A Frequency Dictionary of Arabic is an invaluable tool for all
learners of Arabic, providing a list of the 5,000 most frequently
used words in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) as well as several of
the most widely spoken Arabic dialects. Based on a 30-million-word
corpus of Arabic which includes written and spoken material from
the entire Arab world, this dictionary provides the user with
detailed information for each of the 5,000 entries, including
English equivalents, a sample sentence, its English translation,
usage statistics, an indication of genre variation, and usage
distribution over several major Arabic dialects. Users can access
the top 5,000 words either through the main frequency listing or
through an alphabetical index arranged by Arabic roots. Throughout
the frequency listing there are thematically-organized lists of the
top words from a variety of key topics such as sports, weather,
clothing, and family terms. An engaging and highly useful resource,
A Frequency Dictionary of Arabic will enable students of all levels
to get the most out of their study of modern Arabic vocabulary. A
CD version is available to purchase separately. Designed for use by
corpus and computational linguists it provides the full text in a
format that researchers can process and turn into suitable lists
for their own research work. Tim Buckwalter is Research Associate
at the University of Maryland. Dilworth Parkinson is Professor of
Arabic at Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah.
