Reviews
A Dictionary of Arabic Idioms: Arabic-English Translation presents a valuable reference on one of the most challenging aspects of the Arabic language. It is a very useful resource for learners and translators alike with accessible presentation and comprehensive content covering a wide range of old and contemporary idiomatic expressions. --Aziza Zaher, Durham University This is an immensely useful and attractively organised volume. The idioms of any language can be difficult to master. Thus all students of Arabic, whether beginners or those who are advanced, will have cause to be immensely grateful for the painstaking labours of El Mustapha Lahlali and Tajul Islam. --Ian Richard Netton, University of Exeter
