The Oxford University Press is celebrating the print and
digital publication of the Oxford Arabic Dictionary, which is produced by an
international team of expert translators and advisors using Oxford’s renowned
language research programme.
The Oxford Arabic Dictionary is the first of its kind to be
based throughout on real modern evidence of both English and Arabic usage, WAM
reported. The unique Arabic corpus, developed specially for this project,
provides evidence of the latest vocabulary used in computing, business, the
media, and the arts, making the resource the most up-to-date bilingual Arabic
and English dictionary available. The dictionary focuses on the standardized
variant of Arabic used in writing and formal speech, commonly known as Modern
Standard Arabic.
