Subject:Arabic Grammar teaching texts

As long as we're suggesting reference works as well, one of my  
favorite is the little known Modern Literary Arabic - A Reference  
Grammar by Ron Buckley, published by Librairie du Liban (2004). An  
extremely comprehensive work, with plentiful fully vowelled and  
translated examples. It'll be a lot easier for students to use than  
Wright, though a bit more difficult to find online (a quick search  
shows several places which sell it in the US). It does tend to follow  
a more western model of grammar, so it does not map 100% between the  
Arabic terminology and concepts and the Western use of them (i.e. it  
considers all sentences containing verbs in any position to be jumul  
fi3liyya)
