Introduction:

Many people are wondering what they should expect if they start learning Arabic, How important is it? How hard or easy is it? Whether it has different rules from English (concerning Arabic Grammar, Arabic Vocabulary ...)First let's talk about how important Arabic is, Today Arabic is spoken throughout the Arabian Peninsula, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Mauritania, and Chad. It is the mother tongue of over 225 million people in Africa and Asia. And since the Qur'an is written in Arabic, people in other Muslim countries have from basic to advanced knowledge of Arabic like in Indonesia (largest Muslim population), Malaysia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Israel, India also has one of the world's largest Muslim populations, although Islam is not the principal religion there. Djibouti, Gambia, Guinea, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Somalia, and Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Tanzania (Zanzibar is predominantly Muslim), Nigeria ...and in many places where Islam is the dominant religion, or even among small Muslim communities, since Arabic is related directly to the Qur'an, the holy book of Muslim.

Arabic is like any other language, easy in some aspects and hard in some others, depending on the learner's background, and ability to adapt to new rules. A person whose mother tongue is Hebrew will find it easier than a person whose mother tongue is Spanish or English, because of the similarities, also a person who speaks more than one language is more likely to learn it easier, because his/her brain is already trained to deal with more than one language and adapt with new rules, new vocabulary...

And since Asian Academy of Business and Computers aims to make its graduates globally competitive, it makes it a compulsory requirement for every student to learn Arabic as their second foreign language next to English to make them more competitive and prepared for the globalized workplace.

MARHABA!

Module 1: The Arabic Alphabet.Arabic has 28 consonantal phonemes (including two semi-vowels). Arabic is different than English when it comes to the way it's written (right to left) and some sounds don't exist in English like the glottal stop, usually transliterated by (‘) like in the word علم elm (science). Also the consonants (q) and (gh) are the sounds produced the farthest back in the mouth in English (called 'velars' because the tongue touches the soft palate or velum), like in قلم qalam (pen), and loghah (language). (kh) which sounds like the Scottish ch as in (Loch Ness lake).The Arabic alphabet is written and read from right to left and horizontally. There are 28 letters in the Arabic alphabet, first let’s have a look at all of them in the table below:

As you may have noticed, some of the letters in Arabic don’t exist in English and vice versa. We will first go through the letters that exist in English, the table below shows the letters that you may not have any problem learning or pronouncing:

Now we will go through the Arabic letters that are either hard to pronounce or are pronounced a little bit differently, you shouldn’t worry if you can’t pronounce them the right way, because there are always close pronunciations in Arabic, and you still can be understood.

Reading Arabic:

Now that you know how to pronounce the Arabic letters, we will go through reading them, Arabic letters should be written connected to each other, you can simply think of it as if you’re writing in cursive in English, like in the example below you can see how the first WELCOME is written, then the second WELCOME which has all letters connected to each other, Unlike English, Arabic in most cases cannot be written with its letters separated from each other like the way we wrote the word WELCOME. Most letters should be connected like the way the second Welcome is written. There are some exceptions which we will go through in this lesson.

To read Arabic you should know that the Arabic alphabet letters have up to 3 forms, each letter takes a form depending on its position in the word, look at the example below and you will notice that a letter has a form at the beginning of the word, in the middle of the word and at the end of the word, some letters however can keep the same form in one or two positions. Compare the m in the two examples below, the M of come has a longer tail than the M of the room because of the position of m, the same thing happens in Arabic. The form that a letter takes depends on its position in a given word, and the difference most of the time is very small, like a longer tail to allow it connect with another letter following it.

The table below shows the three forms that a letter can take, a letter in a blue font shows a letter starting a word, the red font shows a letter in the middle of the word, and the black font shows a letter at the end of the word, as you may have noticed, there is no big different between the three forms.

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيJust a tip for you: most of the time the letter at the end looks exactly like the letter when it’s alone.

Arabic Alphabet List:

**: letters having stars next to them can only connect with other letters placed before them and not after, which means that if a letter is placed after them, that letter should take a form as if it was placed in the beginning of the word.Note also that the letters I marked with stars in the table above never connect with other letters marked with stars either before or after.So you have to be careful with these starred letters, because sometimes they may make you

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيthink that they’re the last letter of a word because they have that form of an ending letter, while in the reality they may not be the last letter of the word. The table below may explain it better:

Module 2. Vowel system in ArabicLearning how to read Arabic characters and how to pronounce it will make it very easy for you to learn the language, and avoid counting on transliterations that are not really reliable.

Short Vowels in Arabic:

In Arabic short vowels are not a part of the Arabic alphabet, instead they are written as marks over or below the consonant and sometimes over or below a long vowel. To make it easy we will take an example in English: the word Canada is written as CNDA but using Arabic Alphabet, the vowel A between C and N and between N and D are omitted, instead they’re replaced by small symbols, especially because they’re only short vowels, you see the little dashes on the top of C and on the top of N in the image below, they’re called FATHA in Arabic, meaning the short vowel “A” in English, so instead of writing a word full of vowels in Arabic, we only write the FATHA on the top of a consonant to indicate a short vowel “A”, and also we have symbols referring to short vowel “E” or “I” , and also a symbol for short vowel “O” , actually this is a good idea, because it’s saving space and also has an other advantage that we will see later. You may have noticed that the consonant D and the vowel A don’t have any symbols on the top of them in the image below, that’s because the “A” at the end is considered a long vowel in this word, so it’s the vowel of “D”, no need to add another vowel on the top of “D” since the long vowel “A” is already helping us pronounce the word the right way. Now you can look at the word Canada in Arabic; you will see that it has the exact symbols as the word

CNDA .

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي

The table below shows other types of symbols referring to Arabic short vowels. First we see Washington the way it’s written in English, and then we can see it using English Alphabet but Arabic symbols of short vowels. And finally you can see the word in Arabic with its full short vowels.

“WA” as you noticed doesn’t need a symbol, because the “W” is followed by a long vowel “A”, “SH” is not followed by a vowel, which means that we need to add a short vowel referring to “i”, and indeed we added one already, it’s the tick below the “SH” which is called KASRAH, you can also see it marked as (#3). The “N” has a small circle on the top of it, that symbol is called SUKOUN (marked as # 4 in the table below) referring to a consonant without a vowel, So any time we have a consonant that doesn’t have a vowel, we just add that small circle on the top, note that the SUKOUN should always be placed on the top and never below a consonant. So we used the Sukoun in this word because we didn’t say NA NO NI but we just said N. Now let’s look at the T, it has a little symbol which looks like comma on the top of the letter, that symbol is called DAMMAH (# 2 in the table above) referring to a short vowel “O” , so when we add DAMMAH to the letter “T”, we will get “TO”, easy, isn’t it! And finally as we have seen before, the final N has another SUKOUN meaning that the N is without a Vowel, and should be pronounced N full stop.

Page 9: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيLet’s review what we just went through.1 = FATHA = Short Vowel “A”2 = DAMMAH = Short Vowel “O” or “U”3 = KASRAH = Short Vowel “I” or “E”4 = SUKOUN = Used for consonants lacking a vowel after them.

5 =FATHATAIN= double FATHA (FATHA on the top of another FATHA)= FATHA + N= the short vowel “A”+ N: Ghadan = غدا =Tomorrow

6 =KASRATAIN= double KASRAH (KASRAH on the top of another KASRAH)= KASRAH+ N= the short vowel “i” or “e”+ N: Kuratin =كرة =a ball

7 =DAMMATAIN= double DAMMAH (DAMMAH next to another DAMMAH)= DAMMAH+ N= the short vowel “o” or “u”+ N: Kitabun= Lكتاب =a book

Note that # 5, 6, 7 are not used as much as 1-4, also note that # 5, 6, 7 are only used at the end of a wordLong Vowels in Arabic:

The table below shows the long vowels in Arabic, they’re considered long vowels because of the stress they put on a given vowel, same thing exists in English, the word “exceed” should be stressed in the vowels “ee” or “loose” the stress in the “oo”, note that these long vowels are also considered some kind of consonants ( their pronunciation as a consonant can be found on the page” ARABIC ALPHABET”.

There is also the SHADDAH, it’s the symbol marked as number 1 on the image below, used when we have a double consonant, like instead of writing the proper name (ANNA with double “N”, we only write it with one N and add SHADDAH on the top of N, the example # 2 shows how the SHADDAH placed on the top of the letter T in Arabic, the transliteration of the word is QATTA’A which mean the verb “to cut” in Arabic it’s written QATA’A and instead of writing double T, the word has only one T and a SHADAH on the top of it. Example # 3 shows a little symbol on the top of the ALIF which looks like the Latin ~, it’s called

Page 10: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيMAD, and mostly used on the top of ALIF to express a long “A” something like “AA”, the word shown in example # 4 is AAB, it means the month of August, but the MAD is not used that often, so you will come across it but rarely.

Finally, This may surprise you but short vowels in Arabic are not used that often, you may come across them if two words look the same and the writer wants you to distinguish between them so that they won’t be confused, the person would than add only the vowel which doesn’t exist in the other word, but other than that sometimes you can read a whole text without coming across any short vowel. The reason is that in Arabic most words are distinctive without short vowels; I will give you an example in English in the Image below:

It doesn’t take that much thinking to know what do these words mean, I omitted 2 vowels from Canada for example, and two vowels from the word Computer ... that’s how reading Arabic works. Sometimes we have to add a vowel because it’s a long vowel and not a short one like the “a” in Cnda.

Page 11: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيBelow is an example of how the verb “to write” is written in Arabic, it’s written كتب which is

equal to “ktb” in Latin alphabet, but we don’t read it like “ktb” but as “kataba”, as you have noticed 3 vowels are added when you pronounce it, but when you write it, only the consonants are enough to give us an idea about the word. Writing only one verb in Arabic alphabet without short vowels saved you the time to write 3 vowels, imagine how much it could save you when

you write a text…

In short, short vowels that are presented as symbols are not important to read Arabic, but they make it easy to read for beginner and also to avoid confusion between two similar looking words.Try to master these Arabic vowels as they’re very important for beginners.

I used the blue font sometimes in transliteration to distinguish between the female and male gender, which is not that different from the masculine form, just an extra “i” or “a” …The tick (‘) is for a sound like soundless “a” or a stop just to make closer to the real sound which doesn’t exist in English.The “th” is sometimes pronounced as “th of that” and sometimes as “th of think”, I usually state how you should pronounce it.There is a sharp “h” that is different from the regular “h”, however a person can be understood even if it’s pronounced as a regular “h”.I hope the content of this page was useful to you, and that you learned some Arabic phrases, expressions and words.

Module 4: Arabic Definitive Articles

Arabic Definite Articles:

The definite article in Arabic is formed by adding the prefix “al” to the noun, “al” is equal to “the” in English and it should be connected to the noun. Examples: the boy = al walad ولدال ,the

girl = al bent بنتال ,the house = al bait بيتال .

The definite article “al ,ال “ is not all the time pronounced as “al”, the “al” would be pronounced as “a” instead of “al” if it precedes one of the following letters: (t - ت ,th- ث ,d - د ,dh -ذ ,r-

( ن- n, ظ- z, ط - t, ض -d, ص- s, ش -sh, س- s, ز- z, رThis process is called assimilation. An easy way to make the pronunciation easier, just like the way English does with the indefinite article “a” (a book, but an eagle).

The sky = assamaa السماء (instead of alsamaa) because sky =samaa سماء starts with a (s س which is part of the letters above.)

The moon = alqamar القمر ,since the letter q ق is not in the list above we can always use the full “al” with it.

Note that the omission of the letter “l” is only in pronunciation and not in writing.

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي

Examples:

Arabic Definite Articles

When the “l” is omitted (assimilation) When the “l” is not omitted (no assimilation)

The merchant = attajer التاجر (merchant = tajer تاجر )

The notebook = addaftar الدفتر (notebook = daftar (دفتر

The painting = arrasm الرسم (painting = rasm رسم)

The time = azzaman الزمن (time = zaman زمن)

The eagle = annasr النسر (eagle = nasr نسر )

These are just examples of words starting with the letters below:

(t - ت ,th- ث ,d - د ,dh -ذ ,r -ر ,z -ز ,s -س ,sh- ش ,s -ص , d -ض ,t - ط ,z -ظ ,n -ن )

The moon = alqamar القمر (moon = qamar قمر )

The sunset = alghuroub الغروب(sunset =ghuroub ( غروب

The eye = al’ayn العين(eye = ‘ayn عين )

The king = almalik الملك(king = malik ملك )

The present = alhadiah الهدية(present = hadiah ( الهدية

These are just examples of the rest of alphabets that no assimilation is needed for, so you can use the “al” without omitting the “l”. the letters the assimilation is not needed for are:

(a - أ ,b ب ,j ج ,h ح , kh ع, ‘ خ ,gh غ ,f ف ,q ق ,k ك ,l ل ,m م ,n ن , h هـ ,w و ,yaي

)

Note that whenever an assimilation is needed you need to double the first consonant coming after the first “a” in the word, to understand it more look at the table above.

