[Athen] Learning Arabic with AT?

[Maria Ortado]

This may not be necessary, but I would also suggest that the student create
a separate account that they only use for Arabic. That way they will not
teach Dragon to recognize words they don't use in English. They could "save
as" their current profile to create the new one with all the settings in
place.
