Tajwīd (tr. 'making something good or better') is the discipline of proper Qur'anic recitation. It involves pronouncing each letter from its proper point of articulation and consistently giving it its due attributes. It is acquired by listening to those who have mastered it, emulating them, and being tested. Learning the theoretical rules of tajwīd is a communal obligation (Ar. farḍ kifāyah), while practicing it is an individual obligation (Ar. farḍ ʿayn). This book is a complete, annotated translation of Sheikh Sulaymān al-Jamzūrī's Tuḥfat al-Aṭfāl, a classical didactic poem on tajwīd, including the section on 'points of articulation' (Ar. maḵārij al-ḥurūf) from Imam Ibn al-Jazarī's intermediate-level poem on tajwīd.

Imagine having an energetic and passionate Spanish teacher walk right into your home and sit down to teach your students. That can virtually happen when children learn with Spanish for Children author Julia Kraut on the corresponding DVD and Chant CD set. Pronunciation will become a breeze and don't be surprised to hear even your youngest children picking up the catchy chants and songs. Each lesson (average length 15 minutes), corresponds to the weekly chapter in the Primer, and features Julia and her students chanting their weekly grammar charts and vocabulary, with visual images of the words. Following the vocabulary lesson, Julia Kraut carefully and thoroughly explains Spanish grammar, with the goal of teaching students to create their own sentences, and express exactly what they need to say, rather than simply mimicking common phrases.

This Greek Alphabet Primer is designed to introduce children ages 7-11 to the letters of the Greek alphabet. It teaches the Modern pronunciation that is used by the Orthodox Church, but the vocabulary words used for examples are taken from Biblical and liturgical Greek. The goal is to prepare children and families to learn to understand Greek as it is read and sung in Orthodox church services. But since Greeks pronounce Ancient, Biblical, and Medieval texts in the same way that they speak their own modern tongue, families will be able to use these resources to how to pronounce Modern Greek as well.Each of the 24 letter "chapters" contains: - a short introduction to the pronunciation and writing of the letter- an illustration of the shape of the uppercase letter with a pictureof a word beginning with that letter- a story of a saint whose name begins with the letter- an icon coloring page of that saint- a copywork page containing the name of the letter, the wordillustrating the letter, and the name of the saint
