place language allows you to visit or00:01:14

life and those are just some of the reasons00:02:08
you should learn another language the00:02:10
list just goes on and on00:02:12
now you know the benefits of studying00:02:14
another language but why should you00:02:16
learn arabic in particular00:02:21
the arab world is well known as a00:02:23
ceaseless supply of oil it's rich in00:02:26
resources with enormous oil and natural00:02:28
gas reserves in fact seven of the top 2000:02:32
countries that produce the most oil come00:02:35
from arab nations00:02:37
not to mention that arabic is spoken in00:02:39
more than 20 countries with roughly 30000:02:41
million native speakers worldwide this00:02:43
makes arabic one of the most widely00:02:45
spoken languages in the world knowing00:02:47
arabic opens up many business and career00:02:49
opportunities00:02:50
the region's instability has not00:02:52
affected its tourism industry which is00:02:55
considered the fastest growing sector in00:02:58
the region with egypt uae lebanon saudi00:03:02
arabia and jordan leading the way00:03:05
surely you have heard of the ancient00:03:07
pyramids of giza or the burj khalifa00:03:11
well these are both famous attraction in00:03:13
the arab world where arabic is the00:03:16
official language the majority of the00:03:18
arabian population can't speak english00:03:20
so if you're planning on making a few00:03:22
friends in any arab country being able00:03:24
to speak arabic is an absolute must00:03:26
another sector that is growing steadily00:03:29
in the arab world is telecommunications00:03:32
within less than a decade many local00:03:34
companies have managed to successfully00:03:37
compete internationally as global00:03:40
players islam is the most widespread00:03:42
religion in the arab world and it serves00:03:44
as a framework through which many arabs00:03:46
see the world00:03:47
through your study of arabic you will00:03:48
pick up knowledge of islamic traditions00:03:50
and beliefs that will introduce you to a00:03:52
new religion or to gain insight into the00:03:54
second largest religion in the world00:03:56
so clearly there are many many reasons00:03:59
why you should learn arabic okay then00:04:02
we've talked about the reasons you00:04:03
should learn arabic but how should they00:04:04
get started jaffa00:04:09
well it's as simple as learning your00:04:11
first word in arabic and building up00:04:13
from there the fact that will surprise00:04:15
you is that you already know some arabic00:04:18
alcohol00:04:22
many english words have been acquired00:04:24
directly from arabic or else indirectly00:04:27
by passing from arabic into other00:04:28
languages and then into english so you00:04:31
must have said some arabic words before00:04:33
let's teach you something that is very00:04:35
useful00:04:36
all arabic vocabulary is made up of root00:04:39
consonants that you can easily memorize00:04:42
can you explain this further jaffa00:04:44
alicia for example there are loads of00:04:47
words derived from the three letters00:04:53
which are equivalent to the english00:04:55
letters00:04:56
k t and b00:04:58
and there are all connected in some way00:05:00
to writing the verb ketebe which means00:05:04
he wrote ketibun which means writer00:05:07
kitabun which means book and so on to00:05:11
better understand this point we'll00:05:12
compare it to english in english we have00:05:15
many words derived from the same three00:05:16
letters for example run runner and00:05:20
running are all derived from the three00:05:22
letters r u n and the three words are00:05:24
related to each other it's the same00:05:26
thing in arabic you see the similarity00:05:29
in all of those words don't you00:05:31
all of those words come from the same00:05:32
three letters so even if you only00:05:34
memorize the three letters k t and b you00:05:38
could in many cases take a really good00:05:40
guess at the meaning of a word since you00:05:42
know it has something to do with books00:05:43
and writing exactly that makes things00:05:46
much easier to learn00:05:48
well you'll learn more about arabic00:05:50
writing in episode 4 so stay tuned now00:05:53
try saying your first word in arabic00:05:55
listen and repeat after yaffa00:05:59
now your turn00:06:02
try it again00:06:05
well done you just learned how to say00:06:08
thank you in arabic00:06:09
we've covered a lot of things already so00:06:11
why don't we wrap up the first lesson00:06:13
and recap on what we've learned00:06:15
in this lesson you learned the benefits00:06:16
of studying arabic the arab world has a00:06:19
colorful history with many things for00:06:21
you to see and learn and to say thank00:06:23
you in arabic it's00:06:26
in this lesson you'll learn the basics00:06:28
of arabic pronunciation pronunciation00:06:30
refers to the manner in which a word is00:06:32
spoken so don't focus on reading what's00:06:34
on screen instead focus on listening and00:06:37
repeating00:06:41
arabic is what is called stress time00:06:44
with language00:06:45
this simply means that stressed00:06:47
syllables are valued more than00:06:48
unstressed syllables00:06:50
stressed syllables will be pronounced00:06:52
louder and longer than unstressed00:06:53
syllables which are shortened to00:06:55
accommodate the rhythm of stressed00:06:56
syllables00:07:01
notice that the second syllable is00:07:03
stressed it's pronounced longer and00:07:05
louder while the first and final00:07:06
syllables are shortened00:07:10
if you think about it this is identical00:07:12
to english00:07:13
opportunity00:07:15
the stressed syllable 2 in opportunity00:07:18
is deemed more important so it's00:07:20
pronounced longer than all other00:07:21
syllables listen to it again00:07:24
opportunity00:07:26
compare this once again with arabic00:07:30
opportunity00:07:33
opportunity00:07:36
as you can see the timing and rhythm of00:07:38
arabic isn't much different than that of00:07:40
english00:07:44
despite what you may think arabic00:07:45
