About this product

Product Information

"A Dictionary of Syrian Arabic" provides Syrian terms for the language spoken in everyday life by Muslims primarily in Damascus, but understandable throughout Syria as well as in the broader linguistic areas of present-day Lebanon, Jordan, and among the Palestinians and the Arabic-speaking population of Israel. Entries include examples, idioms, and common phrases to illustrate usage. The Arabic terms are presented in transcription. It is useful for students of Arabic, scholars wishing to train in the Syrian dialect, and visitors and travelers to Syria and other nations where the dialect is spoken. A thorough introduction outlines the sociolinguistic situation in Syria and covers phonology, morphology, syntax, grammar, and vocabulary. Alongside the other Arabic language-learning and reference works published by Georgetown University Press, this dictionary is yet another invaluable volume on spoken Arabic, belonging at the side of travelers and scholars, and on the shelves of research and reference libraries.

The only English-Syrian Arabic option, but a good one
Probably the best English-Syrian Arabic dictionary out there. Uses transliteration instead of the Arabic alphabet, but the system is very well explained and accurate. It does a nice job of putting words into context and differentiating between different uses. The book was written in the 60s, so some of the words have fallen out of use, but it is still mostly accurate and probably the best dictionary you'll find.
