Armenian Dictionary in Transliteration


Book Description

Although the dictionary's primary audience is the speaker unfamiliar with Armenian script, it also aims to serve a second audience, to which nearly all Western Armenian speakers belong, even the quite literate; namely, those who know how a word is pronounced, but are unsure how it is spelled. It is, in this way, a dictionary in transliteration and a speller's dictionary in one.




Western Armenian Dictionary & Phrasebook


Book Description

Western Armenian is the language spoken by most of the seven million Diaspora Armenians who live outside their historic homeland. Its speakers form the majority of Armenians in the United States and the Middle East.

In addition to a pronunciation guide, included are a resourceful two-way dictionary containing more than 4,000 entries, an informative grammar section, and a collection of travel-oriented phrases. Observations related to Armenian culture are interspersed throughout the phrasebook. There is also a brief history of the Armenian people and Diaspora.




Eastern Armenian for English Speakers


Book Description

This Armenian language textbook is one-of-its kind, innovative tool for everyone who wants to learn Armenian from A to Z. It is easy, fun and culturally informative. It educates and unfolds a whole new world in front of the learners' eyes. I have written this textbook with the challenges of my students in mind and by utilizing most strategic methodologies of teaching foreign languages. The textbook consists of two parts. Part 1 is for complete beginners, where one learns the alphabet, basic dialogues accompanied by Latin transliteration, grammar and essential vocabulary. Part 2, on the other hand, is intended for intermediate learners. We have almost no transliteration in this Part and assume that the student is feeling more comfortable reading the Armenian letters. The units in Part 2 have more exercises, longer texts and teach richer vocabulary. The texts and dialogues include information about Armenian places of interest, famous writers and artists, historical facts, pictures. This way the student feels more engaged with the Armenian culture and does not simply learn a new foreign language. In the appendix, one can find a more elaborate vocabulary list, common Armenian proverbs, acronyms and useful expressions.We hope you enjoy your Armenian journey!