Module 5. Arabic Indefinite Articles

Arabic Indefinite Articles:To use the indefinite article in Arabic, there is not much that you can add, just leave the word with no article, especially when you write in Arabic alphabet, there is a small modification however that occurs to the tail of the word, called nunation (adding the suffix “un”):

A house = bait +un = baitun تبيت ,the “un” is expressed by this symbol ( ُ ُُ ُ or LLLL ) when written in Arabic alphabet, like in the example of: baitun = بيت .

A sun = shams+un = Shamsun شمس , a dog = kalbunكلب , a tree = shajaratun شجرة ,a student = tilmeedun تلميذ ,a language = lugatun لغة .

Since the nunation is a property of the indefinite article you cannot apply it to the definite article,

The star = annajm النجم ,a star = najmun نجم .

Module 6: Arabic Numbers

The table below shows examples of Arabic numbers. The first and the fifth columns have numbers used in some Arab countries; they’re not of Arabic origins but still used in many places especially copies of the Holy Qur’an …. Nowadays what we call the Arabic numbers are the numbers shown on the columns 2 and 6, which are used by the Arab world as well as the rest of the world.

Forming numbers in Arabic is quite easy, from 13 to 19 you just place a number before ten for example 13 = three ten, instead of thirteen in English, 17 is seven ten in Arabic. From 21 to 99 you just need to reverse the numbers and add (wa- between the two numbers) 36 would be six wa- thirty instead of thirty six (sitta wa-thalathun), (wa means and).

0 is sifr in Arabic, from which the word cipher came. For 11 and 12 they’re irregular, so just remember how to write them by now (11 = ehda ‘ashar, 12 = ithna ‘ashar).

So in general, numbers standing alone are easy to use, or say. The hard part is that numbers 3 to 10 have a unique rule of agreement with nouns known as polarity: A numeral in masculine gender should agree with a feminine referrer and vice versa (thalathatu awlaad = three boys), boys are masculine plural, so the feminine form of number 3 should be used (which is thalathatu, and not thalathu which is the masculine form, the u at the end of numbers is used when a number is followed by another word to make an easy jump to the next word) (thalathu banaat = three girls) banaat = girls, which is feminine plural, therefore a masculine form of number 3 should be used (thalathu). That may sound complicated but once you get used to it, it will not be as hard as it seems now, besides most Arab natives make mistakes or simply don’t care about matching the gender and the number.

Arabic Ordinal Numbers:Ordinal numbers in Arabic are almost like the cardinal numbers, with some exceptions in the numbers from 1 to 10, and a slight difference in numbers from 11 and up.

Note that ordinal numbers in Arabic are somehow like adjectives, so they have to take the masculine, or feminine form. Please check the adjectives page for more information.

Arabic Cardinal Numbers

Third Thaleth Thaletha

Fourth Rabe’ Rabe’a

Sixth Sadis Sadisa

Seventh Sabe’ Sabe’a

Eighth Thamen Thamena

Ninth Tase’ Tase’a

Tenth acher achera

Eleventh Hady achar Hadiata achar

Twelfth Thani achar Thania achar

After 10 only the first number takes the feminine, for example 13th

is thaleth achar for masculine, and

thalethata achar for feminine, achar stays the same, the first half “thaleth” which means 3rd

takes “a” in the feminine, and so does the rest of the ordinal number, except ten numbers like 20, 30, 40, 50, they look like cardinal numbers but they add “a” as a prefix for numbers starting with a consonant, for

example: 70 = sab’un, 70th

= asab’un (for both masculine and feminine), and they add “al” for ten

numbers starting with a vowel, like: 40= arba’un, 40th

= alarba’un.

MODULE 7 ARABIC SUBJECT PRONOUNS

Arabic Subject Pronouns:In Arabic the subject pronoun is more specific than many other languages, for example there are different ways to say “you” in Arabic depending on who you’re addressing it to, for example to address 2 people you use a subject pronoun different than the one you would use for a single person, also if you’re addressing more than two people you will have to use a different form for that as well. Finally most of subject pronouns have a feminine and a masculine form. The table below shows the different forms you may come across:

Arabic Subject Pronouns

Singular Dual Plural

I أنا Ana

you (singular masculine). أنت Anta

you (singular feminine ) أنت Anti

he هو Howa

she هي Hiya

you (dual male or female )ماuأنت Antuma

they (dual male or female )ماuه Humaa

We نحن Nahn

you (plural masculine ) مuأنت Antum

you (plural feminine) نuأنت Antun

they (plural masculine ) مuه Hum

they (plural feminine ) نuه Hun

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual

Page 27: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيTo say for example I’m a boy = Ana walad! (Ana = I, walad = boy) as you may have noticed “am” and “a” are omitted in Arabic, so it’s like saying “I boy”, same thing with all other subject pronouns. He is a boy = Howa walad (he boy), we’re boys = Nahnu* Awlad (we boys), You may also have noticed that Arabic has a “dual” form, meaning that Arabic is being more specific about not only the gender but also the number, so the dual form is used to refer to two people, if you want to talk to Salim and Karim to tell them: you both speak Arabic! = Antuma

tatakallamani al ‘arabia تتكل�مان العربية انتما ,if you want to talk about them: they both speak Arabic = Humaa yatakalamani al ‘arabia هما يتكلمان العربية .

For the plural there are five subject pronouns, We = Nahn (for females and males). You = Antum (when you talk to 3 males or more, or one male and the 2 females or more) You = Antun (when you talk to 3 females or more). They = Hum (when you talk about 3 males or more, or one male and the 2 females or more). They = Hun (when you talk about 3 females or more).* Some subject pronouns take an extra vowel at the end when they’re followed by other words, to make the pronunciation smooth and easy, just like when you add an “n” to the indefinite article “a” to some words, “an umbrella” instead of “a umbrella” to make it easier to pronounce, same thing in Arabic, we add either “u” or “a” to many words to make them go in harmony with other words following them, we will go through that later, but for now you can keep using the articles without these vowels especially because you will be still understood even without adding them.

