 The University of Pennsylvania

 Elementary Arabic is an intensive, full year courses in Modern Standard
 Arabic, the Arabic used in formal discourse in the contemporary Arab
 world.  Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able
 to read and understand texts on familiar topics, carry on simple
 conversations, and engage in basic written correspondence.  The course
 will cover the same material as Penn's year-long Elementary Arabic course

 (AMES 030), and will prepare students for Penn's second-year course,
 Intermediate Arabic (AMES 031).

 Second year Arabic assumes knowledge of first year Arabic or the
 equivalent.  The goal of the course is to expand the student'
 vocabulary, ability to apply the grammar learned in first year Arabic
 and acclimatize the student to a native speaking environmen

 Graduate students studying medieval Islamic civilization or comparative
 Semitic studies will be introduced to bibliographic tools for the study
 of early and classical Arabic.
