Nice little book if you just want to learn the very basics. I would not recommend this if you were trying to learn Arabic for travel as it doesn't contain everything that you need. I have decided to take an actual Arabic language course instead of relying on books. My Lebanese husband says the book is a nice start and that what is written in the book is pretty accurate as far as pronunciation goes. Price is nice. Yes, I would recommend it. --E. L. Yassine Was recommended this book by my Lebanese friend who claimed this book was the best source to learn this dialect. This is my favorite book thus far from this author. --Kenneth I've always wanted to learn how to speak arabic, since all my close friends are arabs, so I always wanted to talk to them in Arabic and share in on the inside jokes. I've tried many courses and books but they all were traditional Arabic and every time I tried to talk to my friends, they would laugh at me and say that i'm speaking in classical written arabic. Just a few weeks ago I borrowed this book from a friend of mine and it has been amazing, the technique is so easy to follow with parallel sentences and english and arabic words next to each other, I started understanding how Arabic is spoken! I also showed it to my Lebanese friend who thought that the book was really impressive and focused more on the speaking part of it. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn how to speak and talk in Arabic. It is the best technique to learn the language fast. --Swapnil Joshi I am a Lebanese man, who love to speak the language and share it with everyone . So I bought the book and read it . Love it and I absolutely would recommend this book to my friends and family and whoever wants to buy it excellent book. As a Lebanese man, reading it is fun and easy to follow . And expressions Are commonly used in Beirut . Great job . Love it .. --Ahmad Hassan Ismail I've had this book for under a week and I'm already in love with it! Such a good way to learn Arabic, quick and easy! Good Job Yatir! --NekoMan For many years I have been looking for a good conversational Arabic book, until I found this one. This is a very detailed method to teach communications in Lebanese dialect. I would absolutely recommend this book, to all those, who want to learn to speak the language. --Andrea Villa The way to use this book is very simple and clear. If you use the words and sentences (and build your own sentences with them) you could actually sound sort of Lebanese. Definitely something to consider for your self-taught course of colloquial Arabic. --Cristian Garcia Wonderful investment, perfect for my needs, my husband is Lebanese, during his life in Lebanon he would travel back and forth to Syria to visit his extended family, and he is impressed by this book also by the Syrian book. Hopefully soon we can communicate in Arabic without the kids understanding. JOKE. --Jasmine Aoun An extremely useful educational tool. The simplicity of its instruction has motivated me to seek out Mr. Nitzany's other published works. --Matthew Ackerman I'm glad someone is selling something specifically for the Lebanese dialect. --SUPERCAT I love this book it's excellent. It helped me learn Lebanese arabic. Thank you so much. --Michel Saliba