Arabic Object Pronouns:

Object pronouns in Arabic are me, you, him, her, us, you (plural) and come after a verb; In Arabic they’re as follows:

Arabic Object Pronouns

Singular Dual Plural

Me: verb+ni ني

You (masculine): verb+k vvك

You (dual male or female): verb+kumaa كuما

Them (dual male or female): verb+humaa ماuه

We: verb+naa نا

You (plural masculine): verb+kum كuم

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيYou (feminine): verb+ki

Him: verb+h ، ـه ه

Her: verb+ha ها

You (plural feminine): verb+kun نuك

Them (plural masculine): verb+hum هuم

Them (plural feminine): verb+hun هuن

So to say in Arabic “you show me”, after conjugating the verb and adding the “you” to it, you need to add the object pronoun “me” to it as well, note that “you show me” in Arabic is written like “youshowme” meaning that the subject pronoun + the verb + the object pronoun are all connected, “you” as a prefix and “me” as a suffix of the verb “show”, so it would be (you show

me = turini نيتُري ( )you show us = turina ناتري ) ( you show him = turih هتري .)Try to memorize these Arabic Pronouns, as they’re very important.

Arabic Determinative Possessive Pronouns:Similar to the Arabic object pronouns, the determinative possessive pronouns look the same, the only difference is that they end a noun and not a verb like above. So to learn how to say “my house” “his car” “her dress” …you need to look at the table below:

Arabic Determinative Possessive Pronouns

Singular Dual Plural

Me: noun+i ي

You (masculine): noun+k vvك

You (dual male or female): noun+kumaa كuما

Them (dual male or female): noun+humaa ماuه

We: noun+naa نا

You (plural masculine): noun+kum كuم

You (feminine): noun+ki Yك

Him: noun+h ، ـه ه

Her: noun+ha ها

You (plural feminine): noun+kun كuن

Them (plural masculine): noun+hum هuم

Them (plural feminine): noun+hun هuن

In Arabic you have to use the possessive pronouns above as a suffix, meaning that they should be ending the word (noun), here are some examples:

Book = Kitab كتاب

My book = Kitabi كتابي Your book = kitabuk كتابك Your book (singular female) = Kitabuki كتابك

His book = Kitabuh كتابه Her book = Kitabuha كتابها Your book (dual male or female) = Kitabukumaa كتابكما Their book (dual male or female) = Kitabuhumaa كتابهما

Our book = Kitabuna كتابنا Your book (plural masculine) = Kitabukum كتابكم Your book (plural feminine) = Kitabukun كتابكن Their book (plural masculine) = Kitabuhum كتابهم Their book (plural feminine) = kitabuhun كتابهن

Arabic Prepositional Pronouns: (to me, for you, about her …any pronoun with a preposition preceding it)

It’s easy to use the prepositional pronouns in Arabic; you just add the suffix below to the preposition, which looks exactly like the ones we learn before in the possessive object, above:

Arabic Prepositional Pronouns

Me: preposition+i ي

You (masculine): preposition+k vvك

You (feminine): preposition+ki Yك

Him: preposition+h ، ـه ه

Her: preposition+ha ها

You (dual male or female): preposition+kumaa ماuك

Them (dual male or female): preposition+humaa ماuه

We: preposition+naa نا

You (plural masculine): preposition+kum مuك

You (plural feminine): preposition+kun نuك

Them (plural masculine): preposition+hum مuه

Them (plural feminine): preposition+hun نuه

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيSo to say “come to me” we would add the prepositional pronoun “me = i” to the Arabic

preposition “to = ila”, so “come to me = taala ilai = يتعال إل“

Said to me = qaal li ي قال ل .

Arabic Independent Possessive Pronouns:

In Arabic the independent possessive pronoun is used to express “mine, yours, hers….”

Example: the book is mine: al kitab li ليالكتاب, the drink is ours: al mashroob lana لناالمشروب .The table below shows the independent possessive pronouns:

Arabic Independent Possessive Pronouns

Singular Dual Plural

Mine li لي

yours (sing masculine) lak لك

yours (singular feminine) laki لك

his lah له

hers laha لها

yours (dual male or female) lakumaa لكما

theirs (dual male or female) lahumaa لهما

Ours lana لنا

yours (plural masculine) lakum لكم

yours (plural feminine) lakun لكن

theirs (plural masculine) lahum لهم

theirs (plural feminine) lahun لهن

You can also use the word “milk” to form independent possessive, the word milk ملك means

Module 7 Feminine Pronouns

In this lesson we will learn how to deal with Arabic nouns, especially how to form the feminine from the masculine, than how to form the plural from a singular, once you learn how to do it, you will also be able to form them vice versa easily.

Masculine to Feminine in Arabic:

To form a feminine word from the masculine in Arabic, you simply add “taa’ marbuta” which looks like (ة ) or ( ـة )depending on the word it’s connected to. Usually for animals, humans

and professions… for example:

kalbكلب (dog masculine) è kalba ةكلب(dog feminine)

tefl طفل (child masculine) è tefla ةطفل (child feminine )

mohandes مهندس (engineer masculine) è mohandesa ةمهندس(engineer feminine)

It’s possible also for most adjectives & some other nouns:

Sadeeq صديق (friend masculine) è Sadeeqa ةصديق (friend feminine)

Hazeen حزين (sad masculine) è hazeena ةحزين (sad feminine)

Kabeer كبير (big masculine) è kabeera ةكبير (big feminine )

However not all animals or humans masculines can take a “taa’ marbuta( ”(ــة, ة in their feminine form, for example:

Asad أسد (lion) è Labo’a لبؤة(lioness)

But

Walad ولد (boy) è Bent بنت (girl )

In Arabic, words are either masculine or feminine, so anything you may think of should take

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved32

Page 33: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيeither feminine or masculine form, now you can recognize if a word is feminine or masculine by its ending, for example:

Qessa ةقص (story (is feminine because as you may have noticed it has “taa’ marbuta( ”(ــة, ة at the end of the word, similar are :

Shajara شجرة (tree), Saheefa صحيفة (newspaper), Kora كرة (ball), Ghorfa غرفة (room), Bohaira بحيرة (lake) … and therefore the adjective following these feminine words should also take the

feminine form (add a “taa’ marbuta( ”(ــة, ة to them)

Most Arabic nouns are considered masculine if no “taa’ marbuta” is connected to them, however like any other language there are exceptions:

Arabic Nouns

Sky سماء samaa’ is feminine even if there is no “taa’ marbuta ”((ــة, ة at the end of the word,

Windريح reeh is feminine even if it’s not ending with a “taa’ marbuta.”Also some masculine proper names are ending with “taa’ marbuta” but still considered masculine

name for example: osama ةأسام ,hamza ةحمز .

The good news is that they are not many, and the general rule is “add a “taa’ marbuta( ”(ــة, ة to form the feminine from a masculine word, and omit it to form the masculine.”

Module 9 Arabic verbs

In Arabic verbs take their infinitive form by using the past form of that verb and conjugate it to the third person singular “he”, to make it simple here is an example: to draw = rasama = رسم (he drew), to write = kataba (he wrote) = كتب. daraba ضرب (to hit)…

Most verbs in Arabic have a three letters root or stem, there are also verbs containing more than three letters in their root (stem) but we will start with verbs shaving a three consonant stem, also called trilateral verbs, since the trilateral verbs (containing three consonant) are the most common.

In Arabic we use a “masdar” “source” to show how a verb is conjugated and what forms it takes, normally for a three letters verb we use:

fa’ala = فعل =to do (literally in Arabic it means “he did”), this verb is used as an example or model to help us know how to conjugate other verbs having the same characteristics .

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved33

Page 34: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيWe take for instance the verb: to draw = rasama = رسم as you can see it in Arabic it has only three

consonant (R ر ,S س ,M م ,)this verb sounds exactly like our model verbs (fa’ala فعل )when it comes to its vowels, and that’s all we care about, ignore the similarity or difference in the consonants, what matters is the similarity in the vowels and the number of letters, because you will replace the consonant in our examples and put your own there, to make it more simple we will take a random word phonetically similar to our verb “fa’ala” “ lalala” sounds like “rasama” if you compare its vowels and the

number of consonants, other examples are: dahaba ذهب (to go), haraba هرب(to run away), kataba كتب(to write), nasaha نصح(to advise), daraba ضرب (to hit), in fact most Arabic verbs are formed this way. They

all seem to have the same tune.Now to form the present tense with this kind of verbs, we first take our stem from the verb, in other words, extract all vowels from the verb, for example the verb to draw = rasama, once we extract all vowels we will end up having “rsm” , now this stem is ready to be modeled. Look at the table below:

Arabic Present tense:

To form the present tense in Arabic you need to extract the stem from the verb in the infinitive first, for example:

To draw = rasama رسم è Stem is rsm, now let’s look at the table below to see how this verb is conjugated in this tense:

Present Tense in Arabic

Singular Dual Plural

I draw = arsumu

you draw (singular masculine) = tarsumu

you draw (singular feminine) = tarsumeena

he draws = yarsumu

you draw (dual male or female) = tarsumani

they draw (dual male or female) = yarsumani

we draw = narsumu

you draw (plural masculine) = tarsumuna

your draw (plural feminine) = tarsumna

they draw (plural masculine) =

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

Page 35: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي

she draws = tarsumu

yarsumuna

they draw (plural feminine) = yarsumna

Each form of the verb rasama above contains:

Blue font (that’s what you need to keep, the blue font shouldn’t be modified or removed from verb, it stays the same)

Red font (that’s what you need to delete and add your own consonant of the verb you chose to conjugate: kataba è ktb, haraba è hrb…)

Green font (you can keep that one too, but not all the time, sometimes it becomes “a” or “i” instead of “u” depending on the verb)

You may have noticed that the “rs” of the stem “rsm” are always together, that’s the case with all trilateral verbs (verbs with three consonants, which are the most frequently used verbs in Arabic) the first and second consonant go together, so you can use this table with other verbs as well by replacing the letters in red (the stem we used before) and put your own verb stem instead.

The vowel in green may change to “a” or “i” depending on the verb, like for example for the verb nasaha (to advise) instead of using the “u” in green we have to change it to “a” I advise = ansahu, you advise = tansahu…(and not ansuhu .. tansuhu) and so on… (Note that the stem here is “n.s.h” as we mentioned earlier), for the verb daraba (to hit) we use “i” instead, I hit = adribu, he hits = yadribu. (and not adrubu)…

In case you think that this is too complicated, I will tell you that it’s not something unusual, and if you’re a native or learned Spanish, French, German or even English before, you will notice that the vowels in the middle of some verbs sometimes don’t really follow the rule, Examples:

Spanish: yo hablo = I speak, if you follow this rule you would use yo dormo for the verb dormir, but instead Spanish is using yo duermo = I sleep

French: the verb “appeler” if you respect the French rules you may write: je m’appele = my name, but instead the correct form is “je m’appelle” with “ll”

German: the verb “sehen” to see, by following the general German rule we should write: he sees = er seht, but instead the correct form is er sieht.

English: simply take the verb “to go” I go, you go, he gos? Of course not, the right form is he goes as you know. All these examples are not considered irregularities but semi irregularities, which means that they’re modified only for phonetic and synthetic reasons).

If you don’t know how to extract the stem from a verb (even though it’s very easy) we will go through it

now: by omitting all vowels from these verbs we will have: dhb = dahaba ذهب (to go), hrb = haraba هرب(Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual

Note that the second person singular masculine “you” is conjugated the same way the third person singular feminine “she” does. Tarsumu = you draw (singular masculine) and also means she draws.

If you scroll down to the bottom of this page you will find a list of 122 trilateral verbs, they will help you train yourself conjugate them to the right tense.

The past Tense in Arabic:

To form the past tense in Arabic you need to extract the stem from the verb in the infinitive first, for example:

To write = kataba è stem is ktb, now let’s look at the table below to see how this verb is conjugated in this tense:

Past Tense in Arabic

Singular Dual Plural

I wrote = katabtu

you wrote (singular masculine) = katabta

you wrote (singular feminine) = katabti

he wrote = kataba

she wrote = katabat

they wrote (dual male or female) = katabaa

we wrote = katabna

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي katabna

This is very easy and simple! You can put almost all trilateral Arabic verbs in this table. First take the verb you want to conjugate, extract all its 3 consonants, put them in place of the 3 red consonant on the table above. As you may have noticed, look at how the three consonants are spread in the word katabtu, consonant+ vowel+ consonant+ vowel+ consonant…

I will make the same note I made before in the present tense, you will have to change the vowel in the green font into “i”, the only difference this time is that you won’t have to do it that often as the case with the present tense, because the “a” is more used. Do you remember the two verbs (to advise = nasaha, and to hit = daraba) that we conjugated differently in the present tense, in the past tense they can be conjugated the same way as rasama & kataba , like I said before many verbs will follow the general rules of the table above when it comes to the past tense unlike the present tense.

To conjugate your own trilateral verb into the past tense go to the table and have your verb stem ready (don’t tell me you forgot how to make a stem from a trilateral verb)

It should contain three consonant and no vowels, if you want to conjugate it in the paste tense then replace the first consonant on the table above in red “k” with the first consonant of the stem you have of your own verb, then replace “t” with the second consonant you have, finally replace “b” with the last consonant you have, and that’s it!

Example: I wrote = katabtu , if you want to use “I went” (1 step is to find the verb to go in the Arabic infinitive: the verb is dahaba = to go, 2: the stem is dhb, 3: omit the (k, t, b) stem in the table above and put yours, you will easily get è dahabtu!!)

Note: in case you’re confused whether to replace the “a” in the green font with “i” or not, I would just tell you that if you’re a beginner just leave the “a”, because “a” is the most common, but I would also suggest to read more about the forms that most of verbs take so that you will easily decide whether to put “a” or “i” when conjugating verbs into the past tense in Arabic.

Future Tense in Arabic:

To form the Arabic future tense simply use: sa or sawfa + (the verb in present tense).

Examples: sa aktubu (I will write), sa adhabu (I will go), or if you want to use sawfa: sawfa aktubu (I will go), sawfa adhabu (I will go). Isn’t that a piece of cake!

There is no difference between sa and sawfa, to make it easy you can choose to use sa most of the time so that you won’t get confused.

The easiest way to learn how to conjugate Arabic verbs to the present tense is to look at the table below:

It’s very easy to put hundreds of verbs in the model above, just replace the numbers with the

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved47

Page 48: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيthree consonants of the verb:

# 2 = first consonant, # 3 = second consonant, # 4 = third consonant. You will notice that there are some letters before the numbers 2, 3, 4, you shouldn’t replace the letters, the only thing you should replace are the numbers, vowels (symbols) + the letters should stay.

For example the verb (to draw) is (rasama رسم )in Arabic, to conjugate it into the first person

singular (I draw), try to use the form next to ( I do) on the top, which is , in other words, always use the Alef أ as a first letter for the first person singular, then replace the letter # 2 with

the first consonant of the verb you’re conjugating (in our case it’s the verb رسم )meaning that the number 2 should be replaced with“ ر ” ,number 3 should be replaced with the second consonant which

is 4, # س should be replaced with the third consonant which is the letter م . if you followed the

steps the right way, then you will end up having مسسرأu which means “I draw”, this rule applies to the trilateral verbs (with some exceptions), you can do the same thing with the rest, the table below

shows how I replaced the numbers 2, 3, 4 with the consonants م, س , ر) + the letters that are unchanged like the Alef أ for the first person singular, the unchanged ( t ت )for the second person

singular and so on…and the most important is the vowels or symbols on the top of each consonant.

Please pay extra attention to the harakaat written in Arabic, the three small symbols ( َ ُِ ) are

very important in the tables below and above, because they play the role of vowels, ( ََََََََ = vowel a) ( ُُُُُُ = vowel u) ( ِِِِِِِِ = vowel i or e,)

Singular Dual

I draw = arsumu مسسرأu

you draw (singular masculine) = tarsumu مسرتu

you draw (singular feminine) = tarsumeena مسرتuينY

he draws = yarsumu ريvمسu

you draw (dual male or female) = tarsumani رتvمسuانv

they draw (dual male or female) = yarsumani ريvمسuانv

MODULE 10. ARABIC ADJECTIVES

Unlike English Arabic adjectives follow the noun they modify, which is somehow easier, because when you start with the noun first you will easily modify the adjective that comes afterwards accordingly either to its masculine, feminine, dual or plural form.

A small house: baitun sagheer بيت صغير (literally house small.)

Just like Spanish & German …, Arabic has masculine and feminine adjective forms, we learned in a previous lesson how to form the feminine from masculine in nouns, same steps will be taken to form feminine adjectives too.Let’s go over the rule of forming feminine from masculine form, which includes feminine adjectives with some:

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved49

Page 50: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي In Arabic to form a feminine adjective from the masculine, you simply add “taa’ marbuta” which

looks like( (ــة, ة to the end of the adjective… for example:

Arabic Adjectives

Big: Kabeer كبير (masculine) è Big: kabeera ةكبير (feminine)

Small: Sagheer صغير (masculine) è Small: sagheera ةصغير (feminine )

Beautiful: Jameel جميل (masculine) è Beautiful: jameela ةجميل(feminine)

Note that adding the “taa’ marbuta ــة, ة “ is not always the case to form the feminine of a masculine adjective. There are some exceptions to this:

Colors and most adjectives starting with “a “ ”أ “ for example take in most cases a different form, which is represented in this model word è (?a??aa’), the steps to model our feminine irregular adjective is: extract the consonants from the masculine adjective and place them respectively in the place of the question marks, here are some examples:

Blue è azraq أزرق (masculine) è zrq (raw consonants) è (?a??aa’) raw model è zarqaa ’ زرقاء (after replacing the ??? with the consonants)

Dumb è abkam أبكم (masculine) è bkm (raw consonants) è (?a??aa’) raw model è bakmaa’ (after replacing the ??? with the consonants) بكماء

Dual Adjectives in Arabic:

To form a dual masculine adjective in Arabic we simply add “aan“ ”ان “ to the end of the adjective, note that you can do that even with adjectives starting with “a “ ”أ“ ,

Big è kabeer كبير (masculine singular) è Big è kabeeraan انكبير (masculine dual)

Blue è azraq أزرق (masculine singular) è Blue è azraqaan انأزرق (masculine dual )

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved50

Page 51: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيTo form a dual feminine adjective add “ataan “ ”تان “ to the masculine adjective:

Big è kabeer كبير (masculine singular) è Big è kabeerataan انكبيرت (feminine dual)

For adjectives starting with “a “ ”أ “ the dual feminine will take the “?a??awataan” form, by replacing the question marks with our consonants:

Blue è azraq أزرق (masculine singular) è Blue è zarqawaan زرقاوان (feminine dual) (after replacing the “?” of ?a??awataan with azraq consonants)

Plural adjective in Arabic:

The way to form a plural adjective is the same way you form a plural noun, we already discussed that in a separate page (forming the plural)Just remember that the adjective follows the noun, and not the opposite like in English.

