Varying your essay sentence structure
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

You don’t need to be a top-selling author to realise that it is important to vary your sentence construction. An essay where every line begins “I think that...” or “There are...” or even just “The” will come across as dull and unimaginative, and it will be difficult to keep your reader’s interest.

Wikibooks - Arabic/Appendix
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

This appendix is a compilation of various lists of words and phrases, some of which are quite brief, and some of which, like the "useful words" list, are quite extensive. Some of the materials rely on transliteration alone and therefore require no knowledge of Arabic script while others are written in Arabic. The word lists are focused on common words such as professions, greetings, common expressions, and also include a fictional dialogue of two people greeting each other.
