Customer Reviews

Not for children
I bought these flashcards hoping that they would be useful in teaching our children Arabic. The cards have English illustrations and text on one side and Arabic illustrations and text on the other. So far so good. However the illustrations are of poor quality - sketched and of a school child standard. This doesn't affect the coloured 'English' side too much but is problematic on the 'Arabic' side as the illustrations are in black and white and so it is occasionally difficult to see what the illustration is meant to be of. The poor standard of the illustrations tends to detract from the cards which are of good robust quality. Finally the Arabic writing could be larger and in a bolder type to make reading easier.

Good but unclear description
The quality of the pictures is great and it really is handy, but it would be better if it was more clearly labelled as Portuguese from Portugal. I'm Brazilian and the differences - especially in basic vocabulary - are far greater than, say, between US and UK English. I had to relabel about seven of the cards, which has made me decide not to buy the accompanying dictionary.

Very Good
