Based on an unprecedented corpus--847 hours of spoken data and 1.18 million written words from 312 learners (A2-B2)--it ranks among the most comprehensive investigations of this language pair.\u003cbr\u003eDespite extensive lexical and typological overlap, Arabic L1 learners show persistent difficulties with the ezafe construction, compound verbs, and certain phonological contrasts--challenges predicted by contrastive analysis but previously under-documented empirically.\u003cbr\u003eThrough detailed error analysis and interlanguage tracking, this book identifies which predicted issues truly persist, offering robust evidence to replace intuition with data.\u003cbr\u003eSLA researchers gain a richly documented case of Persian interlanguage in an understudied population, advancing understanding of cross-linguistic influence in closely related, high-contact languages.\u003cbr\u003ePersian instructors working with Arabic speakers receive clear, evidence-based insights into genuine trouble spots plus practical pedagogical recommendations.\u003cbr\u003eCurriculum developers and program administrators find concrete, data-driven guidance for designing effective Persian programs tailored to Arabic L1 learners.\u003cbr\u003eAn essential resource for applied linguistics, second language acquisition, and language contact studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amir Karimipour\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3838222245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783838222240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ibidem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Amir Karimipour","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49148520136959,"sku":"9783838222240","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/contrastive-analysis-and-error-typology-amir-karimipour-9783838222240","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