pronunciation is actually quite similar00:07:47
to english there are more familiar00:07:49
sounds between english and arabic than00:07:51
unfamiliar sounds in fact 75 of all00:07:55
sounds in arabic exist in english too00:07:57
this means that if you were to simply00:08:00
imitate an arabic speaker your00:08:02
pronunciation will be correct roughly 7500:08:05
percent of the time00:08:07
repeat after me00:08:13
chances are your pronunciation was00:08:15
pretty spot on the a l00:08:18
m u00:08:19
d00:08:20
i and r sounds are practically identical00:08:23
to english try again00:08:28
nearly all sounds in arabic are00:08:30
identical to english similar to the00:08:32
consonant sounds in this example since00:08:34
you already know how to pronounce most00:08:35
of these sounds we only need to pay00:08:37
attention to the handful of sounds that00:08:39
are unique to arabic they're the ones we00:08:41
need to look out for00:08:46
of all the sounds that exist in arabic00:08:48
there are roughly nine new consonant00:08:50
sounds that you need to practice00:09:04
these five sounds are known as emphatic00:09:06
consonants they're categorized as such00:09:08
because they're pronounced deep within00:09:10
the throat00:09:17
they sound like the d h s t and q sounds00:09:21
respectively except much more tense00:09:23
because the throat is constricted listen00:09:26
again00:09:32
let's take a look at another sound00:09:35
that's quite distinctively arabic00:09:37
consider the phrase for good morning in00:09:40
arabic00:09:46
the letter00:09:48
is a sound that's often used in arabic00:09:51
between ek and nh sound00:09:56
it sounds as though you're clearing your00:09:57
throat00:10:00
we'll cover this sound and all other00:10:02
sounds in arabic in much more detail in00:10:04
future lessons for now let's close this00:10:07
lesson by recapping what we've learned00:10:09
in this lesson you learn that arabic is00:10:11
a stress-timed language where the rhythm00:10:13
is akin to english collectively nearly00:10:16
all sounds in arabic are identical to00:10:18
the sounds of english and there are only00:10:20
a handful of new sounds that you need to00:10:22
learn in this lesson you'll learn the00:10:24
basics of arabic grammar00:10:29
word order refers to the order in which00:10:31
words are structured to form a sentence00:10:33
in a given language consider the english00:10:35
sentence i8 and apple00:10:37
but first let's remove the article and00:10:40
here for simplicity so we're just left00:10:42
with i ate apple the basic word order00:10:45
for english is subject verb object or00:10:48
svo for short if we break down the00:10:51
english sentence i ate apple we can see00:10:54
that the subject i is presented first00:10:57
followed by the verb eight and then00:10:59
finally the object apple is positioned00:11:01
last00:11:02
this is the basic word order for00:11:04
sentences in english00:11:05
now let's compare that same sentence i00:11:09
etanapol in arabic00:11:14
if we break down the arabic sentence we00:11:17
get the verb ekaltu which means ate00:11:20
followed by the subject ana meaning i00:11:24
and finally we have the object of00:11:28
meaning apol00:11:29
arabic is actually written in red from00:11:32
right to left00:11:34
we will cover this aspect more in the00:11:36
next episode on writing00:11:38
the word order for arabic then is verb00:11:41
subject object or vso for short00:11:45
the same sentence in arabic then is00:11:47
essentially ate i apple verb first then00:11:51
subject and object last00:11:54
okay let's move on to the next section00:12:00
english is what is called a subject00:12:02
prominent language this simply means00:12:04
that the subject is slightly more00:12:05
important than other components in the00:12:07
sentence00:12:08
it's the key piece of information other00:12:10
components in the sentence relate to00:12:12
who is doing the action is slightly more00:12:15
important than what is being done or00:12:17
which object it's been done to in00:12:18
english00:12:20
arabic on the other hand is defined as a00:12:22
null subject language that essentially00:12:25
means that the subject isn't valued as00:12:28
much in arabic as it is in english in00:12:31
fact arabic speakers would likely omit00:12:33
the subject from a sentence altogether00:12:36
wherever they can00:12:38
such as when the subject was about you00:12:40
the speaker or if the subject has00:12:42
already been established and you're just00:12:44
continuing the conversation00:12:46
let's take a look at this phenomenon on00:12:48
null subject in a bit more detail00:12:54
more often than not if you wanted to say00:12:56
i ate an apple in arabic you would not00:12:59
say00:13:04
instead you would more likely say ate00:13:07
apple in arabic00:13:10
where you omit the subject i00:13:13
most arabic sentences are constructed00:13:14
and spoken like this in real life00:13:19
in most situations such as a one-on-one00:13:21
conversation it's clear that the person00:13:23
who's speaking is the subject in cases00:13:26
where it's obvious who or what the00:13:27
subject is it's almost guaranteed that00:13:30
the subject will be omitted and so00:13:32
you're left with00:13:35
on the other hand when it's unclear who00:13:38
or what the subject is or if you wanted00:13:41
to place emphasis on the subject like if00:13:43
you wanted to declare from a group of00:13:45
people that it was you who ate the apple00:13:48
then you would include the subject00:13:54
but more often than not most sentences00:13:56
spoken in daily arabic conversation can00:13:58
be spoken without including the subject00:14:00
at all particularly if that subject is00:14:03
you00:14:04
fatah00:14:09
knowing this we can easily express any00:14:11
simple action in arabic using just the00:14:13
object and the verb try to create the00:14:15
sentence i ate a hot dog from this set00:14:18
of words00:14:25
okay got it00:14:27
so we know the verb order of arabic is00:14:29
vso00:14:30
