Which Levantine dialect is this?
Levantine Arabic Verbs is specifically Lebanese (Beiruti). Because the differences between Lebanese and Syrian Arabic are marginal (both being northern Levantine dialects), this book is also suitable for those studying Syrian Arabic. (For southern Levantine dialects (Palestinian and Jordanian), we recommend our book Palestinian Arabic Verbs.)
Levantine Arabic Verbs will help learners of all levels master verb conjugation as well as natural pronunciation.
- 100+ conjugation tables of some of the most common verbs (and ‘pseudo-verb’ prepositional phrases) used in daily language.
- Phonemic transcription alongside the Arabic script in the conjugation tables to aid in accurate pronunciation and help learners get used to Arabic script as written for the dialect.
- Usage notes.

I ordernd the PDF e-book ‘Levantine Arabic Verbs’ yesterday. It is just what I’ve been looking for since ages. This book is fantastic. I have other Levantine resources, but none measures up to this book. Thank you so much for the effort you put into creating this book. It was worth it.

I bought the book from Amazon and love every moment of going through it. I’m also taking Arabic classes; the book has helped tremendously improve my vocabulary and understanding of common words and phrases. Not sure but this seems to be the only comprehensive dictionary as well! A million thanks to the developers who have put in a world of effort. 🙂

This is an amazing resource, I recommend getting the book and flash cards. This isn’t just a list of verbs, it’s a full details of the most used Levantine verbs with real life examples. This has helped me greatly as I am using the chunking method to learn phrases at a time as opposed to a single word. Each verb is broken down into useful phrases so you can see how it is used and conjugated. This is a unique product and cannot recommend it highly enough for all Arabic students.

good resource

This is definitely one of my favorite Arabic books (bought it on Amazon because they offered the paperback version). Not only did it help with understanding the b- and m- prefix of colloquial Levantine but it was in an easy to understand format. The authors did an amazing job with these verbs! Also I appreciate that there’s participles and imperatives included. There is one thing that would have been nice to include is the Masdar/gerund. But other than that, this book is a keeper!

This book is definitely a key resource when learning the Levant verbs. With its comprehensive analysis of main verbs in the Levant language, this book helps you identify the differences in meaning and use of the verbs in comparison to their counter parts in MSA. I can definitely say that this book will be in my pocket at all times when going over my levant dialect – especially the key verb look up sheet. I cannot fault this pdf at all, the way that it covers all qualities and measures of verbs is excellent and easy to understand for any level of user. Would definitely recommend this book to anyone using the Levant dialect in an educational environment.

This ebook is great. From beginning (rules, linguistic structures in clear language) through the layout and charts – even the order in which the “persons” are presented – all make this ebook a wise purchase. I keep coming back to it. Go for it!

I cannot give enough thanks to the people who contributed to this book! I ordered the paperback version on Amazon and I gotta say, it is so well put together to the point it is making me progress in my Levantine Arabic learning REALLY fast!!!

Great resource. I use it pretty much on a daily basis!
Calvin –
As a beginning learner mostly self-teaching Arabic (with an iTalki tutor) this book has been an invaluable resource. So helpful. Took me a while to figure out how to use it to its fullest extent but once I did it brought my learning to a new level!

Great resource, highly recommend!

This is one of the best Levantine Arabic books you can buy. I have gotten my money’s worth out of this book a hundred times over! I am constantly referring back to the book to figure out how to form new verbs that I come across. I can’t say I have found any other book on Levantine verbs that comes close to this one.
If you are even somewhat considering buying this book, go ahead and do it… you will not regret it!

I would say this book (get the physical copy!!) was without much doubt the most useful purchase I’ve ever made for Arabic learning. I took it wherever I went when living in Beirut and it really helped me transition into fluency. Me and my friend used to use it a lot for grammar drilling/productive tasks. Now I’m working on Jordanian Arabic as I’ll be doing field work there so will for sure get the Palestinian version! Thank you for these excellent resources!

I concur with the other reviewers, this is a really useful resource, and there simply isn’t anything else like it that I know of specifically made for Lebanese. It’s well produced and laid out, too, and the short grammar in the back pages helps make sense of the material. It’s an invaluable complement to any other course material or grammars that you might have. There are complete tables for over a hundred verbs, and they are used to model the remaining several hundred verbs in the index. For those, I do wish the index directed you straight to the relevant table, instead of having to cross-reference the verb type first, but this doesn’t make the book any less useful, it would just make looking them up slightly quicker. On the other hand, that omission forces you to look at similar verbs and get a feel for the different verb groups, so perhaps it was a deliberate choice. Get this one in hard copy, and keep it on your desk.
