商品簡介
Kendall (Arabic, U. of Oxford) updates and expands her Top 1,000 Words for Understanding Media Arabic to incorporate terms associated with the Arab Spring and the search for democracy, recent natural disasters and their aftermath, new political and military developments, and the economic and financial crises. Perhaps the biggest change, however, is the addition of audio files that can be downloaded from the publisher's website in MP3 format. This brief reference can be used on its own, she says, but more usefully in conjunction with Julia Ashtiany's coursebook Media Arabic. The topical sections include general, politics and government, economics, law and order, and disaster and aid. An index of the terms is also provided.
