| 2. I used BYKI all the time when I was learning Arabic |
|
Not great to use as a standalone, but it's a great supplementary tool.

| 4. Great for vocabulary acquisition... |

| 6. True, along with other grammatical language features. |
|
I don't see this as being a good way to become conversational, based on my look at it. Good vocabulary drills, though.
