Arabic Voices presents dozens of audio essays on a variety of topics by native speakers from across the Arabic world, in both Modern Standard Arabic and regional dialects*. Each essay is transcribed, translated into English, and includes exercises to improve comprehension.

(* Moroccan Arabic, Tunisian Arabic, Egyptian Arabic, Levantine Arabic (Lebanese, Syrian, Palestinian, Jordanian), Iraqi Arabic, and Yemeni Arabic)

Arabic Voices is a two-part series designed to provide students of Arabic with an opportunity to hear and study authentic Arabic as it is spoken by native speakers today. Unlike the scripted materials read by voice actors used in many coursebooks, Arabic Voices offers dozens of audio essays spoken naturally and off the cuff by individuals from across the Arab World. Each of the twelve native speakers has contributed audio essays in both Modern Standard Arabic and his or her native dialect, which have then been transcribed for study.

The segments (audio essay chapters) in Modern Standard Arabic provide valuable insight into native speakers’ range of style and proficiency in the language.

The segments in colloquial Arabic dialects offer a fascinating look into the many varieties of Arabic, and how similar and different they really are from one another. Fine-tuning your listening to the idiosyncrasies of each dialect will truly help you better understand spoken Arabic.

Topics include self-introductions, childhood memories, daily routines, university life, marriage, religion, clothing, transportation, and the Arabic language, among other cultural topics.

Each segment contains:
• Exercises to sharpen your listening skills and increase how much you can understand, whatever your level.
• In-chapter answers to the exercises (no having to flip back and forth to the back of the book).
• A voweled transcript of the audio with side-by-side English translations
• Cultural and linguistic notes
• Weblinks to articles and videos related to the segment
• Select segments feature grammar focuses for additional practice
