This series, ‘Arabic Reading and Pronunciation for Beginners’, is intended for students of Arabic who know the alphabet and vowel sounds, can recognise the letters wherever they appear in a word, and have begun to read simple Arabic words and phrases. It is well-suited to students who have completed my ‘In Just Eight Lessons, You Can Read Arabic’ YouTube series, as well as those who have finished my ‘Arabic from the Beginning Part One’ series.
Arabic learners often ask me for more reading practice opportunities so, in this series, I will explore some short sentences, paragraphs and stories to help you to practise your reading skills. In the process, I will explore some aspects of Arabic grammar and sentence structure, as well as helping you to build up your vocabulary in a clear and simple manner.
In this first lesson, I examine similar sounding words in Arabic to help you to distinguish between those letters that may sound alike to the untrained ear. For example, can you hear the difference between the Arabic words for ‘brain’ and ‘food’? You can imagine the potential for misunderstanding! I hope you enjoy this new series and find it beneficial.
