The War in Iraq Spurs Continued Demand for Arabic Courses and New Delivery Methods
for those Courses

Dallas, Texas- April 14, 2008

Despite the fact that the Al-Qaeda network have been in operation since the 1990s,
US intelligence organizations are still severely hampered by a deficiency in
obtaining sufficient Arabic language experts. Out of desperation and out of a lack
of success, the CIA, FBI and the military are turning to a variety of venues to find
speakers who can speak Farsi, Pashto, Dari, Turkmen, Uzbek, and of course Arabic.

In line with the growing need for Arabic language resources for diplomatic and
military personnel stemming from the continuing War in Iraq, the Ultimate Language
Store announces the release of an intensive course for learning Iraqi Arabic via
download available at http://www.ultimatelanguagestore.com.

Based on the popular Foreign Service Institute Course and DLI courses that have been
successfully used by thousands of students to learn Iraqi Arabic, the Ultimate
Language Store's Iraqi Arabic Dialect Course is now available via digital download.
The course provides an introduction for those who are unfamiliar with the Iraqi
dialect, and presumes a rudimentary understanding of Arabic.

This is the latest in a series of CD and download courses published by the Ultimate
Language Store. Other Arabic courses now offered via download include FSI Modern
Written Arabic levels 1 and 2, FSI Levantine Arabic, Iraqi Arabic Dialect
Dictionary, Saudi Arabic Head Start, and FSI Saudi Arabic.

The Iraqi Dialect Arabic course consists of eleven lessons: The first lesson focuses
on pronunciation and an introduction of Iraqi dialect sounds; lessons two through
eleven are designed around selected topic areas which highlight common situations
one might expect to encounter. Typical situations include greetings, use of courtesy
phrases, expressions of time and weather, and similar topics. These lessons
illustrate these topics using relevant dialogues, with an emphasis on the key
vocabulary related to that topic.

The Ultimate Language Store\'s Iraqi Arabic download version is available for $35 at
http://www.ultimatelanguagestore.com/inc/sdetail/34105 or by calling
1-888-310-3643.

The Ultimate Language Store provides language a variety of courses for learning 150
different languages and dialects.