the verb goes first so let's put 8 here00:14:34
next would come the subject but as we00:14:36
learned earlier we can afford to ignore00:14:38
the subject since the speaker is the00:14:40
same person taking action00:14:42
finally we can add the object hot dog at00:14:45
the end there and that's it00:14:50
you just learned how to say i ate a hot00:14:52
dog in arabic well done00:14:57
you can create any basic sentence like00:14:59
this in arabic if you simply know the00:15:00
word for the verb and the object in00:15:02
arabic let's wrap up this lesson by00:15:04
recapping what you've learned in this00:15:07
lesson you learned that arabic sentences00:15:08
are formed using a verb subject object00:15:11
or vso word order most sentences spoken00:15:14
in arabic will not actually contain a00:15:16
subject especially if that subject is00:15:18
obvious like when it's you yourself the00:15:20
speaker and lastly you can create basic00:15:23
sentences in arabic by putting the verb00:15:25
first and the object last in this lesson00:15:27
you'll learn the basics of arabic00:15:28
writing00:15:32
first let's introduce you to the arabic00:15:34
alphabet the arabic alphabet consists of00:15:38
28 letters there are three vowels00:15:46
the rest are consonants00:15:52
jim00:15:58
and so on00:16:00
five consonant letters are emphatic or00:16:02
hard versions of other letters they're00:16:04
pronounced deeper in the throat00:16:06
vlad00:16:13
let's talk a little bit about the00:16:15
sequence that they are written in00:16:17
just like how english orders its00:16:19
alphabet in abc and so forth there is a00:16:22
proper order in which arabic letters are00:16:24
sequenced too00:16:25
there are actually two ways the arabic00:16:28
alphabet is ordered00:16:30
one is called abjet in the other hijab00:16:33
for this introductory lesson just00:16:36
understand that object is the older00:16:38
version while the hija is the newer00:16:41
version that's commonly used in modern00:16:43
day dictionaries00:16:45
so if you had to choose try to learn the00:16:47
newer version00:16:49
hija00:16:53
just like how there are abjad and hija00:16:55
orders of the arabic alphabet there are00:16:58
also two different styles of writing in00:17:01
arabic the first is classical arabic the00:17:04
language of the quran in the classical00:17:07
literature it differs from the other00:17:10
type of written arabic in style in00:17:12
vocabulary some of which is abandoned00:17:15
now00:17:16
the second is modern standard arabic the00:17:19
universal language of the arabic00:17:20
speaking world which is understood by00:17:22
all arabic speakers it's the language of00:17:24
the vast majority of written material00:17:26
and of formal tv shows lectures and so00:17:29
on once again you can think of them as00:17:32
the old in the newer style the biggest00:17:35
difference between these two writing00:17:36
styles is that classical arabic00:17:38
represents vowels while modern standard00:17:41
arabic mostly does not let's try to draw00:17:43
a comparison to english to better00:17:45
demonstrate this point take for example00:17:47
a word like cover in english it's00:17:49
written c-o-v-e-r00:17:52
this is how you would write it in00:17:54
classical arabic00:17:55
in modern study arabic however is00:17:58
customary to omit the vowels so it will00:18:01
be written cvr in modern standard arabic00:18:05
in this case the vowels are merely00:18:07
implied it relies on you to fill in the00:18:09
gaps on your own to come up with the00:18:11
correct word based on context this makes00:18:14
learning arabic more difficult in the00:18:16
beginning but once you become proficient00:18:19
it will be like reading in shorthand00:18:22
let's see what it would look like in00:18:24
arabic00:18:25
take the verb for go in arabic classical00:18:28
arabic will be written like this00:18:31
in pranaz00:18:34
modern standard arabic however would00:18:36
remove the vowels so it would appear00:18:38
like this00:18:40
and be pronounced00:18:47
vowed text appear in the quran they are00:18:50
also used though with less consistency00:18:53
in other religious texts in classical00:18:56
poetry in books for children in foreign00:18:59
learners and occasionally in complex00:19:02
texts to avoid ambiguity modern standard00:19:06
arabic is used everywhere else meaning00:19:08
it's much more common so most of the00:19:10
time the vowels would not be written at00:19:12
all00:19:16
the writing style of arabic may require00:19:19
some getting used to because unlike00:19:22
english and other western languages00:19:24
arabic is written in the opposite00:19:26
direction from right to left so using00:19:30
the previous example00:19:32
verb00:19:33
the goes first followed by00:19:38
while words are written from right to00:19:41
left numerals are written from left to00:19:43
right instead so please keep that in00:19:46
mind00:19:47
okay00:19:48
now that you know that arabic is written00:19:50
from right to left let's talk a bit00:19:52
about the different forms of a letter00:19:54
as you can see arabic is written in00:19:57
cursive00:19:58
unlike english writing cursive in arabic00:20:02
is not optional00:20:04
it is always written this way where00:20:07
letters within a word connect from one00:20:10
to the next each letter is written00:20:12
differently depending on their position00:20:14
within a word a letter can exhibit up to00:20:17
four distinct forms initial medial final00:20:20
or isolated00:20:22
take the letter for example00:20:24
this letter is written in the initial00:20:26
form when it's the first letter in a00:20:28
word it'll be written like00:20:32
this it'll be written in the medial form00:20:35
when it's wedged between two other00:20:37
letters00:20:42
it'll be written in the final form when00:20:43
it's the last letter in a word00:20:49
and when the letter stands alone it'll00:20:51
be written using the isolated form00:20:55
well done00:20:56
now let's end this lesson by recapping00:20:58
