Description: * LEARN TO SPEAK ARABIC LANGUAGE * * FSI TRAINING COURSE * AUDIO & TEXT on DVD * Arabic is a name applied to the descendants of the Classical Arabic language of the 6th century AD. This includes both the literary language and the spoken Arabic varieties. The literary language is called Modern Standard Arabic or Literary Arabic. It is currently the only official form of Arabic, used in most written documents as well as in formal spoken occasions, such as lectures and news broadcasts. This however, varies from one country to the other. In 1912, Moroccan Arabic was official in Morocco for some time, before Morocco joined the Arab League. The spoken Arabic varieties are spoken in a wide arc of territory stretching across the Middle East and North Africa. Arabic languages are Central Semitic languages, most closely related to Hebrew, Aramaic, Ugaritic and Phoenician. The standardized written Arabic is distinct from and more conservative than all of the spoken varieties, and the two exist in a state known as diglossia, used side-by-side for different societal functions. (wikipedia) The FSI Language Courses are developed by the Foreign Service Institute, part of the government of the United States of America. The courses have been designed to help students reach a level of proficiency which will enable them to understand and fully participate in most formal and informal conversations. The American goverment has been producing top quality government sponsored language programs for over forty years. These courses along with others were designed as a training tool for the United States government's top agencies and personnel, including Ambassadors, Government agents, and Diplomats. Many people agree that these are the most thorough and effective language training courses ever compiled. They are ideal whether you are a complete novice or are just wanting to brush up. The methods used have been tried, tested and fine-tuned over the last forty years or so and offer you the potential to quickly and effectively learn the language. The audio courses are in MP3 format in individual lessons, which mean you can learn them at your own pace. You can upload or listen to them from your MP3 player, computer, or vehicle (if you have an MP3 player).... alternatively you could transfer the files to a standard audio discs for use in any CD player. To accompany the courses, there are written texts included on the disc(s). These learning manuals are in PDF (adobe) format, which again can be read from a computer or printed off page by page as you progress. The courses were originally intended to be instructor-led but are also recognized as ideal self taught courses. Once again these are the original language courses used for decades by U.S. government officials. * ARABIC 48+ LESSONS * OVER 1,712+ PAGES OF TEXTUAL LESSONS! OVER 32+ HOURS OF AUDIO CAMPANION!
