This volume, which went through several printings, was published at the Dominican Press in Mosul. It first presents the reader with the forms of the letters, then words with two letters, words with three letters, etc. Extended texts then follow: the Creed, the Ten Commandments, and the Commandments of Tobit. The book concludes with several pages of tables for various noun forms. This small practice book for learning to read Syriac still has pedagogical value today.

From the first centuries of the Christian era, Syriac was used by the main theological and historical writers of this tradition (Ephrem the Syrian, Philoxenus of Mabbogh, Thomas of Marga, and Barhebraeus). It also continues to be used in worship.
