ABOUT THE PUBLISHER




INTRODUCTION (#ulink_28753346-f46f-557e-b236-0544f8504acc)


Whether you’re on holiday or staying in one of the Arab countries for a slightly longer period of time, your Collins Visual Dictionary is designed to help you find exactly what you need, when you need it. With over a thousand clear and helpful images, you can quickly locate the vocabulary you are looking for.

The Visual Dictionary includes:



10 chapters arranged thematically, so that you can easily find what you need to suit the situation

images – illustrating essential items

YOU MIGHT SAY… – common phrases that you might want to use

YOU MIGHT HEAR… – common phrases that you might come across

VOCABULARY – common words that you might need

YOU SHOULD KNOW… – tips about local customs or etiquette


USING YOUR COLLINS VISUAL DICTIONARY

In order to make sure that the phrases and vocabulary in the Collins Visual Dictionary are presented in a way that’s clear and easy to understand, we have followed certain policies when translating:

1) This Collins Visual Dictionary is intended for those with an interest in the language and culture, but is not for academic study. The selection of vocabulary in the sections represent almost all Arab countries from Morocco in north-west Africa to Bahrain and Kuwait in the Middle East. While Modern Standard Arabic or Fusha is the main used language in translation, we have sometimes included other regional variants where applicable.

2) The definite article has been used where appropriate in the translation of nouns into Arabic.

business Ш§Щ„ШЄЩ‘ЩђШ¬Ш§Ш±Ш© at-tejaara

Where commonly used, feminine forms of nouns have been shown with the masculine form as the main translation.

scientist Ш§Щ„Ш№Ш§Щ„ЩђЩ…/Ш§Щ„Ш№Ш§Щ„ЩђЩ…Ш© al К»aalem/al К»aalema

3) The past tense is the verb tense used in the translation of infinitive verbs into Arabic.

to stop ШЈЩ€Щ‚ЩЃЩЋ awqafa

4) The transliteration system used in the dictionary has been based on one which is frequently used in areas such as social media. On the next page, we have noted some helpful points about the pronunciation of Arabic. Sometimes, the same English letter has been used for two or more different Arabic letters that have the same basic sound but are pronounced slightly differently, for example:

• س and ص are both transliterated with an [s]; the letter ص is the heavier, thicker version of the letter س , and both are pronounced just like the English [s] sound, with ص sounding heavier than س .

car Ш§Щ„ШіЩ‘ЩЉЩ‘Ш§Ш±Ш© as-sayyaara

factory Ш§Щ„Щ…ЩЋШµЩ†ЩЋШ№ al masnaКј

• د and ض are both transliterated with a [d]; where د sounds exactly the same as [d] in English, ض is a heavier [d] and is an emphatic consonant, whereas د isn’t.

warm ШЇШ§ЩЃЩђШ¦ daafeКј

boiled eggs ШЁЩЉШ¶ЩЊ Щ…ЩЋШіЩ„Щ€Щ‚ baydun maslouq

• ت and ط are both transliterated with a [t]; in Arabic, ت is softer than ط and sounds exactly the same as [t] in the word “table”, whereas ط is a heavier sound, as in “toll” or “watt”.

apple Ш§Щ„ШЄЩ‘ЩЏЩЃЩ‘Ш§Ш­ at-tuffaah

breakfast Ш§Щ„ЩЃЩЏШ·Щ€Ш± al futoor

• ذ , ث and ظ are all transliterated with [th]; ث is pronounced as [th] in “thief”, and ذ is pronounced as [th] in “the”. ظ is a heavy version of ذ and the difference between ذ and ظ is very subtle (similar to [p] and [b] in English).

ice cream Ш§Щ„Щ…ЩЏШ«Щ„Щ‘ЩЋШ¬Ш§ШЄ al muthallagaat

seeds Ш§Щ„ШЁЩЏШ°Щ€Ш± al buthoor

wallet Ш§Щ„Щ…ЩђШ­ЩЃЩЋШёЩЋШ© al mehfatha

Listening to the free audio resource will help you to identify the difference between the sounds described above.