Good: jayyed جيد

Bad: sayye ’ سيء

MODULE 11. ARABIC COMPARISONS

Comparison in Arabic:

To form comparison or express equality in Arabic we add the word “methla مثل “or the prefix “ka ك "to the thing or person compared with, for example:

He is as tall as Ali = howa taweel methla Ali علي مثلهو طويل or howa taweel kaAli علي كهو طويل

That horse is as fast as an arrow = hisaani saree’ methla arromh الرمح مثلحصاني سريع or hisaani saree’ karromh الرمح كحصاني سريع

Superiority in Arabic:

To express Superiority Arabic uses the word “akthar + (adjective turned into noun+an)+…. men من...اكثر “

A is more beautiful than B = A akthar jamalan men B أ اكثر جمال من ب , Grammatically it’s: subject+ akthar + (noun of adjective+an) + men + object. He is more diligent than Ahmad è howa akthar ejteehadan men Ahmad.

Remember that Arabic starts from right to left when you write it with Arabic alphabet.

Everest is higher than Kilimanjaro = Everest akthar ‘olowwan men Kelimanjaro كليمانجارو من اعلوأكثر افرست or كليمانجارو من أعلىإفرست

Fatima is younger than Sofia = Fatima asghar men Sofia صوفيا من أصغرفاطمة *

Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual دليل التعلم بالعربيه

2007 all rights reserved61

Page 62: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربي *Like in English, Arabic can take more than one form to form the superiority, in English we can say: the

Pacific is deeper than the Mediterranean or we can simply say the pacific is more deep than the Mediterranean (even though the last example is less used and less grammatical), same thing in Arabic,

to form superiority there are two ways, either by using “more …than è akthar …~an men من...ا.. اكثر“ or by modeling the adjective to it’s superiority form, for example

more cute than… = akthar jamaalan men … أكثر جمال من

cuter than … = ajmal men … أجمل من

If you’re a beginner you may want to stick with the first method, because the second one has some irregularities and depends on the adjective and also because sometimes it’s not possible to form the superlative that way, same thing in English where you cannot say:…beautifler than … instead we say : it’s more beautiful than …

This is how to form the superiority using the second method which we just discussed:

If the superiority is used on an adjective (which is the case most of the time) then you need to follow these steps: first extract the three consonant from the adjective, (beautiful = jameel è jml, then spread the consonant respectively to this model given here è a??a? by replacing each question mark with a consonant, you would have then : a superiority adjective è ajmal). You can do that with most adjectives.

Near = qareeb è qrb è Nearer = aqrab

Big = kabeer è kbr è Bigger = akbar

Beautiful = jameel è jml è more beautiful = ajmal

But note that like in English some superlative change totally from the original adjective

Good = jayyed è better = ahsan è the best = al ahsan (you will learn about superlative next!)

nferiority in Arabic:

To express inferiority you just need to follow the rules of how to form superiority, but instead of the “akthar …~an men” form, use “aqal…~an men”

Easy! Literarily meaning: … less … than , instead of …more than …

The stars are less shiny than the moon = annojoum aqal diaya’an men al qamar = النجوم أقل ضياءا من القمر

Superlative in Arabic:

To form Arabic superlative, once more you just need to make some modifications to the superiority form you learned before. Add “al” and omit “men” to the superiority form, because “men” is used to compare two things, which is not the case in superlative.

Fatima is younger than Sofia è Fatima asghar men Sofia صوفيا من أصغرفاطمة ,Fatima is the youngest = Fatima hia al asghar لصغرالفاطمة هي

His house is the most beautiful è baituhu howa al akthar jamaalan.

Note that since the superiority adjective starts always with an “a”, placing “al” before it to form Asian Academy of Business and Computers Arabic instructional Manual

دليل التعلم بالعربيه2007 all rights reserved

Page 63: AABC Arabic Manual Vol 1

ASIAN ACADEMY OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS ARABIC MANUAL

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيsuperlative will give you most of the time the form “al a” for the superlative before the adjective used. Examples: the youngest: al asghar, the biggest: al akbar, the tallest: al atwal, the best: al ahsan, the dummest: al aghbaa.

MODULE 12. ARABIC PREPOSITIONS

Prepositions in Arabic are used just like in English; they come before the noun,

Around the house = hawla al bait (around = hawla). In front of the house = amama al bait (amama= in front of).

Some prepositions that are one word in English may contain two words in Arabic, for example (among = men bayn) which means literally “from between”. And vice versa, some Arabic one word may be the equivalent of a compound English preposition, like: in front of = fawka.

Arabic Demonstrative Prepositions

This = used for masculine: hatha (th as in them = )هذا

This = used for feminine : hatheh (th as in them = ) هذه

That = used for masculine: thalek (th as in them = )ذلك

That = used for feminine: tilka = تلك

These = ha’ola = ’هؤلء

Those = ola’ek = أولئك

MODULE 13 The Arabic question and Negation

Arabic Interrogative:

To form the interrogative in Arabic you just need to place the word “hal ” هل in the beginning of the sentence, easy !

Hal means do or does.

