The video showed that the word سر means "to go" but when I searched it myself, the meaning came as "a secret or mystery" now i am confused. What does it actually mean? and what is the difference between سر and ذهب?

I’ve been a revert since October 2023. Recently, I’ve been expressing interest at some point of the possibility of learning Quranic Arabic because I’ve only read the Quran in English. Would it be beneficial to learn it via an app or just a tutor? The last time, I went to Junnah, and the Imam went from speaking English to Arabic (I don’t know the dialect) but I didn’t understand him. Arabic seems like a deep, nuanced language. I’m a little hesitant about learning MSA or a different dialect.

Kayf yu'abbiru ar-raml 'an hubbin lil-reeh?

How can I improve this? Is my handwriting legible?

Arabic Practice

The letters are so tiny, everything looks the same it has been a week and still I feel like I only know alif :(

Just a small tip for people who are Arabic learners and like video games. Mirage has great localisation, and if you want you can even read stuff like this to get historical background and practice at the same time. Voice acting is good but it's in pretty formal fusha, so maybe not great for dialect learners.

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
I would say I’m at an intermediate level/close to advanced hopefully in speaking and understanding. I just don’t know how to reach that next level. I see myself still getting stuck when I speak, speaking correctly to some people then not being able to speak to others. Any tips to truly reach fluency and this is in understand and speaking Fusha Arabic & any helpers who have mastered or are fluent in Fusha?

Hi.so i want to learn arabic ,and I don’t want to learn standard arabic(but i know basic words and verbs as they teach us that at school.)also my mom and my dad speak Arabic but can’t get them to talk to me in arabic.
What are shows,youtube channels (preferably female youtubers)or things that i can learn khaleeji Arabic with?

I am a Muslim and I want to understand Quran ofc . Also, I already know how to read and understand something from Quran

..

There was a post where a arabic text was in spaces and backwards and thought it was so unbelievably funny but there was another where it was on games too

So I have just recently learned like 10 ways to say "when" non-interoggatively
(حين حينما عند عندما إذ لمّا)

Mainly I am concerned with حين حينما and عندما عند, which many sources claim are 100% synonymous

The examples my tutor gave me implied a difference in causality and time-specificity that doesnt reflect in example sentences i find online

Please help 🥲

If your phone included a keyboard of Arabic before installing the update, a new keyboard will be included with the title “العربية” (A -> ع)

This update lets you transliterate Arabic words but there is something very good about this. It has a row of English Numbers. It’s purpose is to type letters in Arabizi text for those who memorized it. It also accounts for dialectal pronunciations. Levantine people don’t pronounce the qof, so writing words like albi transliterates to qalbi. Egyptians say the jeem as a g, so it transliterates to jeem when g is pressed. This feature is also good for Arabic learners since they can type a word how it is said without mixing up two similar sounding letters, and see what letter it uses.

Essentially they mean the same thing. What purpose does هِيَ serve in the structure and in the meaning (nuance)?

"iHola a todos! Les presento mi

of Arabic I've written in my entire

language before. Plus, I wrote this

final page completely freehand

and from right to left, just like a

Im currently reading about the epic of the Banu Hilal in Al Kitab part 3. I wondered if any English translation existed but could not find any online. Does anyone know if an English translation exists? If not, how is that possible?

Greetings to all. I'm going to keep this as summarized as possible. I have been learning Arabic for a long time now. I can't say I was ever active for more than a week at a time, but I've come a long way. I can understand when I'm being spoken to (I grew up watching spacetoon, toyor al janah/baby, mbc 3 and CN in Arabic). Whenever it's my turn to speak, I suddenly don't know any Arabic. I have a pretty decent vocabulary. I don't know what the problem is. It's the same thing with reading. I can read with harakat else I struggle to read basic sentences.

Everything I know is self taught. I haven't been able to start learning grammar and all those stuff because, I had an examination and I don't know where to start. I don't have money to pay for anything. I'm poor. I'm currently focused on MSA and then Egyptian Arabic later. Any advice or recommendation is highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

When someone wants to say that he doesn’t like a specific kind of food.

They don’t say “I don’t like it”.

Instead they say “It doesn’t like me”.

Just out of respect for the grace and to be thankful for Allah. 🙏

And to not seem to refuse what Allah has given you. ♥️
