Description The Routledge Introduction to Qur\'?nic Arabic is an innovative, text-based, language course designed for students interested in acquiring a foundation in Qur\'?nic and Classical Arabic.
About the Author Munther Younes is Reis Senior Lecturer of Arabic Language and Linguistics and Director of the Arabic Program at Cornell University, USA..
Written by an experienced teacher, The Routledge Introduction to Qur\'?nic Arabic is an essential guide for instructors, students and anyone interested in developing their knowledge of Qur\'?nic Arabic.
Also available on the website are answer keys to exercises and transcriptions of the audio material.
The audio material, which is available on the Routledge website, helps learners improve their pronunciation of individual sounds and develop their skills to syllabify Arabic words and phrases correctly in order to approximate that of native speakers.
The only prerequisite is knowledge of the Arabic writing system.
Although the book is primarily designed for classroom use, the vocabulary and structures of the short s?ras, the accompanying audio recordings, and the activities found throughout the book will also be helpful for independent learners.
Starting with the shorter s?ras of the Qur\'?n, such as al-Fatiha and those of the Juz\' \'Amma, it utilizes their recurring vocabulary and grammatical structures to build a stable linguistic foundation for learners before moving on to more challenging and longer s?ras such as Y?s?n, Maryam and Y?suf.
Focused on enhancing comprehension and vocabulary acquisition, the book contains 40 lessons designed to be covered in about 40 hours of classroom instruction.
