do a
number of exercises including general comprehension and one called
"grammar analysis" although it is merely a multiple choice and there is
no attempt to actually teach any grammar, style, writing, speaking,
listening, or anything.  In fact, there is no form of direct instruction
whatsoever.  There are no instructions or explanations of any kind.  It
reminds me of the series Al-9arabiyyah li n-naashi?iin, however that
series is meant to be used in conjunction in a dynamic setting with a
teacher, not in isolation as the AMIR web course is intended.

Incidentally, the course is strictly web-based and the student is not
supplemented with any other materials or books.  There is a list of
translations of grammar terms on the site, but again, nothing to directly
instruct or otherwise guide the student.  In short, there is no goal to
each lesson aside from understanding the content of the reading, and this
is achieved by simply holding the cursor over the words and receiving
translation of each sentence in the bottom frame.

3)  As other students also commented on the student message board, the
tests seem to be merely a test of how well the student memorized the
reading.  As there is no instruction in grammar, style, writing,
speaking, listening, or anything, this is likewise reflected in the test.

The AMIR Arabic courses are actually through the Arab Academy.   I have
discovered that the AMIR university may be quietly connected to the
As-Sunnah Foundation of America which is run by "Shaykh" Hisham
Kabbani--the AMIR program and Kabbani's endeavors share some staff
members.  AMIR stands for American Mercy Institute for Information and
Research and I imagine the AMIR university is an attempt to fund and
promote a very problematic organization, that is, ASFA. However, I am
unaware of any direct connection between the AMIR university and the Arab
Academy aside from thir endorsement of Arab Academy's Arabic program.
You will find all of the information at http://www.arabacademy.com

My humble opinion is that the Arab Academy program, at least at the
Intermediate level,  is a program still in development, because what is
offered is only one piece of what should be a much broader curriculum. It
seems that, although they have clearly articulated their goals for the
Beginner program, they are unsure of their goals beyond that.
Personally, I think it should be suspended until the curriculum is more
complete.  To their credit, though, the staff and the program developer
were very helpful and understanding and promptly gave me a refund,
although the $35 registration fee is non-refundable.

Subject: Farewell Salim

Dear All friends and colleagues:

     This is a message I do not ever wish to announce about anyone.
Nevertheless, someone has to do it. My dear colleague and friend Aleya
Rouchdy of Wayne State university shares with me relating the following
lines to all of you.

     Our dear friend, dedicated colleague and sincere teacher Salim Khaldieh
has passed away today, Tuesday April 10 at 3:00 P.M. While in the hospital.
It is a great loss to all of us in many respects and it is a much greater
loss to his family and his students who loved him very dearly. Before
departing this world, Salim has touched the hearts of many of us. He has
intrusted us with so much of his witty spirit and original humor. Many of
us who shared happy moments with him will miss his animated style of
narration and his smart citation of authentic idiomatic expressions. Salim
will be remembered for so much and we will make sure that his memory will
not be buried with his body.

     As many of his close friends know, he was very proud of who he is and
where he comes from. In honor of this pride, his family has decided to bury
him in his homeland, Lebanon. However, those who live in the Detroit area
and its vicinity may pay the last respect to his body between 11:00 A.M.
and 6:00 P.M. in the following address:

                     NIE Funeral Home,
                     2400 Carpenter Rd.
                     Ann Arbor, MI

                     Phone: (734)971-2345

     In commemorating and perpetuating the legacy of Salim, Wayne State
University has established a fund for a special scholarship in Salim's
name.  Any donation towards the fund can be mailed to:

                     Dr. Aleya Rouchdy,
                     Department of Near Eastern and Asian Studies,
                     Wayne State University,
                     Manoogian Hall,
                     Detroit,  MI 48202

      Tax deductible checks should be made payable to:

               WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY - SALIM KHALDIEH FUND

     Let's remind ourselves of all the good memories we have of each other.
May God protect you and your loved ones.

I would like to respond to Umm Zaynab as follows:
1.  Students' Critique
We greatly appreciate our students' critique and we strongly encourage it.
It is through their criticism that we improve our online courses and
material.
Umm Zaynab was one of our first students at the Intermediate level.  She
dropped out after a week and sent us a long E-mail outlining what she
disliked.  Her comments led to major enhancements to the course.  We are
grateful to her for that.
As a matter of fact, we have students' boards where our students discuss the
courses.  All praise and criticism are left there for everybody to read.
Not a singly comment was every removed.  We are proud of our students and
strive to meet their needs and expectations.

