Abstract:

A comprehensive introduction to the linguistic fundamentals of modern
Arabic, ideal for Arabic language learners as well as speakers
interested in developing a richer understanding of language use and
behavior

Introduction to Arabic Linguistics presents a clear and engaging
overview of the core linguistic aspects of modern Arabic, focusing on
Modern Standard Arabic and Levantine Arabic. Designed to be welcoming
for undergraduates without fluency in Arabic and for students with
only limited familiarity with linguistics, this textbook covers all
fundamental areas of Arabic linguistics. Detailed yet accessible
chapters include comprehension and analysis questions, critical
thinking exercises, application examples with authentic data, reading
assignments, and classroom and homework projects.

This valuable textbook is organized into three units which cover
sounds and sound systems, word structure and meaning, and phrases and
phrase structure. Author Youssef Haddad draws from both the Arabic
grammatical tradition and recent linguistic research to provide
students with a solid foundation in the linguistic features and
structures of Arabic sounds, words, and phrases. Topics include
phonological processes, derivational morphology, noun and verb
phrases, sentence structure, structural ambiguity, and more.

Discusses key topics in the formal study of Arabic linguistics,
suitable for Arabic speakers and language learners
Encourages students to investigate a dialect not covered in the book
at different levels of linguistic analysis
Answers many of the most common and relevant questions in the field of
Arabic linguistics
Includes a typological and historical overview of the Arabic language
Offers an instructor’s website with additional exercises, practice
questions, PowerPoint presentations, and answer keys
Introduction to Arabic Linguistics is the perfect textbook for
undergraduates in modern language and linguistic courses and a
valuable resource for graduate students in Arabic studies or
linguistics programs.
