What do you know about Arabic Language

Arabic Language is one of the Semitic Languages and it has more speakers than any other language. It is spoken in the Middle East countries. It is the official language for 22 countries and it is the liturgical language of Islam since it is the language of Quran, the Islamic Holy book.




Arabic has many different, geographically distributed spoken varieties, some of which are mutually intelligent.



Tha Arabic alphabet contains twenty eight letters consisting of consonants and long vowels, and fourteen symbols that functions as short vowels and pronunciation markers, or as markers of certain grammatical functions.




This chart shows Arabic Alphabets, the way to pronounce them and the different ways for writing them.

**: letters with stars can only connect with other letters placed before them and not after; which means that if a letter is placed after them, these letters should take a form as if it was placed at the beginning of the word.

Special Charecteristics of Arabic Script:
