Arabic and English Idiom, Conversational and Literary

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This work is intended to serve as a companion to my Grammar of the Arabic Language and aims at exhibiting the principles and structure of the language by a carefully chosen series of examples. The great object throughout the work has been to make it an easy and progressive introduction to the idiomatic forms of the language. The plan followed has been to work up from the elementary constructions to the complete sentence, and then to treat of the various kinds of sentences in their grammatical order.
