About the Book
This pack of 64 double-sided flashcards includes a wide variety of food and drink vocabulary ranging from meat, dairy, soft drinks, spices and nuts to general store cupboard items. Each word is given in its Arabic singular form on one side of the card, together with the English meaning and a guide to the correct pronunciation. Each item of vocabulary is illustrated with a high-quality colour photograph on the reverse. A leaflet is also enclosed containing suggestions for games and learning activities.
