A self-study guide for students of Arabic. Each chapter covers a grammar point: i.e., a part of speech (noun, verb, adjective, preposition), a word's function in a sentence (subject, predicate, object), a grammatical term (conjugation, declension, agreement) . Each chapter is divided into two sections. 1. In English: grammar is explained as it relates to English, anticipating concepts necessary for Arabic. 2. In Arabic: grammar is explained as it relates to Arabic, with a word-for-word analysis of meaning and form of Arabic examples. Available online : 1. The Arabic examples in Arabic script (they are transcribed in the study guide) 2. A correlation to Al-Kitaab fii Tacallum al-cArabiyya indicating the pages to be read in preparation for the grammar introduced in each lesson. This study guide is part of the O&H Study Guide series for students of foreign languages. Experience has shown that students using the O&H Arabic Study Guide improve their performance in Arabic grammar thanks to a better understanding of English grammar. Teachers can devote more class time to developing communicative skills.
