2.0 out of 5 stars Pointless - in my view, 12 Dec 2004
The 201 Verbs Series is an old established series of books, designed to help students get to grips with the irregularities of verbs, a serious problem with most European languages, which have complex verbal structures and irregular verbs by the dozen. But here we have a language which has _almost no_ irregular verbs (OK, ra'aa, to see, and laysa, to not be, but I can't think of anothers). Almost all verbs are regular: though some work slightly differently to others due to the presence of a /y/ or a /w/ in the root letters, still they work consistently (unlike in the related Hebrew and Aramaic languages where guttural letters change 'doubling' and 'vowelling' in unpredictable ways.).

I tried it years ago, didn't get anything out of it, and recommend a grammar book instead, perhaps Ziadeh and Winder's "An Introduction to Modern Arabic" which has good verb tables and a lightish approach, or Haywood and Nahmad's "A New Arabic Grammar of the Written Language" if you're in for the long haul (I used the latter).

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable resource, 11 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This book was recommended to me by an Arabic tutor who had recently returned from Mauritania and was conducting a course on introductory classical Arabic grammar in the form of Al-Ajrumiyyah: a basic text, favoured within Northern and Central African terrain.

The book has proven to be a most valuable adddition to my Arabic-learning arsenal and certainly takes a lot of the hassle out of determining how to decline those seemingly innocent triliteral stems!

The format, in terms of arrangement, takes a bit of getting used to but constructing your own alphabetically listed contents comprising of translations of verbs helps to no end.

4.0 out of 5 stars pretty good, 4 Sep 2004
this book helps you especially with the more difficult verbs and their conjugation. The book is a basis to conjugate other verbs and not essentially a list of verbs you will need when speaking. could have done with a few more notes otherwise good for the experienced beginner.
