This book will introduce the reader to many of the common Arabic idioms, with translations and their closest English equivalents. It includes many essential phrases, from both colloquial Arabic idioms and the timeless classical phrases that have remained unchanged over the years. One of the advantages of the classic Arabic idioms is that they are familiar to people all over the Arab world and beyond. They feature in everybody's everyday speech on a daily basis. Although, many modern phrases in colloquial Arabic are limited to a particular country or region and change rapidly with fashions, Egyptian phrases have a wider currency and are well known across the majority of the Arabic-speaking world. The book, therefore, also offers a wide range of modern phrases drawn mainly from Egyptian colloquial Arabic.

A Handbook of English Proverbs and Idioms with Arabic Renderings and Equivalents by Abdullah Al-Huraibi Pdf
This handbook is a collection of English proverbs and idioms with Arabic translations. The author ventures to translate these English proverbs and idioms with Equivalents from Arabic culture, formal and popular. The aim is to help Arab students of English comprehend an English idiomatic expression and properly render it into Arabic. Another aim behind writing this handbook is to help translator students make use of these English idiomatic expressions while translating Arabic proverbs into English instead of lingering over thinking about the words and expressions to be used. Undergraduate Arab students of English translation studies in particular, should have a lot of English idioms and fixed expressions besides their English skills of speaking and writing. This handbook is chiefly intended for them. Arabic culture is rich with proverbs and idioms. Spoken Arabic proves to be a good source for a translator student to pick up equivalents or substitutions for the English proverbs and idioms. Here, I have translated English idioms and proverbs by finding an Arabic saying or quotation that approximates the intended message of the original. It is safer to say that finding direct literary Arabic proverbs for English sayings with same linguistic equivalences is difficult. However, I do my best effort to find for every English idiom or proverb recorded here an Arabic parallel which are seen to roughly have equivalent meaning, if not similar meaning, or effect on the Arab audience but dissimilar form. To put it differently, translating of English proverbs has been partly based on personal renderings and partly on cultural substitutions by replacing an English idiomatic expression with an Arabic one, no matter if the Arabic substitution does not have the same linguistic equivalence of a particular English idiom or proverb. Importantly, the Arabic substitution should have an equivalent effect on Arab audience. Indeed, a lot of time has been put into collecting English idioms and proverbs from various sources. Much more time has been put into reading various Arabic sources of proverbs and wise sayings in an effort to find equivalents and substitutions. Spoken Arabic and informal Arabic sources have been found richer wirh equivalents for English proverbs and idioms than literary Arabic sources.I have cautiously resorted to informal Arabic expressions to translate most of the English proverbs and idioms given here. Yemeni expressions here are picked up by word of mouth from people. Searching the Internet high and low for Arabic proverbs, formal and popular, helps me much overcome many problems. No reference for the English and Arabic proverbs, idioms, quotes etc is included here. As a matter of fact, the literal translations of English proverbs made by some Arab writers sound poor., and it and lacks the equivalent effect on the Arab reader.It is no exaggeration when I say that I have beaten my brain out all the time trying to find an Arabic equivalent or a substitution which has a corresponding effect on Arab audience regardless of the sum meaning of the words used in an English proverb. There are 1600 items, or even more, listed as main English proverbs and idioms with equivalent number of Arabic translations. Corresponding or related proverbs are listed as (*) symbol, except where necessary, I have given my own renderings. They are marked as (*). As already mentioned, because a proverb or an idiomatic expression is indirect, its meaning is greater than the meaning of the individual words put together. Unlike literal translation which is based on the sum meaning of these words taken individually, figurative translation sounds not only more beautiful, but also more fitting with the message and spirit of the original. To sum up, since proverbs and idioms are metaphoricals, a translator should be aware more of the message of a proverb other than the sum meaning of words taken individually. I hope that readers will find it very interesting