what we've learned00:21:00
in this lesson you learned that there00:21:01
are 28 letters in the arabic alphabet00:21:04
three of them are vowels and the rest00:21:05
are consonants texts using classical00:21:08
arabic are voweled but more commonly00:21:10
everyday arabic is written using modern00:21:12
standard arabic which nearly always has00:21:15
them omitted you also learn that arabic00:21:17
is written from right to left and that00:21:19
there are four forms of a letter the00:21:21
initial medial final and isolated in00:21:24
this lesson we'll focus on teaching you00:21:25

the best phrase to learn when studying a00:21:41
new language is one that expresses00:21:43
gratitude and appreciation if you had to00:21:45
learn only a single phrase this would be00:21:47
it we taught you this phrase in the00:21:50
first lesson of the series do you00:21:52
remember what it was00:21:55
it means thank you00:22:00
keep repeating after yafa until you get00:22:02
it00:22:04
your turn00:22:10
shakaran00:22:12
okay one last time00:22:17
the next phrase we'll teach you is00:22:18
perhaps the second most useful phrase of00:22:20
all it's to apologize or to excuse00:22:22
yourself00:22:30
use this phrase when you want to grab a00:22:32
waiter's attention or when you're00:22:34
hustling through the busy streets of00:22:35

now you can say thank you excuse me and00:23:06
sorry in arabic let's move on00:23:12
asking where something is is an00:23:14
incredibly important and useful phrase00:23:16
to learn you're going to need this when00:23:18
asking where the bathroom the train00:23:20
station or where the hotel is to ask00:23:22
where something is put where first00:23:26
aina00:23:27
and then add the name of the place or00:23:29
location00:23:30
for example if you want to ask where is00:23:33
the bathroom00:23:36
do you remember emphatic consonants in00:23:38
arabic we talked about it briefly in00:23:40
lesson 2 on pronunciation00:23:44
is pronounced deep in the throat00:23:48
this sound is pronounced very deep in00:23:50
the throat you want to make an h sound00:23:53
but with a throat constricted a little00:23:57
one trick to produce this sound is to00:23:59
push your tongue as far back in your00:24:00
mouth as you can and then say the word00:24:03
hot it should help you to pronounce this00:24:05
sound00:24:08
one last time00:24:15
try saying the complete sentence00:24:22
once more00:24:28
well done00:24:29
now if you wanted to ask where the train00:24:31
station is in arabic it'll be00:24:34
ena00:24:40
repeat it again00:24:46
so you can ask where something is simply00:24:48
by saying00:24:51
and then adding the name of the place or00:24:53
location00:24:54
so if the word for hotel is00:24:59
how would you ask where is the hotel in00:25:01
arabic00:25:02
first you would say00:25:04
aina00:25:06
then add hotel00:25:10
fondue00:25:19
convenience store in arabic is00:25:22
bakkalatun00:25:24

repeat it one last time00:25:36
you can ask where anything is in arabic00:25:38
by saying00:25:39
ena00:25:41

where something is in arabic and in this00:25:50
series we introduced you to the basics00:25:52
of arabic pronunciation grammar writing00:25:54
and more let's conclude with some00:25:56
parting advice from yafa and listen to00:25:58
some of her tips on how to learn arabic00:25:59
from a native arabic perspective00:26:05
the best way to learn arabic00:26:07
particularly if you want to improve your00:26:09
communication skills is to watch and00:26:12
study contemporary arabic videos that's00:26:15
because we often use expressions that00:26:18
aren't necessarily introduced in grammar00:26:21
textbooks00:26:22
i believe that listening to arabic music00:26:25
is one of the easiest ways to immerse00:26:28
yourself and to learn arabic00:26:30
additionally music teaches you all sort00:26:32
of things including cultural expressions00:26:36
in the values of a community you get to00:26:38
learn much more than just the language00:26:41
finally watching contemporary videos00:26:44
such as our video here at arabic00:26:47

hi i'm carol nice to meet you in this00:27:11
series al arabiya fisalafi.com we're00:27:14
going to learn basic arabic expressions00:27:16
it's super easy and it takes only 300:27:18
minutes00:27:19
in this lesson you're going to learn how00:27:21
to introduce yourself in arabic there00:27:23
are a few other ways to say it depending00:27:25
on how formal you want to be00:27:28
let's first look at an informal way to00:27:30
introduce yourself in arabic marhaban00:27:32
anakarol00:27:34
hi i'm carol it's a pleasure to meet you00:27:37
marhaban anna karol suretu bilika00:27:42
now you try it start by saying marhaban00:27:45
which is the equivalent of hai00:27:47
then00:27:48
say anna literally i am followed by your00:27:51
name anna karol is i am carol finally00:27:55
say nice to meet you if you're talking00:27:57
to a man you say sure00:28:01
if you are talking to a woman say sure00:28:03
to bilika00:28:05
this phrase means pleasure to meet you00:28:08
in the english phrase pleasure to meet00:28:09
you you is a neutral word you can use it00:28:12
for both men and women00:28:14
but in arabic the word you needs a00:28:17
gender00:28:18
when you change the last letter in00:28:20
likaika a to an e sound00:28:23
you are actually changing the word you00:28:25
from the male to the female version00:28:27
please be careful to use the correct00:28:29
version00:28:30
now let's see another way of introducing00:28:32
yourself in this version you will say hi00:28:35
my name is carol instead of hi i am00:28:38
carol and we will learn another way of00:28:40
saying nice to meet you00:28:42
marhaban00:28:47
hi my name is carol i am honored to meet00:28:49
you00:28:50
marhaban is me carol00:28:56
what has changed from the previous00:28:57
introduction let's take a close look at00:29:00
this together00:29:01
first marhaban anna karol has changed to00:29:05
marhaban is mikarol00:29:07
so instead of saying hi i am carol we00:29:10
