◆ Learn Lebanese in a Very Practical Way
This is a Lebanese Arabic phrasebook, in a sense that it is designed to both:
① Give you all you need to know to get by speaking Lebanese when travelling to Lebanon
② Offer you a very practical and easy way of learning the dialect
◆ Students Have Been Greatly Benefitting From, and Impacting, This Method
The method and phrases used in this book have been developing since 2011 through my teachings of the Lebanese dialect through video lessons on youtube, as well as private lessons on skype.
They have been tweaked and are constantly evolving through the feedback of the students, focusing on what they find to be useful and efficient.
The most important aspect of learning a new language is to hear it being spoken by natives. Especially since Lebanese is considered as "spoken Arabic".
That is why the advantage of this book is that EVERY word and sentence used, is linked to the video in which it was taught, so you can hear it, and try to master the pronunciation. ◆ Understand ThroughTranslations and Pronounce With Transliterations
Each English phrase is translated to Lebanese using the Arabic alphabet for those who are Arabic literate, and then in its turn transliterated to the Latin alphabet for those who aren't. ◆ Make Sure You Don't Forget What You Learned with Exercises and Puzzles
In order to help you master the material, there are exercises and puzzle at the end of the book, such as crosswords and word search.
