Abstract:
			
A Short Reference Grammar of Iraqi Arabic is the only volume of its
kind, reflecting Iraqi Arabic as spoken by educated Muslims in
Baghdad. With all the Arabic transcribed, it is written for beginners
as well as Arabic speakers wanting to learn the dialect. It covers the
phonology, morphology (word formation of nouns, verbs, pronouns,
adjectives, and numerals, achieved by adding prefixes and suffixes to
roots), and syntax, teaching the reader how to make the sounds, form
words, and construct sentences.

Abstract:
			
A comprehensive introduction to Iraqi Arabic for beginners (with
Iraqi-English and English-Iraqi glossaries) this is the language
spoken by educated Muslim Baghdad residents, transcribed and not in
Arabic script. It does not assume prior knowledge of Arabic. A Basic
Course in Iraqi Arabic with MP3 Audio Files contains ten chapters of
phonology to explain the sounds, and thirty more covering grammar and
vocabulary.  The phonology chapters all contain extensive drills. The
grammar chapters start with a dialogue or brief narrative, then
explain new vocabulary and points of grammar, and conclude with
drills. The book is usefully enhanced with a bound-in CD with audio
MP3 files to accompany the text and drills.