are speaking in a more formal way by00:29:12
saying hi my name is carol00:29:15
next after giving your name instead of00:29:17
saying suretu bilika00:29:20
you say tasharaf to be married00:29:23
or i am honored to meet you which is a00:29:25
bit more formal00:29:26
again we should not forget to change the00:29:29
ending of the word depending on the00:29:31
gender of the person you're speaking to00:29:33
it would be tasarev to be mary fatica00:29:36
for a man and tasharaf to be00:29:39
in case of a woman00:29:41
one more time here are the four ways you00:29:44
learn to introduce yourself in arabic00:29:46
informally marhaban anna karol sure to00:29:49
bilika00:29:50
if you are speaking to a man00:29:52
and marhaban and akaral sure to bilika00:29:56
if you are speaking to a woman00:29:58
the formal way to introduce yourself is00:30:01
marhaban ismi karol tasharaftu bimari00:30:04
fatika if the person you're talking to00:30:07
is a man at marhaban is me karol00:30:10
tasharaf to be married00:30:12
if that person is a woman00:30:14
now it's time for carol's tips when you00:30:17
introduce yourself in the middle east or00:30:19
northern african countries it's polite00:30:21
to offer your right hand for a handshake00:30:23
or give three kisses on the cheeks00:30:25
although the rules vary depending on00:30:27
where you are00:30:29
arab people place great value on00:30:30
politeness so for example it is00:30:33
considered rude to enter a room or a00:30:35
place without greeting everyone00:30:38
if you use the right sentence to00:30:39
introduce yourself they'll definitely be00:30:42
impressed00:30:43
in the last lesson we learned how to00:30:44
introduce ourselves in arabic today00:30:47
we're going to learn how to use good00:30:49
manners as we thank people00:30:52
are you ready00:30:54
then let's start00:30:55
there are several ways to thank someone00:30:58
let's start with the most common phrase00:31:00
sukran00:31:01
shukran00:31:03
shukran means thank you to say thank you00:31:06
very much you just need to add jazeelan00:31:09
sukran jazeelan shukran00:31:12
jazeelan00:31:13
shukran is a formal way of saying thank00:31:15
you if you want to thank someone more00:31:17
casually say mutasakir if you're a man00:31:20
and mutasakira if you're a woman00:31:27
this phrase means i am grateful or i am00:31:30
thankful00:31:31
when someone thanks you how should you00:31:33
answer00:31:34
there's no set response like you're00:31:36
welcome in english but there are a few00:31:38
things you can say00:31:40
the first is00:31:42
this means with pleasure00:31:44
be00:31:46
another phrase you can say is tata00:31:49
amrika which literally means at your00:31:51
service or at your disposal00:31:54
if you're talking to a woman you should00:31:56
say tata amriki00:31:58
tatta00:32:02
it is often used as a funny way of00:32:04
responding to someone thanking you00:32:07
there are so many ways of saying you're00:32:09
welcome in arabic00:32:10
another one is00:32:14
which means don't thank me it's my duty00:32:18
allah00:32:20
now it's time for carol's tips00:32:22
sukran can mean thank you or thanks00:32:26
arabic language is very emotional00:32:28
and relations between arab people are00:32:30
very personal so what if you want to use00:32:33
an expression that sounds more friendly00:32:35
in that case you can use al-khaliq00:32:38
this is a nice way to thank someone that00:32:41
means may god protect you00:32:43
in the last lesson we learned how to00:32:45
thank people by saying shukran and00:32:47
sukhran jazeelan in this lesson we'll00:32:50
learn some of the most common greetings00:32:52
used in arabic speaking countries00:32:54
helentum jahizun are you ready00:32:57
then let's start00:32:59
the most common greeting is marhaban00:33:02
or hai00:33:03
mar haban00:33:05
this is a general way to greet people00:33:07
when you see them a more cultural00:33:09
greeting is00:33:11
as-salaamu alaikum00:33:13
this means peace be with you and is00:33:16
generally used only by muslims00:33:18
we say it when we meet someone and also00:33:20
when we leave00:33:25
someone could respond to assalamu00:33:27
alaikum with marhaban or hai but it is00:33:31
more polite to respond to such greetings00:33:33
in the corresponding way00:33:35
since assalamu alaikum means peace be00:33:38
with you when greeted in that way we00:33:41
should answer back with wa alaikum00:33:43
assalam which literally means peace be00:33:46
with you too00:33:51
whether you use marhaban hai00:33:54
or assalamu alaikum it is also polite to00:33:57
ask the person how they are00:34:00
kaifa luka00:34:02
how are you00:34:03
kaifa ha00:34:06
don't forget that in arabic the word you00:34:09
needs to have a gender00:34:11
so kaifa haaluka is good if you are00:34:14
talking to a man but if you are talking00:34:16
to a woman you should ask kaifa00:34:24
when it's time to leave you can say00:34:27
or goodbye00:34:30
the other person can reply00:34:32
ma salama which means be safe00:34:38
let's review the phrases you've learned00:34:40
in this lesson00:34:41
marhaban is high00:34:44
as00:34:46
peace be with you00:34:48
the response is00:34:58
how are you00:35:00
is goodbye and00:35:03
ma salama is be safe00:35:07
now it's time for carol's tips00:35:09
if you're leaving and you want to show00:35:11
the person that you would like to see00:35:12
them again you can use ilalika00:35:27
now you know lots of ways to greet00:35:28
people in arabic00:35:31
in the last lesson we learned the most00:35:32
common forms of greetings in arabic do00:35:35
you remember them00:35:36
we introduced marhaban and assalamu00:35:40
alaikum as well as sukran00:35:44
in this lesson we're going to learn a00:35:46
very useful phrase00:35:48
do you speak english00:35:50
if you find yourself in a situation00:35:52
where you need assistance in english00:35:54
this phrase can be a lifesaver00:35:56
and because you're asking it in arabic00:35:58
you can be sure that everyone will00:36:00
understand what you're saying even if00:36:02
