watch the dialect!

While pimsleur does a great job as always. This is Syrian Arabic.
It gave me some basics but a horrible accent for the country I was in.

The best way to start learning a new language

Honestly this is one the best ways to start learning standard Arabic. It's almost subconscious how the answers just come to you and flow out of your mouth. It really is amazing!

Useless - 0 Rating

What’s the point of having this here? It’s completely useless. Should be better and clearly marked.
