Designed for intermediate learners who want to move beyond basic self-description, this eBook helps you engage in richer and more natural conversations.

I cannot rate this highly enough. After years of learning multiple languages, this is one of the most useful tools I've come across. Incredibly useful vocabulary and the audio is indispensable to understand the vocabulary in use, correct your pronunciation and practice. Of course, you need a base of grammar and vocabulary to begin using and enjoying this book ... hence it A2 and B1 - but my Arabic has improved so fast with this and I feel more comfortable than ever speaking and listening to locals. Will there be more advanced versions with longer responses? Congratulations !!!
Definitely Would want one for Palestinian ??
This book is a continuation of Shwayy 'an haali, and reaches into more advanced territory. I found the book and the audio very useful for getting my ear used to hearing rapid and natural speech. At first, I thought I might not be able to understand anything, but after revisiting the lessons and listening to them several times, I could tell I was understanding more and more.
It's all about exposure, exposure, exposure!
Great resource, it covers so many topics which is amazing! Whenever I knew I would be having a conversation with someone I would pick a few topics beforehand from this book, go through them and then use what I learned during the conversation. I love that the book is organized in 'Question & Answeres' way, it makes learning so much easier.
Extremely satisfied!! I found it useful at a lower intermediate level a couple of years ago and still find myself coming back to it a couple of years later even at a higher intermediate/lower advanced level :)))) Ya3tikon el 3afiye
