Resumen del Editor

I am learning Arabic : 300 essential words and phrases, 140 common expressions, the 100 most common verbs, the 1000 essential Arabic words. Arabic has a number of speakers estimated around 375 million people in the Arab world and the Arab diaspora.  

How to learn a language differently? Today, language learning is revolutionizing : you do not have to go to traditional language classes anymore. Our learning method : a selection of hundreds of phrases and essential words. You listen to them, you repeat them, and you speak. We rely on pronunciation, oral rehearsal, listening, combined with words, essential phrases, and a vocabulary list. 20% of the words are used 80% of the time. The end goal is to get a sufficient level in one language to be able to hold simple conversations, to be able to understand simple exchanges, deal with everyday life and start exploring the new culture that opens up to you.

Please note : this audiobook is in English.

Great for intermediate/lower intermediate learners

This is as advertised a pronounced word/phrase list which is really useful for people who already have some background knowledge of the sounds and much of the vocab. It is really not for pure beginners, who need more explanation.
There isn't any time wasted discussing anything in English. We just get the English word, then the Arabic equivalent clearly pronounced twice with a decent 4-5 second delay. This is perfect. for a drill, if that is what you are looking to get. You get the time needed to think about the word and say it silently, then move on.
Caveat - don't purchase this and the other, shorter, one listed by the same author. The other one is just a subset of this one.
Further, you only get one form of the verb. But that's fine with me.
Great for the modest price.
