Flash Cards on Steroids [Posted on 2007-10-10]
I've never seen a line of flash cards as well thought out, organized, and executed as the ones produced by Tuttle. Like the cards in the first series, the vocubulary was selected based on its frequency count in a selection of modern works. Each word is shown in Arabic script and English transliteration along with a non-trivial sample sentence (also in script, transliteration and translation). And four words derived from similar roots are also included on each card. Need I say more ?
Just as good as Vol 1 [Posted on 2008-05-29] In Volume 1 one side of the card listed a word in Arabic script with 4 related words and the other side listed the 5 words and an example sentence in Arabic, English and Romanised Arabic. Now in Volume 2 the Arabic script is no longer written on the reverse side for the 4 related words. Perhaps this does away with some redundancy and clutter but I'd prefer it if the transliterations were dropped altogether.
At least one vocabulary word that was in Volume 1 was included again in Volume 2.
Notwithstanding the oversights, Volume 2 is an exceptionally handy tool for any student looking to add a further 2239 words to their Arabic vocabulary.
