In the Desert: Modern Standard Arabic Reader (Modern Standard Arabic Readers)

When Ahmed meets three strangers on a train, his journey takes an unexpected turn that will change his life forever.<\/i><\/p>

The Modern Standard Arabic Readers<\/b> series aims to provide learners with much-needed exposure to authentic language. The fifteen books in the series are at a similar level (B1-B2) and can be read in any order. The stories are a fun and flexible tool for building vocabulary, improving language skills, and developing overall fluency.<\/p>

The main text is presented on left-facing pages with tashkeel (diacritics) to aid in reading, while parallel English translations on right-facing pages are there to help you better understand new words and idioms. A second version of the text is given at the back of the book, without the distraction of tashkeel and translations, for those who are up to the challenge.<\/p>
