Описание:

A much-needed work which will undoubtedly enrich the Arabic library and will become a valuable reference for any student, scholar, and researcher of the Arabic language and culture. This book is the harvest of years of research and documentation by the author, and I am privileged to have accompanied him as a friend throughout a part of his rewarding journey. Dr. El-Barouki is a scholar in his own right and has dedicated some twenty years to the completion of this treasured reference book. He is certainly qualified to lead the way in promoting this genre for all those interested in a better understanding of Arabic idioms and their intricate nuances, critical importance, and meanings.