2.  AMIR:
The Arab Academy is a privately owned non-religious institution.  Its online
courses and material are being used by non-religious as well as by religious
institutions.  Please check out our list of partners from:
http://arabacademy.com/partners_list_e.htm
None of our partners, and this includes AMIR, ever interfered with the
content of the courses.  After all, please remember that the Arab Academy
offers courses in Arabic language - not in religion.
On the other hand, I found AMIR's administrative staff always attentive to
the needs of their students.  They are to be praised for their sincere
efforts at using the latest technology in the dissemination of knowledge.

3.  New Wave of Learning
In the 20th century we all studied through books.  Now online interactive
courses are being used as well.  This is done in addition to books or
instead of them, depending on many parameters.
In general, universities that have ongoing Arabic language program,
subscribe to the Arab Academy's Resource Center.  They use the interactive
material as supplementary material to their textbooks.  Below is a link to
the material offered:
http://arabacademy.com/Subscription_Resource_Center.htm
Universities that do not have an Arabic Language Program partner with us and
offer Arabic to their students.  Below is a list of course offerings:
http://arabacademy.com/main/online/registrar_e.shtml
We hope that these efforts would make learning Arabic easier and more
accessible to everybody.

4.  Research Opportunities
The Arab Academy is aware that it is a pioneer in the field of online
learning.  We are very willing to help researchers study this experience and
compare it to traditional methods.  Prepare your questionnaires and we will
ask our students to fill them out for you.
Best regards
Sanaa Ghanem

Dr. Salim Khaldieh, assistant professor at WSU, has passed away on
April 10, 2001 at the age of 44.    Services and burial were in
Lebanon.

Dr. Khaldieh taught in the Department of Near Eastern and Asian
studies at WSU for the past four years.  A  most dedicated teacher,
he  recently received the College of Liberal Arts Teaching Award. He
had recently completed and submitted for publication a manuscript on
the teaching of Arabic as a second language.

He played a major role in the development and recruitment of students
in the Department of Near Eastern and Asian Studies.  He
relentlessly worked with students, and developed new teaching
materials to suit the needs of a diverse student body.  He never
hesitated to teach overload courses in order to satisfy the needs or
our students and his students enjoyed discussing all aspects of
Arabic with him and learned a great deal from his expertise and
insights.

? Salim was the perfect colleague,?  said Dr. Aleya Rouchdy, chair of
the Department of Near Eastern and Asian Languages.   ?His services
to the Department were numerous. He was always available beyond his
regular duty hours to help us or advise our students.  I will always
remember his animated style of narration, his constant citation of
humorous idiomatic expressions, and his warm laughter.  We will miss
him as a colleague, but above all we will miss Salim as a dear young
friend.?

The Salim Khaldieh  Scholarship  has been established by the
Department of Near Eastern and Asian Languages to assist students in
the study of Arabic Language and Culture.  Contributions may be made
payable to ?Wayne State University?,  with the notation Salim
Khaldieh Fund, and mailed to the Department at Room 437 Manoogian
Hall, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI 48202.

There are 1917 triliteral roots, of which 153 are "doubled" (R2=R3), and
557 are "weak" (they contain the letters waw or ya, but exclude
"doubled" roots such as w-d-d). I attach 3 files with all these roots
(triliteral doubled weak). If you'd like a copy (since attachments
aren't posted) let me know. I extracted the data using the list of roots
on my website:

Dear List Members,

I appreciate background information on available software
used for_Arabic_ e-mailing.  I have never used Arabic in my
e-mail correspondence.  I would greatly appreciate it if
you advise me on any such software you might have known
or used.  Your evaluation of such softwares would also be
of good help to a lot of people.

