Book Description
This Handbook of writing and pronunciation is the fruit of several years’ teaching the Arabic language at the United Nations Office in Geneva and interaction with students from fifty different countries, i.e. from different religions cultures, and linguistic origins. It is the collection of lessons prepared to reply specifically to the immediate needs of each student, taking especially into consideration his or her language of origin. The Arabic alphabet contains several letters and sounds which do not exist in other languages. Learners differentiate between them with difficulty and often confuse them. Among the languages which use the Arabic alphabet, there are several letters which are written and pronounced differently, as in Persian, Urdu or Pashto. This is why, whatever the language of origin of the learner, I insist on good handwriting and good pronunciation from the very beginning. In these languages, there are also words of Arabic origin, but they have different meanings. This is also true for other languages which do not use the Arabic alphabet but which are influenced by Islam, such as Malay and Wolof, or by Arab-Islamic civilisation, such as Maltese and Spanish. To know a language is to know the mentality, the way of thinking and of expressing himself, the customs, and the life style of the person who speaks that language. It is never possible to know and understand a people without knowing its language; through studying the language, you can identify with the people and even come to love them. This book is not a treatise on comparative linguistics. However, instead of dealing only with the languages which use the Arabic alphabet, I refer to other languages, since I find that there are common features which every student of Arabic must know, whatever his language of origin, whether or not it uses the Arabic alphabet.

Book Description
Ce lexique contient plus de 3000 mots et expressions en arabe regroupés par thème afin de vous permettre de choisir plus facilement ce que vous souhaitez apprendre en premier. La deuxième partie du livre contient également deux index pouvant être utilisés comme dictionnaires de base pour rechercher des mots dans l'une ou l'autre des deux langues. L'association de ces trois parties réunies fait de ce livre un excellent outil pour les apprenants de tout niveau. Comment utiliser ce lexique arabe ? Vous ne savez pas par où commencer ? Nous vous suggérons de parcourir d’abord les chapitres consacrés aux verbes, aux adjectifs et aux expressions dans la première partie de cet ouvrage. Cela vous permettra d'acquérir les bases nécessaires pour poursuivre votre apprentissage et suffisamment de vocabulaire arabe pour une communication de base. Vous pouvez consulter les dictionnaires figurant dans la deuxième partie de cet ouvrage pour connaître la signification de mots que vous entendez dans la rue, de mots arabe dont vous voulez connaître la traduction ou simplement pour apprendre de nouveaux mots par ordre alphabétique. Quelques réflexions pour conclure : Les lexiques existent depuis des siècles et, comme c'est souvent le cas pour ce qui existe depuis longtemps, ils ne sont pas très tendance et sont parfois considérés comme un peu ennuyeux. Ils restent néanmoins un outil d'apprentissage très efficace. Associé aux dictionnaires d'arabe de base qu'il contient, ce lexique arabe/français constitue un excellent outil pour vous accompagner tout au long de votre apprentissage. Il s'avère particulièrement utile lorsque vous ne pouvez pas rechercher des mots ou des expressions sur Internet.

Book Description
This volume includes the reflections of leading researchers on Arabic and Semitic languages, also understood as systems and representations. The work first deals with Biblical Hebrew, Early Aramaic, Afroasiatic and Semitic. Its core focuses on morpho-syntactic, semantic, pragmatic, rhetoric and logic matters, showing Arabic grammar's place within the system of the sciences of language. In the second part, authors deal with lexical issues, before they explore dialectology. The last stop is a reflection on how Arabic linguistics may prevent the understanding of the Arabs' own grammatical theory and the teaching and learning of Arabic.

Book Description
From a very young age, Abdallah Nacereddine was known for his Words of Wisdom; not amusing, childish, or witty words, but something very wise and solemn. Family members, relatives and neighbors even reminded him of them many years later. But in an illiterate society, no one recorded them in writing. It was only in the 1960s, thanks to the books he read, mainly on Western philosophy, that Abdallah Nacereddine started to write down his thoughts and reflections. They were an immediate success among his circle of friends and acquaintances, and he published three books from 1967 to 1970. During trips to Japan, his writings in English and French were very much appreciated and translated into Japanese for publication in literary reviews. After teaching Arabic and producing textbooks for many years, Abdallah Nacereddine started writing again. He produced a new book in 2004, and published his Words of Wisdom in English, Arabic and French on his website. Thanks to their success, this book is published to bring to another audience his writings in English in the form of couplets. An Index gives the reader access to their themes, from Good, Life, and Love to Man, Woman, Suffering and Healing.

Book Description
This autobiography gives a detailed account of his childhood in a primitive society and the conditions prevailing during the Franco-Algerian conflict and its aftermath. The book describes his search for a place to settle and his quest to find a niche in society and his chosen profession, tracing his philosophical and psychological course through life. It portrays life in the Muslim community in the USA, the author's relationships with people of all walks of life and origins, and his teaching experiences in an international, multicultural context. Widely read in world philosophy and religions, and psychology, Abdallah Nacereddine provides a penetrating insight into human nature the world over, with the accounts of his experiences from philosophical and psychological points of view and his comments on the international events in which he was caught up. His life history is sometimes sad, often funny, but, above all, thought provoking.
