"Talk Arabic is a must have for beginners looking to learn how to speak Arabic quickly! The book and accompanying CD is very easy to follow and users can immediately begin using and practising the language right from chapter one. The activities progress throughout the book allowing readers to build upon previously learnt vocabulary without too much memorizing efforts, with the language and grammar being taught through ‘key language’ – language that is most used and relevant for beginners.
"The book also touches upon many useful cultural aspects of the Arab world and their importance in conversation. The CD is very clear and incorporates both male and female voices allowing listeners to adapt to a range of voices and grammatical differences. Talk Arabic is useful for those wishing to learn spoken Arabic quickly and independently, whilst also being a useful resource for Arabic teachers when providing exercises for beginner students. Readers who complete the book will have a very good spoken foundation to build their language on as well as an understanding of the script and culture.
I would also highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to travel to the Arab world and converse in everyday situations whether that’s meeting local people, using a hotel, transport or at restaurants!"
