El-Mumtaaz: Contemporary Beginning Egyptian Arabic
Mahmoud Azaz, CUES Distinguished Fellow, and Ayman Mohamed
"A lively, thorough, and fun addition to the books on modern Egyptian Arabic, El Mumtaaz stands out for its alignment with the ACTFL guidelines and 5 C's, its assessment rubrics, its integration of video, pragmatics, and Egyptian humor, and its attention to the nascent Masri orthography. Mumtaaz ya Mumtaaz!" —Noha Forster, University of Chicago, Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations
