For some of you, learning the names of various D.I.Y. tools in Arabic doesn't sound like the most exciting subject, but for some others it's a must. Of course it's not all just D.I.Y., you will also learn some plenty of other useful vocabulary, so tune in!

    Hello, thanks a lot for this new lesson. To answer your question about highlighting the colloquial words, i personally find it very useful. Because, i want to learn both the classical as well as the colloquial Arabic in order to be able to read Arabic news etc, as well as to be able to talk with the people.
    شكرا جزيلا

    One question, it's about the words mentioned in the PLC. If a carpenter is نشار then what is a publisher? Thanks!

    @Carlibya , carpenter it is actually (نجار) and not (نشار). In Arabic, (publisher) is (naashir ناشر), so you would find it on the first few pages of any book (الناشر - the publisher).

    Ah great, thanks a lot :). I obviously commented to quick and didn't listen carefully, because when listening the PLC for a second time, i realized that you actually mentioned that نجار is derived from a different verb (which is نجر ?). Thanks!
