Buyer beware, this new edition of the Moroccan Arabic Phrasebook is basically identical to the previous edition, including the layout. It is not as if there were no mistakes to correct, in fact there are many and they do not seem to be corrected.As far as I can see they removed the capital on French and Berber (which were both useless) and added a chapter on Sustainable Travel as an appendix. Again lazy work on part of LP!
The typeface is so small itâs hard to read. And the Arabic script is so tiny even native speakers are reaching for their glasses.
Once I heard LP is having a new version of Morcoccan arabic, I immediately know all these mistakes that exist in previous version will be kept the same. And it is true! What's the point of having a new version?
Wish the words gave phonetic pronunciation in English... the book gives phonetic pronunciation in Arabic, so you constantly have to refer back to the first pages of the book in which the author explains what sounds each vowel and some consonants make.
Full of mistakes, disappointing again. I will never buy LP dictionaries again. Is it really that hard to correct the mistakes?
Very helpful. Important phrases in the front with pronunciations.
great book, great service
I spent 3 weeks in Morocco. I didn't know a bit of Arabic when I arrived and with the help of the book and a couple of friendly Moroccans, I was able to navigate throughout he country. :)
