Syrian Arabic Website

This website mostly promotes the Syrian Arabic language coursebook, Syrian Colloquial Arabic, a functional course, by Mary-Jane Liddicoat, Richard Lennane and Dr Iman Abdul Rahim, which is only available online. Although, this website shouldn't be discounted as simply a tool to promote a book, as a large portion of the book is dedicated to Syria, and travel to / within.
