Arabic Iraqi Basic Course: Module 1-3 (Language) Paperback – 21 Mar. 2020

I have reviewed the material in this book with a few Iraqi natives and they both said the information is highly accurate. One man named فرقد even said he recognized a street name they used in the book. I think it’s a great source of information.My only complaints. The tashkeel are almost impossible to distinguish at times because the script looks almost as if it were written with a pen and so they end up as blobs. Also the audio for Lesson 1 is incomplete, unless I’m not understanding something. Other than those two complaints like I said it’s a great source of information, not to mention one of the only Iraqi dialect textbooks available.

Having searched an purchased almost every Iraqi textbook on the market new and old this has quickly become one of my favorites! It doesn't lean on transliteration and proves itself as a book for those looking for an academically rigorous look at the dialect. Granted it is available for free on PDF but having a paper copy is very nice!
