A Short Reference Grammar of Iraqi Arabic is the only volume of its kind, reflecting Iraqi Arabic as spoken by Muslims in Baghdad. With all the Arabic transcribed, it is written for beginners as well as Arabic speakers wanting to learn the dialect. It covers the phonology, morphology (word formation of nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, and numerals, achieved by adding prefixes and suffixes to roots), and syntax, teaching the reader how to make the sounds, form words, and construct sentences.

- The titular conflation of “Iraqi” with “Muslim Baghdadi” is emblematic of Western institutions reinforcing, rather than balancing, the existing power structures of national “dialects”; Jewish Baghdadi, Christian Baghdadi, Mosul Arabic, and North Mesopotamian Arabic all coexist with Muslim Baghdadi Arabic in a complex ecosystem, and Muslim Baghdadi Arabic is only privileged into the title “Iraqi Arabic” because of the accident of power. In that sense, I would firmly deny that this book gives a complete picture of “Iraqi Arabic”.
- Widespread variation between i and u (kasra and dhamma) doesn’t seem to be adequately dealt with in any of the reference grammars on Eastern, Bedouin-type dialects. The Measure I active participle is given as CaaCiC/CaaCuC, and yet these are assumed to be different vowel phonemes in the phonology section.
This book is a standard reference for Muslim Baghdadi Arabic and I would highly recommend this book for anyone interested in systematic accounts of the dialects in this area; even for Gulf Arabic, the majority of the information would apply, which is why I got it in the first place. ( )
