The 20 Most Important Facts about the Arabic Language

For non-native speakers wishing to study Arabic

1. Arabic is written from right to left.

2. The Arabic alphabet consists of 28 letters.

3. Most Arabic letters are connected when written in words.

4. There are six letters that do not connect to the letter after them (ا، د، ذ، ر، ز، و).

5. Each letter has up to four forms: isolated, initial, medial, and final. Don’t worry, they look similar. The change is only to make the letters connect smoothly.

6. Arabic has short vowels written as small marks above or below letters. In daily Arabic writing, we usually don’t write them, except in some special cases. Don’t worry.

7. Arabic also has three long vowels: ا (ā), و (ū), and ي (ī).

8. Arabic has 28 basic sounds (phonemes), and some of them do not exist in English, like ‘Ayn (ع) and Qaaf (ق).

9. Verbs in Arabic are conjugated with pronouns, similar to French.

10. There are two main genders in Arabic: masculine and feminine.

11. Arabic has a special form for dual (two people or two things), in addition to singular and plural.

12. The verb “to be” in the present tense is usually not written. Example: ana (أنا) = I → ana, doctor =(طبيب)doctor → tabib (أنا طبيب) = I am a doctor.

13. Arabic uses a root system: most words come from three-letter roots that carry a basic meaning.

14. In Arabic, adjectives follow the noun and agree with it in gender and number.

15. Arabic has both formal language (Modern Standard Arabic) and many dialects used in daily life. At our institute, we also teach a mixed colloquial Arabic that Arabs from different nationalities use to understand each other in daily life.

16. Object pronouns are attached to the verb. Example: sa‘adt-ha (ساعدتها) = I helped her.

17. Possessive pronouns are attached to the noun. Example: kitab (كتاب) = book, kitab-ka (كتابك) = your book, kitab-hu (كتابه) = his book.

18. Arabic has a special sound ‘Ayn (ع) which does not exist in English.

19. Arabic has emphatic consonants (like Ṣād, Ḍād, Ṭā’, Ẓā’) pronounced with a deeper sound. For example, Ṣād (ص) sounds close to the “c” in the word façade.

20. In Arabic, questions can be made by adding a simple particle at the beginning, such as hal (هل) = Do/Is…?
