Jordanian Arabic Learning Books
​Conversational Arabic Quick and Easy: Jordanian Dialect
If your desire is to learn complicated grammatical rules of Jordanian Arabic, this book is NOT for you. But if you need to actually hold a conversation with your Jordanian friends or while on a trip to Jordan then this book IS for you. This book is designed to get you to speak Jordanian Arabic quickly by learning and memorizing 350 core words that are most commonly used in the language without having to learn the complicated grammar. This book is NOT a phrasebook though; it will teach you how to use and combine these core words to form your own sentences for the purpose of becoming conversational in the shortest time possible. All words in this book are taught in English transliteration. More formalized training in Arabic alphabet and grammar rules can come later.
