    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The second edition of Fundamentals of Arabic Grammar provides an authoritative guide to fuṣḥa Arabic grammar. It is organized to promote a thorough understanding of this grammar and presents its complexities in a cohesive and user-friendly format. Explanations are clear, accessible, with ample cross-referencing. Two generous indices, one in Arabic and the other in English, and eight appendices provide users with easy access to related information. No prior knowledge of linguistic terminology is required. New to this edition are more illustrative examples, rules of breaking consonant clusters اِلتِقاء السّاكنَيْن and a new, more commonly used transcription system, in addition to ample illustration of verbs with their conjugation and use. Features include expert treatment of a full range of grammar topics and structures, including the case system, ʾiḍāfa, the equational sentence, quantifiers and much more, all generously spread across thirty-eight chapters. Special attention to parts of speech, such as verbs, nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs and prepositions at the beginning of the book, acquaints learners with the basic units of Arabic and provides a solid foundation for further learning. A wide range of examples provides solid context to grammar points. Grammatical terms are given in both Arabic and English. A wide variety of supplementary learning resources such as practice sheets, exercises and verb tables are available for free download at www.routledge.com/9781032875392. The bibliography incorporates primary Arabic grammar sources in addition to secondary sources in Arabic and in English. Fundamentals of Arabic Grammar has been field tested over several years and is authored by a highly experienced teacher of Arabic. This book has proven to be an essential resource for students and teachers of Arabic at all university levels. It is suitable for use both as a companion reference text in Arabic language courses and as a stand-alone text for independent grammar classes.