their answer is no00:36:04
are you ready then let's start00:36:06
here's the basic way to ask if someone00:36:08
speaks english00:36:10
helta takalamul00:36:12
if you are talking to a male00:36:14
and helta calamina el inglesia if you00:36:18
are talking to a female00:36:20
helta00:36:22
el inglesia00:36:24
helta takalamina00:36:28
means do00:36:29
you and speak are merged in the same00:36:31
word tatakal lamu for males and tataka00:36:35
lamina for females00:36:37
englishia means english this is an00:36:40
indirect way of asking someone to speak00:36:42
to you in english00:36:44
there are many ways of making it clear00:36:46
that you're asking the person to speak00:36:47
english to you for example hellben00:36:54
could you speak english00:36:57
hellbe00:36:58
means could you are you able to or is it00:37:02
possible to00:37:04
and is referring to the ability of the00:37:06
person to speak english00:37:08
again if you're talking to a female you00:37:10
should change the last accent of ka to00:37:13
ki00:37:14
so the question becomes00:37:20
means speaking and bilingualiza is in00:37:25
english00:37:26
to be more formal we could add the word00:37:28
please to the request to make it00:37:36
in this case the question cannot mean00:37:39
the person's ability to speak english00:37:41
anymore because you are obviously asking00:37:43
them to speak english to you since in00:37:46
arabic the word please literally means00:37:48
from your favor it should also be00:37:51
changed according to the person's gender00:37:54
so in case of a female we should also00:37:56
change the ca ending of please00:37:59
in men fodlika00:38:01
to00:38:02
men fodliki00:38:11
the responses you will receive could be00:38:13
one of these three00:38:15
nam yes00:38:23
there are a few ways of saying no in00:38:25
arabic00:38:29
no i don't speak english00:38:42
it is exactly the same structure as in00:38:44
english la is no00:38:47
anna is i00:38:49
la means don't00:38:51
attack mu is i speak and al englishia is00:38:56
english00:38:57
since this last one is a negative00:38:59
statement we need to say la before the00:39:01
verb00:39:03
or speak00:39:04
literally means no but when placed00:39:06
before a verb it negates this verb00:39:08
becoming don't or doesn't00:39:11
notice also that the verb attack00:39:14
is slightly different than the takalamu00:39:17
which we learned before00:39:19
remember the verb changes depending on00:39:21
the pronoun used we are not talking00:39:24
about ana arabic for i00:39:27
thus i do not speak is00:39:31
now it's time for carol's tips for those00:39:34
of you who are not native english00:39:35
speakers you can obviously use this00:39:38
question with any language you need00:39:40
arab people study other languages at00:39:42
school depending on the country they00:39:44
live in so maybe you'll get lucky00:39:47
just substitute el inglisia with el00:39:50
farancilla for french00:39:53
al italia for italian el espana for00:39:56
spanish or al almaniya for german00:40:01
in this lesson you learned how to ask if00:40:03
someone can speak english in the next00:40:06

we can also use it when asking a00:41:26
question00:41:30
or00:41:31
a fun00:41:32
mahatha excuse me where is the station00:41:36
sometimes we also hear people say men00:41:39
fadlika or00:41:40
please to draw somebody's attention00:41:43
men fadlika00:41:45
if the person is a woman we replace the00:41:47
ending with ki00:41:49
so it becomes menfadli ki00:41:52
in case you want to use excuse me to00:41:54
apologize instead of asking something00:41:57
you should say audran00:41:59
it can be used if you accidentally bump00:42:01
into someone on the street00:42:03
audran00:42:05
just like audran we can use anna astiv00:42:09
when apologizing it literally means i'm00:42:12
sorry or pardon me00:42:14
as we learned in the last lesson anna00:42:17
means i00:42:18
so the adjective that follows should be00:42:20
modified according to the gender00:42:23
so if you're a woman you should say ana00:42:26
asifa instead of ana asif all of these00:42:30
phrases can be used for either excuse me00:42:32
or i'm sorry but if you really want to00:42:35
apologize for something it might be00:42:37
better to use a different phrase00:42:39
that phrase is the verb00:42:42
sh it can be translated as forgive me in00:42:46
english it is a bit stronger but it can00:42:49
be used in both formal and informal00:42:51
situations00:42:52
again since00:42:54
means that you are asking for the other00:42:56
person's forgiveness it should be00:42:58
changed according to the gender00:43:01
so it becomes samyahini if the other00:43:04
person is a female00:43:06
sa mihini00:43:08
now it's time for carol's tips00:43:11
please remember that in most of the arab00:43:13
countries if you accidentally bump into00:43:15
someone you don't say forgive me00:43:18
which is for a more serious annoyance00:43:21
instead we say00:43:24
or anna's asif00:43:26
excuse me or i am sorry in the last00:43:29
lesson we learned some words used when00:43:31
apologizing in arabic including ausran00:43:34
and anna astif in this lesson we are00:43:37
going to learn digits in arabic00:43:39
yes digits al-arkam from one to nine and00:43:43
you are going to learn them in only00:43:45
three minutes talasi dakoik00:43:48
are you ready let's start00:43:51
wahed00:43:52
where00:44:23
okay now repeat after me00:44:26
i'll say the digits and give you time to00:44:28
repeat each one00:44:30
ahead00:44:32
it's00:44:54
great job what is before wahad do you00:44:57
know00:44:58
it's suffer00:45:00
sliffer00:45:01
you don't have any more excuses you can00:45:04
give your friends your cell phone number00:45:06
in arabic let's try together00:45:09
we use the phrase rakmihua which means00:45:12
my number is00:45:14
rock me hua00:45:16
rakmi hua00:45:27
can you read it by yourself00:45:44
perfect do you know the arabic word for00:45:47
10 in the next lesson we are going to00:45:50
learn the numbers from 10 to 100 in00:45:52
