Fundamentals of Arabic Grammar

By Mohammed Sawaie

488 pp

Fundamentals of Arabic Grammar provides an authoritative guide to Modern
Standard Arabic (MSA) grammar. It has been organised to promote a thorough
understanding of MSA grammar and presents its complexities in a cohesive
and user-friendly format, filling many gaps left by other textbooks.
Explanations are clear, full and accessible and extensive
cross-referencing, two generous indices and six appendices provide users
with easy access to the information they require. No prior knowledge of
linguistic terminology is required.

Features include:

•Expert treatment of a full range of grammar topics and structures,
including the case system, Idhaafa, the equational sentence, quantifiers
and the vocative, generously spread across thirty eight chapters

•Special attention to parts of speech, such as nouns, pronouns, adjectives,
adverbs and propositions, given at the beginning of the book to acquaint
students with the basic units of Arabic and provide a solid foundation for
further learning

•A wide range of contemporary examples drawn from real life to provide
solid context to grammar points, further supported by word glosses and
idiomatic translations of sentences

•Grammatical terms given in both Arabic and English

•A wide variety of supplementary learning resources such as practice
sheets, exercises and verb tables available for free download athttp://
www.routledge.com/u/Sawaie

•Substantial bibliography incorporating primary Arabic grammar sources in
addition to secondary sources in Arabic and in English

Fundamentals of Arabic Grammar has been field tested over a number of years
and has been written by a highly experienced teacher of Arabic. It will be
an essential resource for students and teachers of Arabic at all university
levels and is suitable for use both as a companion reference text in Arabic
language courses and as a standalone text in independent grammar classes.
