Feghali (foreign languages and literature, Appalachian State U.) has designed a handy language guide based on a phonetic system he developed. It teaches the Arabic Lebanese dialect through realistic scenarios and dialogues that cover topics such as food, clothing, transportation, and leisure activities. In addition to teaching the language, it provides a better understanding of Arab culture and traditions. Includes a phonetic chart and a lexicon. Annotation c.
