5.0 out of 5 stars Great start in Arabic, February 12, 2002

This review is from: Arabic (Egyptian), Q&S: Learn to Speak and Understand Egyptian Arabic with Pimsleur Language Programs (Pimsleur Quick and Simple) (Audio Cassette)
Today I just finished the 8 lesson Pimsleur Egyptian Arabic course. It's fantastic. I've used many of these Pimsleur courses and am a big fan to begin with, but Arabic poses some unique challenges. The pronunciation is a bear, with a handful of sounds that we don't have in English. Nonetheless, Pimsleur walks you through them, helping you pronounce them. The real test came when I tried out my new skills on a Arabic speaker at a local gas station today. He was blown away by what I knew and understood me just fine, even though he speaks a different dialect than Egyptian. Pimsleur is supposed to publish a full 30 lesson "big brother" course to this one, and I plan on getting so I can keep going in Egyptian Arabic.