arabic your task now is to practice the00:45:55
numbers we studied in this lesson from00:45:57
sever to00:45:58
tessa in the last lesson we learned the00:46:01
digits al-arkam from one to nine have00:46:04
you forgotten here i'll tell you again00:46:12
hamsa00:46:20
in arabic after digit 9 the digits or00:46:23
al-arkam starting with number 10 become00:46:29
and now let's continue from 10.00:46:41
is00:47:20
[Music]00:47:27
and finally we have00:47:29
ashroon00:47:34
okay now repeat after me i'll say the00:47:37
numbers and give you time to repeat each00:47:39
one00:47:47
is00:48:04
a00:48:18
ashroon00:48:20
these numbers may seem harder to00:48:22
remember but you really just have to00:48:24
memorize00:48:29
as for the rest you just need to replace00:48:31
the h ending of the digits we learned00:48:33
before00:48:34
with da followed by the word ashar00:48:38
let's not stop at twenty counting to one00:48:40
hundred is super easy now i give you the00:48:43
tens00:48:45
soon00:49:14
a while you have to memorize a few of00:49:17
these numbers there are a couple of00:49:19
tricks that will make memorizing them00:49:21
incredibly easy00:49:23
notice that salathun is 30 and arab00:49:28
is 40. so forty or arban is simply arba00:49:33
with a different ending00:49:35
the final a00:49:36
is replaced with un00:49:41
for example 80 is fema noon00:49:45
the digit 8 which you learned in the00:49:47
last lesson is tammanya00:49:50
so in this case the ear was removed and00:49:53
replaced with oon00:49:55
the moon00:49:58
the last thing we learned in this lesson00:50:00
is how to form compound numbers above00:50:02
20. this is also super easy take the00:50:05
tens and simply add before them the00:50:07
digits you learned in the previous00:50:09
lesson with some slight changes00:50:11
just remember that above 20 wah or end00:50:15
comes between the two words let's try it00:50:17
out00:50:19
how would you say 56 in arabic let's00:50:22
take it step by step00:50:23
50 is hamsun and then add the change 600:50:27
and end00:50:29
or before 50. so in other words it is 600:50:33
and 50.00:50:34
6 which is sitta00:50:36
becomes sittatun when you replace the00:50:39
final h with toon00:50:42
sittatun00:50:43
soon00:50:44
it's done isn't that easy let's make00:50:47
another number for instance 9800:50:51
take 90 to00:50:53
and add before it the changed 8.00:51:01
after only two lessons you are now able00:51:03
to count to 100 in arabic in the next00:51:06
lesson we are going to put our number00:51:08
knowledge to use00:51:09
do you have all the skills you need to00:51:11
go shopping in arabic speaking countries00:51:13
if not i'll be waiting for you in our00:51:16
next al00:51:17
arabiafisalati.com lesson00:51:19
in the last lesson we learned how to00:51:21
count in arabic i hope you spent some00:51:23
time practicing the numbers because they00:51:25
will come in handy in this lesson00:51:27
we're going to learn how to go shopping00:51:29
in arabic speaking countries00:51:31
before we go you need to know how to say00:51:34
how much is this become heather00:51:37
become heather00:51:39
are you ready to go shopping let's go00:51:42
you see something you like and you want00:51:44
to ask the shopkeeper how much it costs00:51:46
the first thing to say is have00:51:49
do you remember what that means00:51:51
excuse me afwan become heather00:51:55
hafwan become herder00:51:58
another way of asking how much is this00:52:00
is to say what is the price of this or00:52:04
kam samanu hada00:52:06
next if we are specifying what the00:52:08
object is we need to know if the object00:52:10
is feminine or masculine00:52:12
if it is masculine keep hada when00:52:15
referring to it and if it is feminine00:52:17
use hadi00:52:19
then if you would like to specify the00:52:21
name of the object you first say00:52:24
l which is like the and then say the00:52:27
noun for example pen is masculine00:52:31
column affine kamzamanu had a column00:52:35
excuse me what is the price of this pen00:52:38
afwan kam samanu hadal column00:52:42
and me fada is a feminine noun that00:52:45
means wallet afwan00:52:50
excuse me how much is this wallet00:52:53
afwan kem thamanu hadhil meh fatha00:52:57
at this point the shopkeeper can answer00:52:59
by saying just the price or samanuhu00:53:03
plus the price for a masculine noun and00:53:07
plus the price for a feminine noun00:53:09
for example ashrunalira 20 liras00:53:13
or samanuhu ashruna elira its price is00:53:16
20 liras00:53:18
now it's time for carol's tips00:53:21
after asking for the price we can ask00:53:23
for the number of items we want and00:53:25
combine the words we learned before to00:53:27
make a good sentence00:53:29
it's nine men fought like00:53:31
two please00:53:32
at this point can you change the numbers00:53:34
according to the gender of the noun that00:53:36
follows in arabic we are going to learn00:53:39
how to do this and much more in the next00:53:41

al-arabiya00:53:46
lesson00:53:48
welcome to the ultimate arabic00:53:49
pronunciation guide00:53:52
[Music]00:53:56
in this series you'll master arabic00:53:58
pronunciation proper pronunciation is00:54:00
essential in arabic and in this series00:54:02
you'll learn it in a fast comprehensive00:54:04
and easy way in this first lesson you'll00:54:07
learn about the building blocks of the00:54:08
arabic pronunciation system that will00:54:10
help you in future lessons00:54:12
arabic uses an abjad writing system00:54:15
where each symbol is codified as a00:54:16
consonant all 28 letters in the arabic00:54:19
alphabet are consonants there are no00:54:21
letters that represent vowels in arabic00:54:23
this does not mean that the arabic00:54:25
language lacks vowels altogether though00:54:27
because vowel sounds do exist but they00:54:28
are just implied00:54:30
consider this english example see if you00:54:32
can guess the sentence00:54:36
even without the vowels it's very likely00:54:38
that you figured out that the correct00:54:40
