Fall 2011 Levantine Colloquial Arabic 

Colloquial Arabic is used in daily communication between people in the Arab world. Rooted in classical Arabic, it is simplified for daily use and infiltrated by non-Arabic worlds depending on the geographical location, external cultural and linguistic influences. This class will focus on the Levant dialect, which is spoken in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Palestine. 

Three sessions to progressively move students from no knowledge of the Arabic language to being able to deal with a variety of real-life situations