Does he have a house? = hal ladaihi bait ?لديه بيت؟ هل

Do you smoke = hal tudakhen ?تدخن؟ هل

There are other ways to make questions in Arabic using interrogative pronouns, just add them to your sentence and unlike English, in Arabic you don’t need to change the order of the sentence:

What = matha (th pronounced as in that) è What do you want? Matha tureed ?تريد؟ ماذا

Who = man من è who are you? Man ant ?أنت؟ من

How = kaifa كيف è How are you? Kaifa haaluk? حالك؟ كيف

At what time = mataa متى è at what time are you coming? Mataa sata’tee ?ستأتي؟ متى

Where = aina أين è Where are you going? Aina anta daaheb ?أنت ذاهب؟ أين

From where = men aina من أينè From where did you come? Men aina atait ?أتيت؟ من أين

Which = ayya أي è Which city? Ayya madina? مدينة؟ أي

When = mataa متى è When are you going to go to be? Mataa satanaam? ستنام؟ متى

How much/ many = kam كم è How much is this book? Kam howa hatha el kitaab ?هو هذا الكتاب؟ كم

Negation in Arabic:

Very simple and easy to form a negation in Arabic, just place “laa ل “before the verb: for example :I don’t like it = laa ohibbuha أحبها ل

Learn Arabic اللغة العربيLiterally it means (No I like it).

I don’t want it = laa oreeduha أريدها ل ,coffee is a drink I don’t like = al qahwah mashroobun laa ohibuh احبه لالقهوة مشروب

To say “I’m not, he is not, she is not, we’re not….” In Arabic we use “laisa ليس“ ,which is a verb that you need to conjugate:

Negation in Arabic

Singular Dual Plural

I’m not أنا لست Ana lastu

You’re not (singular masc) أنت لست Anta lasta

You’re not (singular fem) Yلست Yأنت Anti lasti

he is not هو ليس Howa laisa

she is notهي ليست Hiya laisat

You’re not (dual male or female)

Antuma أنتuما لستما lastuma

They’re not (dual male or female)

Humaa laisaa هuما ليسا

We’re not نحن لسنا Nahnu lasna

You’re not (plural masculine) Antum lastum أنتuم لستم

You’re not (plural feminine )لستن Antun lastunأنتuن

They’re not (plural masculine) Hum laisuu هuم ليسوا

They’re not (plural feminine) Hunna lasna هuن لسن

I’m not alone = lastu wahdi لست وحدي (note that you don’t need to add the subject pronoun like (ana I), (anta you), (howa He)… it can be understood by the conjugation of the verb laisa, and remember that this is the case with most of verbs.

MODULE 14. ARABIC READING

I always encourage learners to learn how to read Arabic in its original script, because the transliteration doesn’t provide accurate phonetics. The text below is divided into three parts, the Arabic script, transliteration, and English translation. If you’re familiar with the Arabic letters then try to first read the first part and see how well you will do, if not then help yourself with the transliteration, and finally if you didn’t know the meaning of some parts, then check out the translation. Enjoyable reading!

Also I visited Jordan, a wonderful country indeed!

I’m excited about that trip.

Many people wonder if there is a way or method that could help them learn Arabic, without a good learning strategy a person could be lost. So I will try to point out to some important ways to start learning Arabic, however a person should rely on ones creativity based on each person’s needs because not everyone is interested in the same thing, some want to focus on writing or reading Arabic, some would like to focus on speaking and pronunciation. I will start with methods taking into consideration

the general needs of most people based on learning Arabic as a whole (reading, writing, speaking.(…

An obvious good start is to learn the Arabic Alphabet this page will help you not only to learn how to pronounce the letters but also how to write them. Also check the Arabic Vowels since it’s related to the alphabet too. Once you’re familiar with the Arabic letters you can check out the Phrases in Arabic, that will give you an idea about some expressions that are used daily, try to use some of those expressions and also memorize them, like “thank you – shokran”, “my name is … esmee …”. Memorizing words can be very useful, because that’s basically the raw material of the language, without them you can’t even start, so it would be a good idea to make a list of your favorite words that you want to memorize for example 200 words, you can go and choose them from the following pages: Food and House (like apple, bread …), Animals (cat, dog …), Adjectives (white, green …), Body Parts (face, cheek …), Occupations & School (engineer, book…), Places & Sports (Morocco, beach …), Time & Weather (Sunny, everyday …), Verbs in their infinitive form. You will certainly be able to make a list of 200 favorite words from these pages.

Once you memorize them you will be able to use them when necessary, however you may also need to know the Arabic grammar, because that will make it easier for you to use the words in the correct form and in the correct place, to be able to do that you need to check out the Articles, also the Arabic Numbers, how to use Adjectives, list of Prepositions, and Pronouns list, how to conjugate Verbs, how to use the Feminine and Plural … You can also check how names are translated into Arabic. Grammar is what gives life to vocabulary; it helps you play with the words you already memorized so please don’t over look it.

You will find other resources not mentioned here in the main page that will also help you with your learning, please not that I don’t have audio files on the website yet, since the bandwidth is limited and having audio files could make the website exceed its bandwidth limit and shut down. I will try to work out a way to add audio files in the future. Good luck!

This is an Arabic keyboad that you can use to type in Arabic if you don't have it installed on your computer, or if you don't have the Arabic letters (stickers) on your keyboard. You can type any character. Also you will be able to edit what you write by placing the mouse pointer inside the text area and using it as you normally do to type and edit texts. It might be useful for writing names or small words for Arabic beginner students, especially if you know how it's written already .

Note that there are shortcuts that save you time, for example "Greeting" or "Goodbye" expressions... etc. For those who don't speak or understand Arabic, below each shortcut button in Arabic there is a translation in English you can click on them anytime to see what the full translation is, Once you finish typing the text in Arabic just click on Select All, and then Copy and Paste it where you want, such as

where you compose your e-mails, or on your messenger when chatting... Good luck !

For those who are not familiar with the Arabic Alphabet: please not that when you type a letter, for example "T", it's not necessary that it will give you the equivalent of "T" in Arabic, in this case if you type "T" it will give you an equivalent to "F", not because there is a problem with the keyboard but because that's how the Arabic system is set up, so you will need some knowledge of the Arabic alphabet, to help you out.

This is a list of words that you need to memorize to improve your Arabic learning; below you will find a table of vocabulary from (A to B) this page contains 400 words. Try to memorize as many as you can, because they can improve your Arabic, I only included the most used words. I didn’t write the transliteration because this page is for those who are intermediate in Arabic or those who are only interested in writing the word and not saying it. If you have a question let us know. You can also check the next page which is: (C to D), and which contains 400 words as well. This is just like a little English-Arabic dictionary; the difference is that this one contains only the commonly used words. Good luck!