reading of this sentence is he went to00:54:42
the park00:54:43
this is similar to what it's like to00:54:44
read in arabic00:54:46
but be careful not to fall into a very00:54:48
common trap as you're learning to speak00:54:50
correctly you shouldn't concern yourself00:54:52
with all the letters that's right forget00:54:54
them you care about the sounds of arabic00:54:56
and here they are00:54:58
there are 28 consonant sounds and six00:55:00
vowel sounds each symbol that you see00:55:02
here represents a single sound00:55:04
determined by the ipa which is a00:55:06
standardized way to represent sounds00:55:08
without the baggage that's often00:55:10
involved with traditional letters00:55:12
by using all of these sounds you can00:55:13
form every single word in arabic still00:55:16
seem complicated well how about this00:55:18
of the 28 consonant sounds in arabic you00:55:21
already know 19 of the original sounds00:55:24
that's right if you're a native english00:55:25
speaker then you already make these00:55:27
sounds every day00:55:28
you can also ignore all of the vowel00:55:30
sounds for the same reason00:55:32
the only thing standing between you and00:55:34
perfect arabic pronunciation is nine new00:55:36
consonant sounds you can handle that00:55:39

some special topics that will really00:56:33
make your arabic sound natural00:56:35
to wrap up this lesson here's a question00:56:37
for you00:56:38

have picked up00:56:58
what is the hardest part of arabic00:57:00
pronunciation tell us about it in the00:57:01
comments hi everyone welcome to the00:57:04
ultimate arabic pronunciation guide00:57:08
[Music]00:57:12
in this lesson you'll learn the top 500:57:14
arabic pronunciation mistakes to avoid00:57:17
these are common mistakes that students00:57:18
of arabic tend to make so pay close00:57:20
attention and make sure that you don't00:57:22
make these same mistakes too are you00:57:24
ready then let's get started00:57:26
number one00:57:27
can't pronounce rolled rs00:57:29
the arabic r is a challenging sound for00:57:32
most learners of arabic don't be00:57:34
discouraged though as it is a naturally00:57:36
difficult sound00:57:37
many arab children have difficulty00:57:39
pronouncing this sound with enough00:57:41
practice however you'll be able to00:57:43
overcome it the only way to solve this00:57:45
problem is to keep listening to native00:57:47
arabic speakers and practicing it00:57:48
yourself or practicing with us00:57:51
listen to the following examples00:57:58
we'll teach you how to perfect this00:57:59
complex sound in lesson six00:58:02
number two mispronouncing the l sound00:58:05
the arabic l sound is peculiar because00:58:07
it sounds somewhat like an english l but00:58:09
not exactly00:58:11
the problem arises when speakers begin00:58:13
substituting the english l for this00:58:15
sound and when you do native speakers00:58:17
will notice immediately that arabic is00:58:19
not your native language listen to00:58:21
perihan and pay attention to the way00:58:23
it's pronounced in the following words00:58:30
unlike the english l the tongue is ever00:58:32
so slightly flatter and straighter in00:58:34
arabic don't worry if you don't get it00:58:36
right away because we'll break down this00:58:38
sound in lesson 5.00:58:45
many learners tend to confuse these two00:58:46
sounds because both are throaty sounds00:58:49
that are uncommon in western languages00:58:51
the first sound sounds like a deep and00:58:53
turbulent sound that rumbles far in the00:58:55
throat you'll have to retract the back00:58:57
part of your tongue into your mouth to00:58:58
cause constriction in your throat00:59:00
this sound is arguably the trickiest00:59:02
sound in arabic but don't give up you'll00:59:04
master it with practice00:59:06
the second sound is actually deeper in00:59:08
the throat than the first so deep in00:59:10
fact that it causes the vocal cords to00:59:12
stop momentarily causing a buildup of00:59:14
pressure it's the sound you make in00:59:16
between the a and o in00:59:20
listen to both of these sounds in a few00:59:22
examples00:59:31
we'll teach you all you need to know00:59:32
about these two sounds in lesson seven00:59:35
there are many dialects in arabic so00:59:38
much so that it often feels like each00:59:39
dialect is like a language in its own00:59:42
this can be daunting for new learners00:59:44
because there are just so many options00:59:45
that it's hard to decide which dialect00:59:47
to learn00:59:48
this letter for example is pronounced00:59:50
like the j in jam in standard arabic and00:59:53
in most dialects except for the egyptian00:59:55
dialect the egyptian dialect however is00:59:58
one of the most widely understood00:59:59
dialects of arabic because of the wide01:00:01
popularity of egyptian media and movies01:00:04
in egyptian arabic this letter is01:00:05
pronounced like a regular english g as01:00:08
in game01:00:09
let's listen to the difference one more01:00:10
time in standard01:00:18
of course both pronunciations are01:00:20
correct the key thing is to be01:00:22
consistent with your pronunciation01:00:24
there are two tricky aspects about this01:00:26
letter the first is that it's a unique01:00:28
sound that does not exist in many01:00:30
languages01:00:31
let's listen to how it's pronounced in01:00:32
the word time in standard arabic01:00:41
the second aspect is that this letter is01:00:43
pronounced differently in different01:00:44
dialects the previous pronunciation01:00:47
occurs in standard arabic and in the01:00:49
arab countries of northwest africa like01:00:51
morocco algeria libya and tunisia in01:00:54
egyptian and levantine dialects this01:00:56
letter is a glottal stop like the01:00:58
stopping sound in uh-oh01:01:00
compare the pronunciation of this letter01:01:02
first in standard arabic and then an01:01:04
egyptian dialect01:01:15
now you know the top five arabic01:01:16
pronunciation mistakes to avoid try to01:01:19
be careful so that you don't make the01:01:20
