Syrian Arabic Voices

Absolutely fantastic! From a didactical perspective, the concept of the verbatim transcriptions of Arabs speaking off the cuff, while simultaneously sharing really interesting, personal and touching stories is simply ingenious. I can only hope that one day, this amazing and unique concept will be applied to more than just the Egyptian and Levantine dialects. I believe that all the speakers of Arabic dialects (including the less well-known ones such as Tunisian, Sudanese, Yemeni and Iraqi) deserve to make their voices heard to us eager language enthusiasts! I can't wait to find out what Lingualism's future projects will bring us.

The content ist really helpful. The only problem is finding the time to go through all of it. But I really like the authentic voices and follow up by reading.

If only there was two of these bellow?
Lebanese Arabic Voices ??
Palestinian Arabic Voices ??
Definitely would buy each of em on this same site at this exact same price

Like any other product from lingualism, I absolutely love it. Amazing stories from six people who fled the war, talking in native speech about their experiences. Learning new vocabulary in context of understanding every person's story makes it much more powerful. lingualism's products are a treasure trove for learning the Arabic language and Arabic dialects.

This is an excellent resource for so many reasons. It is wonderful for training your ear to listen to natural (and sometimes rapid) speech. It is also a great resource for learning the differences between Syrian Arabic and, say, Lebanese Arabic. You will learn to adjust your ear to the way things are pronounced in Syria. Lastly, the stories are really poignant and give us a better idea about the lives and experiences of people affected by the Syrian war.

Really great resource covering a range of different topics.

I love everything about this book! Very interesting and engaging topics, I have noticed a huge improvement in my vocabulary. I am forever grateful to Lingualism Team and Matthew for making learning Arabic dialects much easier :-) If you are around B1-B2 level honesty you need this book in your life!

Lingualism is opening up new possibilities for learning Arabic dialects. This resource is superb - authentic audio materials with precise verbatim texts. Highly recommended.

Clear voices, natural speech! It is the perfect tool for intermediate learners.

I highly recommend this resource! Just like the Arabic Voices and Egyptian Arabic Voices books, Syrian Arabic Voices features fascinating chapters about a variety of topics, clear audio, and very useful exercises for testing your understanding of each passage.

Honestly, a dream resource. The exercises are helpful, the transcripts perfectly spaced to follow the text, and the speech is perfectly natural (unlike so many other resources). I got the PDF version and it's working quite well, though from time to time I do print them to be able to read off paper.

This is excellent , I have been looking for a listening resource like this for ages. I love that it is natural speech and the stories are really interesting - such a great idea

I love it and find the voices, characters as well as stories interesting. I only wish I had bought the "real" book. The pdf papers just not so much fun to work with . I bought Arabic voices as book, and it is just more fun to study than the papers. But by any means, go for it.

Overall I find this book to be a really awesome addition to my Levantine learning, the audio quality, variety of topics, and varying lengths, speed and accents of speech are great! The only constant issue I've noticed is that many of the multiple choice answers in the answer keys are incorrect. However I will most definitely continue using this book as a resource to further my skills in Levantine and will continue to highly recommend it to anyone interested in developing their skills!
