Introductory course consisting of four sections, an attached glossary of technical terms and a lexicon. The four parts should be studied in order: Part one - Phonology, consists of detailed explanations of the phonological system of Moroccan Arabic and twenty pronunciation drills to acquaint the student with the system of transcription employed here. It is advisable that the student master this system completely before beginning the units of the book. Part two - Basic units, is composed of ten units that present the essential grammar of Moroccan Arabic. Part three - Conversations, is comprised of ten units that introduce dialogues varying in length and structural complexity with explanations of new grammatical points. Part four - Texts, is a series of thirty-eight texts which are adaptations of field tapes (see footnotes attached to the texts of Units 21 to 30). One unit, Unit 25, is adapted from "Morocco: A glimpse of history," a publication of the Moroccan Ministry of Information, and "Morocco," a publication of the Embassy of Morocco, Washington, D.C. The Units of Part four provide an introduction to Moroccan customs, ethnology, history, folklore, and literature as well as giving a more sophisticated exposure to the syntax of the language.
