Co-written with Arabian horse breeder Kellie Kolodziejczyk, Bachir Bserani supplies more than just a mere listing of Arabic words with meanings. He transcends this by providing hand picked Arabic names that are easily pronounced by Roman language speakers. The Arabic names are written in both the masculine and feminine form in Romanized Arabic. Next to each name is the English meaning as well the phonetic pronunciation. This is a very important aspect of the book and is what sets this book apart from standard Arabic dictionaries. As with any language, if the sound is not spoken correctly, the meaning of the word may be altered.
What makes these books especially charming and unique is the narrative and stories written in the tradition of legendary Bedouin storytelling. With exotic tales of the desert, including some of the author's own personal experiences, the stories tug at the heart, bringing to the surface the love and admiration people throughout the world feel for these mystical and cherished creatures. This publication is a truly invaluable educational and reference tool. The Arabic names are suitable not only for Arabians including Domestic Arabians, Straight Egyptians, Desert Bred Arabians, and Half-Arabians, but also Thoroughbreds, Salukis, or any other Exotic Pets you may own.
Filled with breathtaking, full-color photographs throughout. The cover artwork for Volume I is by world renowned artist Andre Pater, and the front and back cover artwork for Volume II (as well as the artwork throughout the book) is by the world famous artist Ali Al Mimar. Volume I includes beautiful photography by Irene Tones, and Volume II includes the stunning photography of Gigi Grasso, Nasr Marei, Darryl Larson, and Rik Van Lent Jr., among others.
The companion audio CD for Authentic Arabian Horse Names Volume I is now available. See below for more information.
Now you can hear the magnificent voice of the author Bachir Bserani on his new audio CD Bachir Bserani — Authentic Arabian Horse Names. The audio CD is based on the Arabic-English section of the book Authentic Arabian Horse Names by Bachir Bserani with Kellie Kolodziejczyk. Bachir Bserani speaks each name individually in his native Arabic tongue and then gives the English translation. Listen and you will know if you are pronouncing the name authentically.
Enjoy the CD on its own or purchase the book as well and follow along. As a special bonus to his listeners, Mr. Bserani includes on the CD a never before published short story based on the legendary desert Arabian mare, Faridah.
