This is the book I wish I had when I first went to live in Egypt. I had a pretty good grasp on colloquial Arabic grammar. I could conjugate verbs and form basic sentences. I knew “lots of words”… or so I thought. But I would so often find myself in situations unable to express my thoughts and needs and struggling to understand what people were saying to me. I was always worried that my awkward exchanges with locals made me come across as rude because I didn’t know the right things to say at the right times. Understandably, I wanted to prepare before I tried to tackle specific communicative challenges–such as getting my hair cut. But how? I found myself flipping through various course books and pocket dictionaries looking for words and phrases to use with the barber. I would bring lists to my teacher. How do you say “not too short”? What’s the word for “sideburns”? How do I make small talk with my barber? (I knew that Egyptian barbers were chatty!) It was a lot of research to accomplish a simple task I’d taken for granted back home.
Take a closer look inside!

I got this book, and I thought it is also like the others books, but after studying some chapters, i t astonoshingly changed my view about itself. Let me say that honestly and frankly that this book’s influence in my Arabic was so prfound that I can speak with confidence now. Its situational manner will pave the way for all language learners to talk in different situations. The quality of audio files are excellent and I used them a lot. Here I should thank the writers for creating such a great book.
If you are looking for the best book and overally for the best website to learn Arabic, you are for sure in the right place. Here you are not paying anything, but you’re investing on yourselves.
Best regards to all lingualism authorities and users.

I have purchased many of lingualisms materials. Honestly, they are easily the best purchases I have made in my Arabic learning journey. The audio is high quality and easy to use. I currently live in Egypt and can say that this book has been very useful in understanding Arabic the way it is actually spoken in the streets/in public. I have found what works for me: I love to memorize phrases and then reuse them with other things I have learned to more freely express myself. The book(s) release timing was perfect. Don’t give up in trying to learn this language. Its well worth the journey.

I really appreciate so much that finally I can learn arabic dialects – I’ve studied arabic language, but it was so challenging because I studied MSA at University (which means : sophisticated language and instruction that ignores everyday skills and basics). It was really hard, I learned translating somehow but I never learned speaking. I also spent time in Egypt for learning dialect, but this didn’t help in the long run – classroom learning is usually very limited in time and you can not listen repeatedly or listen and read – which I need for remembering. So finally the materials from lingualism are really handy and extremely helpful. For me they are so useful because I can really learn at my pace and with methods corresponding to my learning style. In my eyes they are a game-changer.
As for the “situational arabic” books, I really appreciate that there are several dialogues covering the same everyday situations so that You get different expressions. Matthewreally did a great job here, going much deeper than usual language learning books. Ans also the cultural explanations or explanations for certain expressions. I finally enjoy learning arabic and feel that I make progress. It actally is fun learning.

Great!

These two course books are excellent practice for colloquial Arabic. You will already need to have studied an Arabic dialect as the course doesn’t explain colloquial Arabic grammar and verb conjugations. But if you already know the basics of colloquial Arabic grammar, this course gives excellent practice in everyday dialogues. Can’t wait to see similar books for other Arabic dialects such as Iraqi or Saudi Arabic.
