Nouns and Arabic Numbers workbook along with an Answer sheet The Arabic grammar is considered to be one of the most important traditions of the world of Linguistics however, Arabic Grammar is relatively unknown to western linguistics of the present. The goal of this book is to give the reader with an overview of this tradition, not simply by rewriting it and setting it in a frame that makes it more easily accessible to any linguist who has been trained by the west tradition.
