Publisher's Synopsis

Are you at your wits' end (ضاقت بك الأرض) trying to master the Arabic language (تجيد اللغة)? With thousands of entries, this dictionary will help you to rattle off (تحدر حدراً) idioms and expressions in no time (في لمح البصر). The ability to use and understand idioms and expressions often marks the difference between a language-learning beginner and a natural-sounding language user. This dictionary translates over 8,000 Arabic idioms and expressions into English, covering a wide range of situations and registers. It helps intermediate and advanced learners of Arabic working in fields including translation, academia and business to hone their skills, and is equally useful to native Arabic speakers involved in translating and interpreting from Arabic to English.
