Dear Fatme,

	Salaam.  You may want to try either of these standard,
	and still useful, grammars:

	Cowan, David.  *Modern Literary Arabic.*  Cambridge Univ. Press.

	Haywood, J. A. & H. M. Nahmad.  *A New Arabic Grammar.*  Harvard
					Univ. Press.

	Best of luck.

Hi,
A good Arabic grammar book is written by Cowan. I don't remember the
exact title now. Probably, it's "Literary Arabic" or "Modern Literary
Arabic." It's good as a review book for the teacher, but shouldn't be
used as a textbook.
