    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.IslamiCity.com/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=70599">sultanmuradII</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 23620<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 02 August 2012 at 6:11am<br /><br />Salam,<br /><br />I have been learning arabic for a long time, mainly self study, but it is only recently I started to excel in my learning.  I thought I'd share my experience so others perhaps can benefit.  BTW I would say I am about 2/3 of the way in having a good advanced level grasp of the language.<br /><br />There are now so many resources to learn Arabic now, some more useful than others.  <br /><br />Nothing comes close to human teaching, and even in this category you get excellent teachers, and poor teachers.  However even with a good teacher, you will make faster progress if you put in extra hours of self study and revision.<br /><br />NUMBER 1 Rule to make excellent progress from day one is to learn sentences with in a context, and then phrases with in sentences and lastly words with in phrases and not the other way around.<br /><br />The biggest problem in learning, I found is grasping the the meaning of words and phrases, and that can be very difficult from just books or software. <br /><br />PC Software is generally not that helpful, I completed Rosetta stone all 3 levels, it helped to familiarise the sounds of words and short sentences, but lacked hugely in building upon these short phrases in other contexts, not to mention containing grammatical errors.<br /><br />For a good grasp of grammar rules I reccomend completing the 3 Medina Arabic Books including doing every exercise in the book.  <br /><br />The best learning book I found from the 10 or so books I have attempted is the Al-Arabiyya bayna Yadayk.<br /><br />That's it for now, I'll add more later, insha-Allah. ]]>
