Subject: English-Arabic dictionary recommendations requested

I am continuing to study Arabic on my own, and continuing to make good
progress. Thanks to information received from members of this mailing
list, I've bought Wehr's dictionary, and a volume of Arabic newspaper
articles. I've also engaged a tutor, a native speaker who is very
helpful.

     My tutor insists that I try to write some MSA! I've tried, and
find I really need some kind of English-Arabic dictionary. Not an
encyclopedic one, just one for an advanced beginner to intermediate
student.

     I'd appreciate any recommendations. If you feel they would not be
suitable for this mailing list -- which, I realize, is made up
principally of experts in Arabic studies -- would you be so kind as to
email me privately, at

     furrg at alpha.montclair.edu

     In any case, thank you in advance!

Sincerely,
