Riassunto

The Olive Tree Dictionary translates from Arabic to English and contains an English Arabic Index. The Dictionary contains 784 pages 9,000 entries, 17,000 phrases and an index of 14,000 English words. The Olive Tree Dictionary helps English speakers to unlock the beauty and mystery of the Arabic language. Until the creation of this unique publication, the challenge of mastering Arabic script has prevented many from communicating with native Arabic speakers. Utilizing an inimitable and innovative method, Arabic words are organized phonetically according to their English verbalizations. Whether your purpose is work or leisure, all entries in the dictionary are fully transliterated and easy-to-read and to use. Each item contains a modern up-to-date translation that includes at least one sentence demonstrating its correct pronunciation and usage. The author, J. Elihay, has published numerous works and helped thousands of non-Arabs learn and actually speak colloquial Arabic. Although the dictionary focuses on Eastern Arabic dialects, (Jordanian, Syrian, Lebanese, and Palestinian Arabic) it is a relevant and valuable work for all those interested in learning Arabic. The dictionary s emblem, the Levant and the Olive Tree, signifies peace. In some small measure, the Olive Tree Dictionary contributes towards bridging the gap of understanding between English and Arabic speakers.
