Presenting the rich vocabulary and phraseology of contemporary written Arabic, this dictionary offers an essential resource for engaging with the unified form of the language prevalent across the Arab world, from Iraq to Morocco. Covering prose from books, newspapers, periodicals, and letters, as well as formal speech in public addresses, radio, TV, and religious ceremonies, the dictionary particularly aids those dealing with post-19th century writings. The shared morphology and syntax across Arab countries, as well as the limited vocabulary variations primarily in specialized fields, reinforce the continuity of the written language, fostering a sense of identity and recognition of shared cultural heritage among the Arab people. Edited by J. Milton Cowan, this hardback edition spans 1110 pages, making it a comprehensive companion for anyone exploring the world of modern written Arabic.
