'Arabiyyat al-Naas (Part Three): An Advanced Course in Arabic
builds further on the groundbreaking approach used in Part One and
Part Two of the series. It integrates Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)
and spoken Levantine in a way specially tailored to the needs of
advanced students. Levantine Arabic strongly features in spoken
discussions of MSA materials, reflecting authentic practice by
native speakers. However, the overall ratio of MSA - the form
employed for reading, writing and formal speaking in the Arab world
- to Levantine has been increased, supporting students' mounting
need for MSA as they progress further in their education. This
textbook is designed to take learners from the Advanced Low to the
Advanced High level according to the ACTFL criteria, and from level
B2 to C1 on the CEFR proficiency scales. Features include: 18
theme-based units covering topics such as Arab minorities;
education; religion; love and marriage; the Arab woman; economics;
politics; military matters; and the environment thorough coverage
of listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills with clear
grammar explanations and lessons structured to provide
opportunities for further practice humorous, realistic dialogues
reflecting educated speech among Arabs, to build up strong and
practical communication skills attention to issues highly relevant
to modern Arab society, encouraging active engagement with the
course and further exploration of the themes a rich variety of
reading passages from contemporary sources such as Al Jazeera as
well as excerpts from the classic works One Thousand and One Nights
and Kalila wa Dimna an extensive range of stimulating exercises and
activities, including crossword puzzles, root-and-pattern
identification exercises, passage completions, and free
compositions free companion website (www.routledge.com/cw/younes)
with the audio tracks, and texts of the listening passages and
answer key. Developed by a dynamic author team and tested over a
number of years at Cornell University, 'Arabiyyat al-Naas (Part
Three) is an essential resource for advanced-level students of
Arabic. While primarily designed for classroom use, the
accessibility of the course also renders it highly suitable for
independent study. This volume is the final installment of a
pioneering three-part series of Arabic textbooks which together
provide a complete three-year undergraduate language program.
Munther Younes and Yomna H. Chami both teach Arabic at Cornell
University, USA.