Best Regards,

George N. Hallak

Subject: For Salim

Dear Colleague,
We are all saddened indeed shocked with the news about our dear friend and
colleague Salim Khaldieh. I have no better words to describe Salim than those
written by Aleya Rushdy and Mohamed Eissa.
I have known Salim through working at Middlebury College for several summers,
and always enjoyed seeing him in conferences.
As we all know Salim loved his job, indeed adored (9ashiqa) it, we know
how dedicated he was to the profession. He also loved to write poetry, he used
to come every day saying "Samia, 'isma9ii dii" and if I complained he would
say in his always cheerful manner, "aren't you my sister? You should encourage
me" and he would recite what he has written.
One of his favorite poem is "Salaatu 9aashiqin" and he was the "9aashiq".
Let us all join now in a prayer for Salim in a " Salaatun li9aashiqin",
" Salim, raHmatu Allaah 9aleek, nas'al Allah ta9aala 'an yudxilaka jannatu.
May you rest in peace. You will always be missed".

  Does anyone know of works which apply any of the following
linguistic methodologies to the classification of Arabic dialects as
a whole:

1. lexicostatistics/glottochronology
2. historical linguistic cladistics, based on shared innovations
3. dialect geography.

I am not interested in general opinions (published or unpublished)
about dialect classification. I am not interested in classifications
based on practical and intuitive notions of mutual comprehension or
on known history. And I am also not asking about dialect atlases for
individual countries. I am only asking for specific references to
published works which rigorously try to apply one or more of the
above methods to the classification of the whole Arabic dialect area.

If you know of any such works, I'd be most grateful for your reply.

From: "Sattar.Izwaini at stud.umist.ac.uk" <mcuijsi2 at fs1.ccl.umist.ac.uk>
Subject: Translation of Terms response

Regarding translation query by Bugeja Alan John:

i) Fleet (as in a fleet of cars, vehicles): ?usTool ; surba
One important thing to think about is collocation. To have a fleet of
cars, vehicles in Arabic is to have ?ustul sayaarat or markabaat.
But the Arabic collocation is different when you have another
collocate.
The word surba (or rather sirb) on the other hand, collocates with
Tuyour (birds) as well as other bird species, Taa?iraat (planes),
muqaatilaat (fighters). So it is not a good choice, unless of
course in a translation of a creative writing.

ii) Global Satellite Positioning: taHdiid al-mawqiC b-iCtimaad al-
aqmaar al-SinaaCiyya
Technical expressions need to be traced to thier actual reference
whether itis an object, process or abstract notion. At the same
time one needs to conceptulize the meaning of the expression
rather than looking for lexical equivalents for thier individual lexical
components.
Dose it actually means 'detecting or tracing postions'? If it does,
then the translation is OK, but the notion of being 'global' is
missied. Note that 'global' modifies tahdiid as being Caam or
shaamil. I would suggest putting mawqiC in plural.
The rendition is rather long for a term. I would suggest deleting
b-iCtimmad and attach the prepostion bi to al-aqmaar.
The term would be: al-taHdiid al-shaamil lil-mawaaqiC bil-aqmaar al-SinaaCiyya

iii) Keypad : *daftar mafaatiiH
The same discussion above applies here. What is a 'keypad'? Is it a
kind of key holder or key panel? According to Cambridge Internationa
Dictionary of English, it is 'a small set of keys with numbers on
them that is part
of a device for changing television
stations, or the keys on a calculator, on the right side of a
computer keyboard, etc.' The usual translation of Keyboard is
lawHat mafatiiH. This has the same meaning of keypad in the
romote control device. Any how, daftar mafaatiiH is a wrong
rendition because daftar is referring to a book, a notebook, a note
pad etc. If a keypad is an entrance security device, the part of the
remote control or the like then it is lawaht ?arqaam.

iv) Real Time reporting : *iHDaar al-taqaariir al-waaqiCiyyat al-
zaman
Real time refers to dealing with and using new information
immediately and therefore
influence or direct the actions of the objects supplying that
information.
Reporting is a process, not an object, so it is not taqaariir. It is
rather naql, tabliigh or ?iblagh, tawSiil or ?iSaal. The context is
significant. If it is a process carried out by a computer, I would
suggest: al-naql al-?aany (lil-maClumaat). If it is carried out by a
human, I would suggest: al-?iblagh al-fawry.
You need to know the macrocontext of the expression.

Good luck.

acquisition theory in the study of Arabic as a foreign language. Most

May God bless his soul, and give strength and courage to his bereaved

Dear Khaldieh's colleagues and friends:

     Last Thursday Wayne State University held a memorial service for our
dear colleague and friend Salim Khalieh. It was well attended and memory
evoking. Many top administrators who knew Salim by name only had the chance
to hear and feel how much of a positive effect Salim had on his colleagues
and students. I was so touched by the spontaneous reaction of many of his
students to stood up and volunteered to say few words. They spoke in much
the same joy, vivaciousness and humor they used to have when Salim spoke
with them. It was an occasion to remember and to reflect on how much of
cheerful memories last in people's hearts and minds.

     At the end of the memorial everyone was reminded of the establishment
of Salim Khaldieh's scholarship fund. I would like to urge everyone to:
Please do your share and contribute to the fund so that Salim's name would
not be forgotten. We owe it to him, to our profession and to ourselves as
well. I am confident that all of you want to do something, so please seize
the moment and let not those hundreds of little things in your mind
distract you from sending your contribution. Here is the information again
in case it was lost in the last cleaning up you did to your mail:

Reading Arabic Aloud for the Blind

Reading Machine Makes Using Computers and Reading Texts a Matter of
Talking & Listening

Washington, April 25, 2001- Digitek International, North American
distributor of Sakhr and Harf software products, has just released
the new Sakhr Reading Machine to local markets.

The Reading Machine gives Arabic- and English-using blind and
partially-sighted users voice command of their PCs. For the first
time, visually challenged users of Arabic and English can take
command of their PCs, their use of the Internet, and access scanned
text when and as they wish.

The Reading Machine program reads aloud Internet screens, scanned
text, and even keyboard input. Users first train the software to
recognize their voice commands: giving them control of their personal
computers by voice alone. Then, as they type, or access Web pages, or
handle scanned text, the Reading Machine speaks to them. Vocalizing
keystrokes also serves as an effective verification of their typed
input.

Already blind translators and Websurfers are adding the Reading
Machine to the repertory of tools that enable them to surmount the
challenges at work and online

The Reading Machine uses Sakhr's proprietary bilingual text-to-speech
research and its voice recognition software engines to give users
state-of-the-art capabilities.

One of the interesting side effects of the Reading Machine is the way
that it has sensitized the sighted to world of the visually
challenged. Because the program dispenses with the mouse as an input
device, sighted technical support specialists for the Reading Machine
have to learn to listen rather than read as a way of understanding
what is going on. When Digitek's staff were learning the program,
they had to close their eyes in order to focus on the vocalized
instructions rather than reading and using a mouse to respond.
Sakhr's Reading Machine became a tool for understanding across
disabilities.

The Sakhr Reading Machine runs under Arabic Windows 98 and requires
Arabic MS Word.

Subject: Poetry Concordance Query

Greetings,

I read recently about a "massive concordance" project of Arabic
poetry, begun by J. Horovitz at the School of Oriental Studies at the
Hebrew University in Jerusalem and, as of 1999, under the
chairmanship of Albert Arazi. Does anyone know how to contact Mr.
Arazi, or how one might go about gaining access to this concordance?

Thanks in advance,

Subject: Arab Academy testimonial

I am currently taking a course in the Arab Academy
language program (www.arabacademy.com), so I thought I
would offer my feedback in case anyone is thinking of
trying or recommending the program.

I spent last summer at Middlebury's full immersion
intensive summer Arabic program, and while nothing can
compare with speaking only Arabic for 9 weeks, I have
to say I am genuinely impressed with the quality of
instruction of this online course.  I'm taking an
intro-level class as a review, but I am far from
bored.  There is lots of new vocabulary, and I'm being
introduced to grammar that we never seemed to get to
in other classes (case endings, e.g.).  The
interactive practice programs actually work--they help
drill vocabulary into my head and give clear examples
of how it all gets put together.  And students can
take simultaneous classes in classical, modern
standard, and colloquial.  The best part, however, is
the immediate and thoughtful feedback I get from
professors.  I was expecting this to be a frustrating
and isolating experience, but thanks to the professors
it has been anything but. I also find Arab Academy to
be much more effective (and much less expensive!) than
learning with a tutor.

Hope this helps some of you.
