al-Kitab al-mufid by Manfred Woidich

A new coursebook in modern standard Arabic from the authors of kullu tamam! This sequel to the well-known kullu tamam!, on Egyptian Arabic, by the same authors, focuses on the modern written language used in real life by providing short texts taken from Egyptian newspapers, official statements, and the internet, and introduces personal and business letters, some of them in handwritten form (ruq‘a). For those who have studied kullu tamam!, the first lessons give contrastive word lists and exercises to make the link with Egyptian Colloquial Arabic. Extensive pattern drills, translation exercises in both directions, and writing exercises aid understanding and encourage active use of the language. The key to the exercises, the Arabic –English / English –Arabic glossary, and the audio material containing the texts allow for classroom use as well as for self-study.

Manfred Woidich is a retired professor of Arabic and Islamic studies at the University of Amsterdam, and is the author of several books on the colloquial Arabic of Egypt.
