POCKET GUIDE TO ARABIC SCRIPT
by Fayeq Oweis
This handy booklet, designed to be carried in one’s pocket, presents  
the basics of reading and understanding Arabic script. It begins with  
an introduction to the alphabet and the pronunciation of Arabic  
characters. The book also features the rules of reading and writing  
the language, including reading direction, consonant-vowel elisions,  
and, of course, letter linkages or ligatures, notoriously the most  
difficult aspect of the script to learn. It is an essential tool for  
students, travelers, businesspeople, and military personnel in the  
Middle East and other places where Arabic is spoken.
